Description
Posted Breed: Labrador Retriever. Age: 4 years Sex: Spayed Female Estimated Breed: Lab X Weight: 36 lbs Good with dogs?: Yes Good with cats?: Yes Good with children?: Yes Special/Medical Needs: No Energy Level: Medium Adoption Fee: $650 Foster Home Location: Calgary Trueno is a total sweetheart, great with other dogs, pays no attention to our cat and absolutely loves all humans! Trueno would do best in a semi-active home with another dog to play with, or as the only pet. She's happiest being by your side! Always down for an adventure, would make a great hiking buddy, but can also relax and cuddle on the couch. She'd make a great agility dog with her speed and ability to jump like a gazelle! Leash skills could use some work, the initial walk with her was a bit chaotic but after a couple minutes she calmed down. We passed by other dogs and she didn't react. I think the only thing she's afraid of is large delivery trucks, easily spooked when they drive by, happiest not walking along busy roads. I'm sure with some time she'll realize passing cars aren't going to hurt her. Sleeps in her kennel at night and only whimpers for a minute or two before settling, I know she'd be much happier in our bed. We've yet to hear her bark, even when the other dogs go nuts hearing the doorbell. She's had a couple accidents inside, but gets regular potty breaks and is picking it up quickly. If we didn't already have 2 dogs, Trueno would be staying, she would make a great family dog!

Overview:
The Labrador Retriever, a beloved and highly popular breed, originated in Newfoundland, Canada, where they were initially bred to assist fishermen by retrieving nets and stray fish. Physically, they are medium-to-large dogs, known for their strong, athletic build, short, dense, weather-resistant double coat (commonly seen in black, yellow, or chocolate), and their distinctive "otter" tail. Temperamentally, Labs are celebrated for their friendly, outgoing, and good-natured disposition, making them exceptional family companions. Their intelligence and eagerness to please contribute to their trainability, though they do require consistent exercise to prevent boredom and destructive behaviors. While adaptable, their energy levels make them more suited to homes with yards, or highly active families, rather than apartment living, unless daily extensive exercise is guaranteed. Regarding health, Labs can be prone to certain conditions like hip and elbow dysplasia, and some eye conditions, so responsible breeding practices are crucial. Overall, their loyalty, versatility, and affectionate nature firmly establish the Labrador Retriever as a wonderful addition to many households.
