About Slade

Meet Slade! This handsome chocolate Lab is just shy of 2 years old and has striking ember eyes. Slade is an energetic boy who truly shines in one-on-one settings, where his focus and eagerness to engage are clear. While he's still a playful, puppy-like youngster who is learning to channel his energy appropriately, he has all the potential to grow into an incredible companion with the right guidance.

Ideal Home

Slade would thrive in an active home with an experienced handler who understands working-drive dogs. He needs a family that can provide consistent training, clear boundaries, plenty of physical exercise, and mental stimulation through structured activities.

Ongoing Health

No specific health conditions are mentioned in his description. All vetting, including vaccinations, flea prevention, and heartworm testing/prevention, is included in the adoption fee for animals picked up at the Angleton, TX location.

Training & Support

Slade knows "sit" and "down," especially when treats are involved, though he can show a bit of a stubborn streak. His leash manners are decent, but he'll need continued work on his heel command. With consistent reinforcement, structure, and positive training, he has the potential to become an amazing companion.
