TUNA - BLACK LABRADOR RETRIEVER / POODLE (STANDARD) / MIXED (MEDIUM COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Black Labrador Retriever / Poodle (Standard) / Mixed (medium coat). Adoption Fee: 450. Hi, I’m Tuna! Do you want to play? My absolute favorite game is catch, and I could play it all day long. I am always ready for an adventure, and my silly name matches my goofy, lovable personality perfectly. Check out this video of me playing with a medium sized pup! I love people of all sizes and want to be around humans as much as possible. Anyone who is willing to give me attention instantly becomes my best friend. I do best with bigger dogs, and with patience and practice I have made great improvements at making new friends. You can even check out a video of me playing happily with a medium-sized pup! I do, however, have a prey drive, so I am not the best match for smaller dogs or cats. When I go on walks, I get very excited and tend to pull because I think the world is just so fun. I wear a gentle leader to help with this. I do not love wearing it, but it helps me walk nicely, and my foster mom says I am a champ when I have it on. I also enjoy my kennel and think of it as my cozy spot to relax. One thing I am still working on is not jumping when I get excited. I just love people so much that I have a hard time containing my happiness. With consistency and guidance, I know I will keep getting better. If you are looking for a goofy, loyal, and adventurous companion who will love you endlessly, then I am your guy. Adopt Tuna, and let’s make every day an adventure together! Tuna is from an Owner Surrender. If you are interested in getting to know this animal better, please fill out an adoption application. An adoption application is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is not a binding contract.
