If you're looking for a playful, sweet, and fun-loving companion, Molly is ready to steal your heart! Molly is a 50lb, 1-year-old spayed lab mix who is eager to find her forever home. She's a happy girl who absolutely loves to play, whether she's romping with other dogs or inviting her humans to join in the fun. Her play style is energetic but gentle; she loves bouncing around, running circles, and giving playful nibbles to keep the game going. 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 affectionate nibbles.
Molly has wonderful dog manners and happily greets other dogs with a wagging tail and a curious sniff. She's been a good playmate to dogs of all sizes, from a tiny Yorkie to a Husky. Molly walks nicely on leash, and while passing cars can sometimes startle her, she's making great progress with gentle exposure and reassurance. She is fully house-trained and enjoys relaxing in her crate, though she doesn't need to be crated when you're away and is trustworthy when left loose in the house. She has shown no signs of resource guarding around food, treats, or toys.
Ideal Home
Molly has a moderate energy level, but her playfulness really shines when she has a playmate. She would thrive in a home with another playful dog and would also do well with an active adult or a family with playful children who can help meet her social and exercise needs. Molly has met children ages 5 and 9 and was comfortable around them. While she hasn't had much interaction with cats, she has remained calm and non-reactive when seeing one on a walk.
Ongoing Health
Molly is spayed and up-to-date on vaccinations.
Training & Support
Molly is continuing to build her confidence with new experiences, particularly with passing cars. Gentle exposure and reassurance will help her continue to make progress.
