About Molly

Meet Molly!

Molly is a 50lb, 1-year-old spayed lab mix who is as playful, sweet, and fun-loving as they come. She's a happy girl who absolutely loves to play, whether she's romping with another dog or inviting her humans to join the fun. Her play style is energetic but gentle, and she's always ready for a good time. With people, she'll gently tap you with her paw or rest her paws on your hands to ask for attention, often rewarding you with sweet kisses and little affectionate nibbles. She has wonderful dog manners and is respectful when another dog lets her know they're done playing. Molly walks nicely on leash and is continuing to build her confidence with new experiences; passing cars can sometimes startle her, but she's making great progress. She's fully house-trained and loves relaxing in her crate, but doesn't need to be crated when you're away. She's trustworthy when left loose in the house and has shown no signs of resource guarding. Molly has a moderate energy level overall but quickly kicks it into high gear when there's a playmate around. She's met children and was comfortable around them, and while she hasn't had much interaction with cats, she has remained calm and non-reactive when seeing one on a walk.

Ideal Home

Molly would thrive in a home with another playful dog, but she'd also do well with an active adult or a family with playful children who can help meet her social and exercise needs. She's looking for a family that will embrace her playful spirit, encourage her confidence as she continues experiencing the world, and give her plenty of opportunities for fun, adventure, and love.

Ongoing Health

Molly is spayed and up to date on vaccinations.

Training & Support

Molly is house-trained and walks nicely on leash. Passing cars can sometimes startle her, but she's making great progress with gentle exposure and reassurance. She has shown no signs of resource guarding.
