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 due to his smaller size and compact body, Chihuahua somehow ended up in the mix. He's a true Texas special! While he's on the smaller side and may not get much bigger, 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. He would do best with another dog that won't immediately overwhelm him or come on too strong right away, but once comfortable, he absolutely enjoys having dog friends to play and lounge around with.

Ongoing Health

Sirius is 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. He's still innocent and looks to others for reassurance while he figures things out.

Training & Support

Sirius is already quite polite and well-mannered for such a young puppy. He LOVES treats, already knows how to sit, and patiently waits his turn for treats. He is crate trained, potty trained, and has lovely house manners overall. Like any puppy transitioning into a new home, he may need reminders about appropriate potty spots initially, but he has an amazing foundation. He enjoys playing and exploring but isn't an over-the-top chaotic puppy that needs constant entertainment. He has a nice, well-balanced energy where he can have fun and then settle down beautifully afterward.
