Say hello to Scorpion.

The lively eight-month-old Labrador cross puppy is looking for his permanent home through a local adoption service.

Scorpion, who came into care with his brother Prince, is an energetic and loving young dog who needs dedicated training.

Scorpion needs plenty of physical exercise and mental stimulation to keep him happy and out of mischief.

He's clever, enthusiastic and eager to bond.

Given his exuberant personality and tendency to jump up for attention, Scorpion would suit a home without small children or cats while he learns better manners.

His new family should be committed to ongoing training and providing consistent boundaries.

Those interested in adopting must submit an online application and provide photos of their secure yard and fencing as part of the adoption process.
