My personality

My story

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

I'm a 13-month old Labrador Retriever mix. I love running behind my people all day long at home! I love going to dog parks and playing with other dogs. Fresh cut grass and digging gives me the zoomies! I enjoy greeting people, but my excitement frequently gets the best of me, and I can't help but jump up to say hello. I am working on my speaking skills but sometimes I have to let you or the dog walking by know what's on my mind. I am a quick learner, though, especially when treats are involved. Sit? Stay? Heel? Come? Easy peasy! Treats are my weakness, and I'd do just about anything for a tasty reward.

I'm great at listening and anytime there are treats involved, you have my fullest attention! I need some help with leash training as I can get super excited when seeing other dogs. I am potty trained and crate trained but taking me out after a big chug is always a good idea! I am a puppy so I cant hold it for long.

I love playing with other dogs at the dog park. I would do fine with another dog at home or I may be okay on my own with my humans as long as I have an outlet for my energy. I'm not too sure about cats. I have not had a lot of experience with kids but I love all people and love getting rubs and scratches! I am a little jumpy so maybe older children would be best.

I love squeaky toys and enjoy a good tug of war with ropes.

My ideal home would be where I have a fun group of people/dogs who can take me on long walks, to the dog parks and play with me! I can get bored sometimes and find things to chew on but I think it's just me being a puppy. I can't wait to meet my forever family!

My Adoption Fee includes a training program specific for my needs.
