Meet Racer, an adorable Lab mix puppy and affectionate little shadow who loves being held, cuddling, and following his favorite people. He can be cautious around unfamiliar sounds, but his curiosity soon encourages him to investigate. Racer is food-motivated, smart, and has been a quiet pup who is not much of a barker.

Ideal Home

Racer would love a home where he can stay close to his people and receive reassurance as he continues discovering the world. He is reported to do well with dogs and children, while his compatibility with cats is unknown.

Ongoing Health

The adoption fee includes a microchip registered to 24PetWatch, DHPP, Bordetella, leptospirosis, and rabies vaccines; a 4DX heartworm test for dogs seven months or older; and spay/neuter through a partner veterinarian as scheduled by the rescue. General wellness care includes deworming, heartworm prevention, and flea and tick prevention.

Training & Support

Racer understands “no,” is doing great with potty training, and is making wonderful progress with crate training. His food motivation should help him continue learning.
