Labrador Retriever puppies and dogs in Lakewood, Washington

Hi, my name is Gandi and I would love to meet you. I have been at the shelter since May 11, 2024. I’m the life of the party, especially when there’s water around! I absolutely love splashing in the pool and exploring the world with my curious, playful personality. Going for walks is another one of my favorite things—I’m a great companion on leash. If you`re looking for a fun-loving buddy who’s always up for an adventure, I’m your guy!

Hi, my name is Yuri and I would love to meet you. I have been at the shelter since Aug 15, 2024. I’m a fun-loving pup who loves making new friends in dog playgroups at the shelter. In my foster home, I get to play with my foster dog sister and it`s the best! My foster paw-rents say I’m super eager to please, and I’m working hard on my training to be the best companion for you. I can`t wait to meet you and show off all the love I have to give!

Hi, my name is George and I would love to meet you. I have been at the shelter since Nov 13, 2024. New people and places can be a little scary sometimes, but when I warm up you’ll see my personality bloom! I know that with you by my side, you’ll see my confidence grow every day. I would love to go through life with you as my person!

We LOVE Moose(y) but our hectic schedules mean we can’t maintain the care he deserves; we would love a local home, that allows text check-ins and pics. Moose Montgomery Born Dec 15th 2022 Yellow Lab (full) Impulsive but still young enough to successfully TRAIN. Needs a PATIENT and DOMINANT male presence. Four to five 15-20 min walks / day (80min total). Doesn’t understand the concept of fetch; might unintentionally nip when he jumps to grab the toy before it’s ready to be thrown but has been taught a game called two ball, that he understands. Not accustomed to a kennel; kennel training will be new to him. Adult supervision w / CHILDREN due to strength and energy. Also, when anyone, especially a child, has food. Gorgeous, happy, HIGH energy, nosey, busy, suspicious, stubborn, always excited and strong. EAGER to meet anyone. We want an available home, well versed w/ animal care, very patient, where he is adored, wanted, loved, exercised, protected and included.

Zarabi came to us from Texas after being rescued off the streets. She is your typical driven happy labby! She is very treat motivated, good with kids and loves other dogs. She is on the smaller side of labs. She does well in her kennel run at night. Eager to learn and listen. Loves a good game of fetch.

He was a rescue from Texas originally and I got him from a foster family , he’s a good boy who loves to hike and go to the park . I love him dearly but my life just cannot accommodate him anymore and he needs a good home where he can run around and be his regular happy self

Hi im Maple! I was found running the streets of Tacoma, WA until my new people found me. Im a happy girl that loves to be on go-mode all the time, although I do love my share of cuddles. I do well with my foster siblings who are all large dogs and kitty. I know commands like sit, down and paw. Im potty trained and my new people have even crate trained me! When you first leave I may bark a little but once Im settled in I’ll be just fine. I walk well on leash but shouldn’t be trusted off leash unless in a small fenced area. I do have some separation anxiety so I will need some help working through that. The people Im with right now work at veterinary clinic so I’ll come with records and a clean bill of health!

APPLICATION LINK: https://shaynesrescue.com/adoption-application-pet-central-satx/ We must have an application to move forward. Sugar is about 1 yr old (DOB 9/1/23), 21” tall at the shoulder and 33’ long from base of tail to her nose. She now weighs 51#. Her fur is soft and shiny, We think she is a Lab mix…according to the vet. She is a dog needing special care because she is 100% deaf. She gets along great in life depending on other dogs to know when they’re being called for dinner, etc. She is bright and happy and she has been taught a few hand signals for commands. The most difficult part is that you can’t depend on sound to get her attention. Here are the foster’s comments about her personality and behavior: This beautiful young female, Sugar, was a stray who showed up on my acreage in the fall of 2024. Over the course of several days, I could see that she was trying to eat the bark off my trees and was starving. Over the next few days, I put out a bowl of kibble every day. Sugar was leery of my presence and I was leery of hers but I was determined to help her, to rescue her and to find her the loving forever-home I knew she deserved. As it turns out, both of our sense of hesitation was completely unfounded and, from the first day after I contained her in my fenced yard, Sugar, my five other dogs, my husband, and I became the best of friends. Personality/Behavior: * Very gentle, very loving, very peaceful, wants to please her human * Very intelligent, intuitive, interactive and responsive * Responds well to men and women equally * Got along very well with my five other dogs from the first day I found her (male Siberian Husky, male Australian Shepherd, male Pekingese, female Rat Terrier and female French Bulldog) * Intuitively knows which of my dogs she can play with and to what degree * Submissive and respectful to other dogs and people; responds to boundaries * So far, Sugar has been an outdoor dog but I believe she will make a fabulous indoor/outdoor companion in the future * Sugar only barks when she sees a stranger, a deer coming too close the fence, etc. Sugar barks for "good reasons"; she does not bark just to bark. Because she is deaf, Sugar, generally, barks at things she can see and not hear. For example, Sugar does not bark when other dogs bark, when ambulances drive by, fireworks, etc. * Learned how to sit with me using hand signals and treats * I do not know if Sugar is potty-trained because I have not let her in the house. Sugar has never gone to the bathroom in her very large partition nor on the concrete patio. Sugar has only ever gone to the bathroom in the far side of the very large fenced grassy area along with my dogs. I suspect Sugar will learn to be potty-trained very quickly if she is not potty-trained already. * Has never jumped up on people * Very well behaved, smart and has a lot of potential for further training Best Suited For: * Active family who can take Sugar on regular walks * Someone with patience who can work with a deaf dog and who is able to train Sugar to be able to live inside * Sugar is not hyperactive nor does she have the personality traits of a working breed (eg. Siberian Husky). Sugar will thrive in an environment with average activity. This dog is CURRENTLY IN TEXAS and available for pre-adoption.
