My name is Larson!

Introducing Larson!

For those of you who have been holding out for a big boy - here he is in all his glory! Larson will make your couch look small - but he will also make your heart swell!

We got this boy as an emergency surrender. We were actually taking Laser, another Rebel Dog, in for his second eye enucleation surgery when someone rushed in looking to euthanize Larson at our vet. Larson had bit someone because he was suffering from pain in his hind leg. He has a limp - due to painful overgrown dewclaws.

Seeing this happy, goofy, big boy who clearly has a lot of potential, we opted to step in and offered to save his life as a surrender.

Larson has had his dewclaws surgically removed. We are hopeful this will help Larson feel better and that he can live a long life, pain-free in a loving home.

Animals bite when in pain. They almost always tell us that they are going to bite -with whatever language is available to them - prior to biting. We can help them expand their language, but first- it is our job to learn how to read the language they currently have, and help them feel safe around their boundaries and needs.

We find that Larson has great communication skills and is ready to meet his new family very soon!

We are looking for a foster or foster-to-adopt home for him. Interested? His adoption fee is sponsored. Apply here: rebeldogsdetroit.com/applytoadopt
