APPLE

Meet Apple, a 7-year-old male Labrador Retriever mix who proves that older dogs are just well-aged goofballs. Apple is big, strong, and built like a fridge with legs, but don’t worry—clip on a harness and suddenly he’s a polite gentleman on a stroll. Without it? Let’s just say he’s auditioning for the Iditarod. This guy LOVES treats and takes his job as a professional snack forager very seriously. He’s smart, enthusiastic, and occasionally forgets where fingers end and treats begin, so keep those digits tucked in. Apple knows his manners too! He proudly shows off “sit” and “shake”—and yes, he can shake with both paws, because overachieving is kind of his thing. Most of all, Apple is friendly, affectionate, and happy to soak up attention. He’s the kind of dog who believes every person he meets might be his new best friend (or at least someone with snacks). If you’re looking for a sweet, sturdy, treat-loving companion with a big heart and bigger personality, Apple is ready to roll right into your life.

Ideal Home

Apple would thrive in a home where his love for treats and enthusiastic greetings are embraced.

Ongoing Health

Apple is neutered.

Training & Support

Apple is still working on leash manners, as he can be quite strong when walking without a harness. He also has a tendency to get a little too excited about treats, so it's recommended to keep your fingers safe when offering snacks. He already knows "sit" and "shake," and is a fast learner who loves to please.
