Meet Stormy, a nearly 9-year-old retriever mix with a heart full of love and a personality that’s impossible to resist. While he may not be the typical ball-chasing retriever, Stormy excels in the art of relaxation, preferring short walks, long naps, and hours of sunbathing in the yard. His calm demeanor and food-motivated nature make him an easy companion for someone seeking a low-maintenance, laid-back friend. Though his retriever instincts may not apply to toys, they come to life when treats are involved—he listens well and responds beautifully to reward-based training.
Stormy does come with a few manageable quirks, such as his allergies (corn being one of them), which are kept in check with daily Benadryl and occasional Apoquel. He’s also a champ at tolerating baths, paw washes, and ear cleanings, especially if treats are involved! While he may need a gentle reminder now and then to curb his begging or excitement, he’s eager to please and quick to follow simple commands. Stormy gets along well with other dogs in his foster home and is wonderfully easy to walk on a leash, making him an ideal companion for any lifestyle. One of Stormy’s most endearing qualities is his subtle “talking” bark, a quiet sound to capture your attention, whether he wants to go outside or simply needs a little love. He also has an adorable morning routine with happy stretches and wiggles that belie his senior status. He gets a little anxious around delivery trucks or the front door but has made great progress in training and responds well to commands like “quiet,” especially when treats are involved. With a little patience and understanding, Stormy will continue to thrive in a calm and loving home.
This sweet senior is happiest when he’s lounging near his humans, receiving a good butt scratch, or spending time in his kennel, where he’ll willingly go when tired. Regardless, he brings a sense of peace to every room he inhabits. Whether you have other pets or are looking for a solo companion, Stormy is ready to fill your home with warmth, loyalty, and quiet charm. If you’re seeking a devoted, easygoing friend who will greet you every day with quiet joy, Stormy might just be your perfect match. Want to learn more?
