Meet Linux, a brilliant 2-year-old male lab mix on a quest to find his forever home. This tech-savvy pup brings a mix of intelligence, charm, and a heart full of love. If you're looking for a loyal companion with a touch of adventure, Linux is the perfect match! Linux is not just good with dogs; he's a social butterfly, making him an ideal playmate for furry friends. While he's generally good with cats, occasional playful chasing might be on the agenda. With proper introductions and guidance, Linux can build positive relationships with feline friends. Linux is not just a charming face; he's a smart cookie! He knows essential commands like "sit," "leave it," and "crate," showcasing his eagerness to learn and please. His familiarity with the crate extends beyond training sessions; he fosters his crate when the family is away, ensuring a secure and comfortable retreat. Linux is adaptable to various living situations, thriving in both active and relaxed environments. His fostered crate behavior reflects not only his obedience but also his sense of security when his humans are away. This makes him an excellent companion for those with busy schedules. When it comes to affection, Linux is a pro. Whether it's cuddle time on the couch or playing in the backyard, he's all in for quality bonding moments. His loving nature makes him an excellent fit for families and individuals alike. If you're ready to welcome Linux into your home, apply at ITVrescue.org. The adoption process includes ensuring a suitable environment for Linux's happiness and ongoing positive development. Bring Linux into your life and experience the joy of a loyal, tech-savvy companion. Adopt, don't shop, and let the adventure begin with Linux by your side!
All of our dogs are examined by a veterinarian, given age-appropriate vaccinations, dewormed, microchipped, spayed or neutered, heartworm tested and treated if necessary.
