JETT - LABRADOR RETRIEVER / MIXED (SHORT COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Labrador Retriever / Mixed (short coat). Jett is a 6-7 month old pup that was found as a stray. We aren't sure exactly what she is except TERRIFIC! She is sweet, energetic, smart, friendly, curious, and a whole list of additional adjectives. She is crate trained and will sleep through the night, usually 8 to 10 hours. Initially she was showed a little food guarding, but that has resolved. She eats in the same room with her 2 foster dog siblings, each at their own feeding station. She knows her spot and will wait until called to come to the spot. She sits to be fed. To say she is a lap dog is an understatement...one of her favorite places to be! She has done well walking on a harness and has been on multiple pack walks with us and with a neighborhood group of several dogs. She will need additional leash training. She tries to pull if distracted and also will wrap you up in the leash if allowed. She rides will in the car and is curious about where you are going. She wants to ride sitting on the console in our truck. She settles for riding with her front feet on the console so she can see out. We have taken her out to several different places and she has done well. She has been friendly and curious everywhere we have taken her. Small children really capture her attention and we think she would be an ideal pet for a young energetic family. She loves to play tug and to wrestle; she likes balls and will chase them some but has not showed interest in fetching.
