About Blair (Billie)

Meet Blair, also known as Billie! She's a 16-week-old Lab/Pit mix with a big personality and a whole lot of love to give. Billie is bold, curious, and convinced everyone she meets is her new best friend. She came into rescue with her siblings dealing with a skin condition that caused some hair loss, but she's fully recovered and her beautiful coat is already growing back! She's a playful explorer who loves to "talk" to you and is always ready for an adventure. Billie is fantastic with other dogs and is currently living with a seven-year-old Golden Retriever, whom she plays with constantly. She's also incredibly smart, learning quickly and already mastering commands like "sit" and "come." Billie is about 80% potty trained and is getting better with her crate training and leash walking every day. She's the kind of puppy who will keep you laughing and smiling with her hilarious antics, like her love for watching TV. Billie is expected to grow into a large dog and will thrive in a home where someone is around often to guide her boundless energy and help her become a well-rounded adult dog.

Ideal Home

Billie will do best in a home where someone is around more often than not to guide her and help channel her big personality. She's ready for a family that can embrace her bold, adventurous spirit.

Ongoing Health

Billie has fully recovered from a past skin condition that caused some hair loss. Her coat is growing back in beautifully.

Training & Support

Billie is smart and learns quickly, coming when called and sitting on command. She's about 80% potty trained and lets you know when she needs to go. She's comfortable in a crate for short periods and is doing well on leash. Like any puppy, she will need continued structure, guidance, and consistency as she grows.
