About Molly

Molly is a 50lb, 1-year-old spayed lab mix who is ready to fill your life with joy, laughter, and endless tail wags! She's a playful, sweet, and fun-loving companion who absolutely adores making new friends, both human and canine. Molly's play style is energetic yet gentle; she loves to romp, run, and engage in playful nibbles to keep the fun going. She's also a master at asking for attention, often using a gentle paw tap or resting her paws on your hands, which she'll reward with sweet kisses and affectionate nibbles.

Molly has wonderful dog manners and greets other pups with a wagging tail and a curious sniff, always showing respect when another dog indicates they're done playing. She's demonstrated her ability to play well with dogs of all sizes, from a tiny Yorkie to a larger Husky. She walks nicely on leash and is building confidence with new experiences, though passing cars can sometimes startle her. Molly is fully house-trained, enjoys relaxing in her crate, and is trustworthy when left loose in the house. She has no history of resource guarding.

Ideal Home

Molly has a moderate energy level that can quickly escalate when playmates are around. She would thrive in a home with another playful dog, or with an active adult or family with playful children who can meet her social and exercise needs. She has met children aged 5 and 9 and was comfortable around them. While she hasn't had extensive interaction with cats, she has remained calm and non-reactive when seeing them on walks.

Ongoing Health

Molly is a spayed female who is up to date on vaccinations.

Training & Support

Molly is house-trained and crate-trained. While she's building confidence with new experiences, gentle exposure and reassurance will help her with things like passing cars.
