Meet Spot, an 8-month-old Labrador Retriever mix with a heart as big as his personality! He's neutered, fully vaccinated, and bursting with that joyful puppy energy that makes every day a little brighter. Outgoing, curious, playful, and smart, Spot is the kind of dog who’s always ready for his next adventure—or a cuddle on the couch after. Spot is a total social butterfly with other dogs, and loves to play. He does best with dogs his size or larger (about 40–90 lbs) and would thrive with a canine sibling who can match his moderate-to-high energy levels. At home, Spot is a very good boy. He’s fully housebroken, crate trained, and can be left free-roaming without getting into trouble—no destructive habits here. He lives peacefully with four cats and enjoys playing with them, so dog-savvy cats would be a great match. He can be a bit of a toy hog, so he’s fed separately, but no resource guarding has been observed. This handsome guy loves his toys and long-lasting chews, and tug-of-war is one of his favorite games. He’s affectionate and enjoys sniffing around the world before settling in for cuddles with his humans. After some outdoor time, don’t be surprised if he celebrates with a dramatic somersault onto his dog bed—it’s part of his charm.
Ideal Home
Spot would love an active home with walks, hikes, mental enrichment, and ideally a backyard where he can run and play. He would likely do well with dog-savvy kids.
Ongoing Health
Spot is neutered and fully vaccinated.
Training & Support
On leash, Spot gets very excited about seeing other dogs and can pull, so slow introductions and continued training are important. He’s been working on leash manners using a gentle leader and is making progress, but he’ll benefit from an active family committed to ongoing training. He can also be jumpy when meeting new people, purely out of excitement.
