Description
Dog Breed: Labrador Retriever / Chinese Shar-Pei / Mixed (short coat). MEET THOR #8! Thor is a 64 lb senior sweetheart with a big heart. Found tied to a park bench and later placed on the euthanasia list at county shelter after refusing to eat, Thor has been through more than his fair share of heartbreak. But thanks to a loving foster, he’s now rediscovering joy — and he's ready to find his forever home. Despite his age, Thor is still full of life. He loves playing fetch (yes, he even brings the ball back!), enjoys car rides, and finds comfort in his crate and toys. He’s house trained, gentle with older children, and does well with cats. His interactions with other dogs are unknown, so a slow and careful introduction would be necessary. Thor takes time to feel safe and trust new people, but once he does, he’s affectionate, loyal, and eager to please. His ideal adopter will be patient, kind, and experienced — someone who understands that rescue dogs come with history, but also with the most rewarding love. Thor Would Thrive In a Home With: • A calm, patient environment • Older kids or a quiet adult household • No other dogs or very slow intros if present • A secure, fenced yard (6 ft required) • Someone who values companionship over constant activity Thor is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and ready to spend his golden years in comfort, safety, and love.

Breed overview
Overview:
The Lab Pei is a fascinating hybrid breed, blending the distinct traits of the Chinese Shar-Pei and the Labrador Retriever. Originating from designer breed programs, these dogs were developed to combine the Shar-Pei's unique appearance with the Labrador's renowned temperament. Physically, Lab Peis are typically medium-to-large, inheriting a range of features; some may exhibit the Shar-Pei's characteristic wrinkles and a broader muzzle, while others lean more towards the Lab's sleek coat and expressive eyes. Their coat can vary in texture and color, often short to medium in length. Temperamentally, they are generally intelligent, loyal, and affectionate, though early socialization and training are crucial due to potential Shar-Pei stubbornness. They are often good with families that can provide consistent interaction and exercise, but their energy levels can make them less suitable for small apartment living without ample outdoor activity. Health-wise, they may be prone to conditions affecting both parent breeds, including hip and elbow dysplasia, certain skin issues, and eye problems like entropion, making regular veterinary check-ups essential.
