Diva is a playful, affectionate, and outgoing 1-year-old Lab mix who weighs about 35 pounds. She's full of pep and love to give, with a tail that's always wagging! Diva adores running, playing, and chasing with other dogs, especially those who can match her energetic spirit. She's just as happy exploring on her own as she is romping with a canine buddy, and she would truly thrive in a home with another dog who shares her zest for playtime.
On leash, Diva is a dream, walking politely without pulling and staying close to her person, making her an enjoyable companion for daily outings. While she tends to ignore cats, she has been known to sneak a bite of their food if given the chance! She hasn't lived with children before, but based on her affectionate and gentle nature, her foster believes she would do well with kids, especially those old enough to manage her enthusiasm (and protect their snacks from her curious nose!).
Diva is crate trained and does well for short periods, typically during meals or when her foster is away. She's very food motivated, which makes her eager to learn new things. However, to avoid any potential food-related squabbles, she should be fed separately. She's a good sharer when it comes to toys and enjoys playing with them without issue. Her personality is outgoing, playful, smart, and affectionate. She loves toys, cuddles, and meeting new people, greeting strangers with friendly, tail-wagging enthusiasm. Diva is still getting comfortable with car rides, so long adventures will require a bit of patience and time. One of Diva's most endearing quirks is how vocal she becomes when corrected; she'll howl as if arguing her case, making it seem like she's holding a charming and funny conversation.
