Sirius Celestial

Sirius looks like someone accidentally hit the "shrink" setting on a Labrador Retriever and honestly? We are obsessed with the results! This boy has the soulful lab eyes, the floppy ears, the lovable puppy personality, and the happy-go-lucky charm everyone adores... just packed into a much smaller body than expected. He's the kind of puppy that instantly makes people smile because everything about him feels soft, sweet, and easy to love. Between the floppy ears that seem to have a personality of their own, the adorable sleepy expressions, and the way he happily rotates between snacks, naps, sunbathing, and playtime like it's his personal life philosophy, Sirius has this incredibly comforting little presence about him that sneaks up on your heart really fast.

Sirius is believed to be a Lab/Chihuahua mix approximately 8 months old and currently weighs 27 lbs. He definitely has the look of a little Labrador, but because of his smaller size and compact body, Chihuahua somehow ended up entering the conversation. He is definitely on the smaller side and may not get much bigger, but with rescue, it's always a mystery and we cannot guarantee breed or age.

Ideal Home

Sirius would thrive in a home with a backyard because he genuinely loves being outdoors. One of his favorite activities is simply laying in the sun soaking everything in and enjoying the fresh air. Continued socialization and exposure to new experiences will be important for helping him continue building confidence, but he already has all the makings of becoming an incredibly well-rounded dog. He would do best with another dog that won't immediately overwhelm him or come on too strong right away.

Ongoing Health

No ongoing health issues to be aware of at this time.

Training & Support

Sirius is still a young puppy and very much learning the world around him, but he has such a naturally sweet and gentle disposition. He can initially take a little time warming up to new people, dogs, and unfamiliar environments simply because he hasn't been exposed to a ton yet. There's absolutely nothing difficult about him whatsoever, he's honestly just innocent. The type of puppy that still looks to others for reassurance while he figures things out. Once he settles in, though, his goofy playful side starts coming out and you really get to see how lovable he is. He is crate trained, potty trained, and has really lovely house manners overall. Like any puppy transitioning into a new home, he may need reminders about where the appropriate potty spots are initially, but he already has an amazing foundation started.
