A little about them
Betsy is a sweet, gentle, nurturing Labrador Retriever mix who is bonded with Mabel and must be adopted as part of a pair. She loves cuddling, carrying stuffies around the yard, walks, playtime, and meeting new people. Found in the Texas bush, Betsy has been steadily learning to trust people and enjoy life as a dog.
Ideal Home
Betsy is friendly with dogs and has done well with dogs at home and off leash. She has lived with a cat and ignored him, though she is not currently living with cats. She is good with children once she warms up and would thrive with companionship and a loving family.
