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

Description

Dog Breed: Labrador Retriever / Shepherd / Mixed (short coat). Adoption Fee: 395. Meet Keropi! Keropi is a handsome 6 month-old, 25 lb bundle of joy who has truly blossomed in his foster home! Once a shy little guy, he’s now discovering that life is full of fun, love, and adventure. He greets each day with a wagging tail, playful curiosity, and growing confidence. He loves to play—especially with his toys and his foster sister, Kairi! He’s very social with other dogs and would thrive in a home with another friendly pup to show him the ropes and keep him company. He follows his canine friends everywhere and takes comfort in their example. He’s doing great with crate time and continues to work on potty training (he sometimes thinks potty pads are chew toys, so frequent trips outside help!). Keropi’s also learning good manners like what’s okay to chew. He’s still a young pup, eager to learn, and responds well to patience, consistency, and gentle guidance. This sweet boy is also doing better with loud noises and handled his recent grooming appointment like a champ! He’s not a big fan of nail trims yet, but he’s improving as he gains confidence. His skin and coat are looking wonderful now, and he’s healthy and active. Keropi has a special story of resilience. He was abandoned in a cardboard box at just a few weeks old, weak and fighting to survive. Thanks to his devoted rescuer who bottle-fed and nursed him back to health, Keropi is now a happy, affectionate, and loving pup ready for his forever family. He bonds deeply once he trusts you and will be your loyal companion for life. If you’re looking for a playful, sweet, and gentle soul to grow with, Keropi is your boy.
