This dog is currently out of state but will be transported to New England shortly with no additional travel costs. The long distance adoption process includes talking to the foster they are living with in the south. Roughly 90% of our dogs are successfully long distance adopted and 10% adopted locally.

**Please read Jacob's entire profile, which includes a link to the adoption application at the end. Thank you!**

Meet Jacob - an 8 month old, Black Lab / Hound mix, who weighs 40 pounds (as of 8/16/25). Jacob was found as a stray in Tennessee with his brother, Samuel. These adorable boys are looking for their forever families. They are very close and have bonded but would also be fine to find separate families!

His foster shares: "Jacob is a great dog! He seems to be part Black Lab which is only reconfirmed by his happy-go-lucky personality and demeanor. He loves to come with us on hikes through the woods and always stays close to us and comes when he is called. He is a lovable guy who makes friends quickly, loves children, and enjoys being around other dogs. He is so excited to start his next chapter and find his forever family!"

All dogs are up to date on vaccinations and spayed/neutered at the time of adoption. All dogs require professional training to become the best family member they can be.

PLEASE READ: If a dog is listed, then s/he is currently available for adoption. Their information is correct to the best of our abilities and the information we have been given as of the day of posting. From time to time we receive new information/photos of a dog and we do recreate their listing, which means their old listing link will no longer be valid. If you are considering a dog but don't apply right away please make sure to search for the dog by name if the link you have no longer works.

Please note, GDRNE does not guarantee the breed of any dog or puppy unless stated that we have run DNA. All breeds listed are educated estimates. Note that if the dog is listed as an "Out of town pet" there are NOT additional transport fees - it is included in our adoption fee Our dogs are rescued from various situations. It is most likely that both their parents were strays and even if not, mixes of some sort and that their grandparents were mixes as well. The dog may have some genetic material of an American Staffordshire Terrier (pit bull). The dogs are usually mixes of many breeds, making them a breed all their own - a True and adorable American MUTT. If you are interested in this dog, you must submit an application. Great Dog is not a shelter so there is no building you can visit. Our dogs live in private foster homes until adopted.
