My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Woodstock

 

Male, Labrador retriever/terrier mix, Age 11 months (12/25/2023), weight 55 pounds

 

You know, they say you can’t judge a book by its cover, and Woodstock seems to embody that in the most literal way. Not quite "pit" enough for some, and maybe a touch too much for others, he’s the kind of dog that forces you to question your own assumptions. Spend a little time with him, and you'll discover a heart that’s enormous, as deep and soulful as his eyes. He’s the soon-to-be favorite on your couch, not to mention your new go-to snuggle buddy. There’s a quiet determination in the way he’s eager to learn, mastering ‘sit’, ‘down’, and ‘speak’ as if proving a point. He approaches new people and pups with a gentle, almost cautious curiosity, as if assessing whether they’re worthy of his loyalty. But once you’re in, you’re in for life.

Woodstock doesn’t just bring energy to a room; he brings a certain warmth, a comfort that only comes from a dog who’s seen the rough side of life and decided that love is the only way forward. Whether he’s engaging in a lively game of tug-of-war with his pals or acting as the gentle overseer for the younger ones (they’ve all taken to calling him Uncle Woody), he’s got that rare blend of playfulness and responsibility. When the day winds down, though, it’s all about the snuggles. He’ll curl up next to you on the couch, content with a chewie bone, a stuffed toy, and your presence. He’s not too keen on cats or loud kids, making him the ideal companion for someone looking for a quieter home.

The truth is, Woodstock’s story is as big as his heart. Found alongside his brother Snoopy, abandoned and starving, it’s a wonder he’s come so far. Malnutrition left its mark on his left forepaw, but he doesn’t let that slow him down. He runs, plays, and lives with a kind of zest that’s nothing short of inspiring. His paw, slightly malformed from Rickets, may never fully correct, but it’s just a small part of a much larger, braver story. What Woodstock needs now is someone who sees not just his flaws but the journey he’s been on, someone who values the resilience and love he has to offer.
