About Winter

Meet Winter! This sweet, more relaxed boy is a Lab/Bully mix with an estimated birthdate of April 26, 2026. He and his sister, Summer, were the only survivors of a large litter that fell ill shortly after birth. Thankfully, they received excellent care from the vet staff and are now doing wonderfully and ready for their furever homes! Winter is mostly blind but can perceive light and dark, and he loves to snuggle in pillows and with his person to feel safe and comfortable.

Ideal Home

Winter would thrive in a tranquil home with a quiet, relaxed companion dog or human to sleep with or hang out with daily. He does well with gentle children and would likely be fine with cats.

Ongoing Health

Winter is up to date on all age-appropriate vaccines and prevention, and he has been dewormed. He is mostly blind but has some light and dark perception.

Training & Support

Winter is kennel-trained and house-training well. He benefits from a quiet place to feel secure.
