Jafar is a lovable, medium-energy, 1-year-old Labrador retriever mix who weighs about 36lbs. He has an incredibly soft coat and an equally gentle heart. Jafar is fantastic with dogs of all sizes and has a respectful and friendly play style. His polite tail wag and single greeting bark make him a hit with canine friends both on and off leash. With people, he’s a bit more reserved; he wasn’t well-socialized early on, so strangers can be overwhelming at first. But with patience and a calm introduction, he warms up and shows his affectionate, cuddly personality. Because he can get a little mouthy when excited, he’s better suited to a home with older children. On walks, Jafar stays close and doesn’t pull, taking in everything around him. He is also potty and crate trained. He shares toys well and loves playing with them, even if they don’t always survive his enthusiasm. He has also learned how to sit on command. Jafar would do best in a moderately active home with another friendly, confident dog to help boost his confidence and help him feel brave in new places. If you’re looking for a pup who will grow into an amazing companion with your guidance, Jafar is ready to meet you… from a respectful distance at first, of course.
