Description
Dog Breed: Labrador Retriever / German Shepherd Dog / Mixed. Meet Meadow! Meadow is a confident, curious, and incredibly sweet puppy who’s ready to grow up in a loving forever home. This ~3-month-old Lab/Husky mix (best guess!) has a short, black, puppy-fuzzy coat and currently weighs about 12 pounds.. She’s made an amazing comeback after a rough start and is thriving! Meadow is smart and eager to learn. While she isn’t fully house-trained or crate-trained yet (she is a baby, after all!), she’s already showing great habits and settles quickly when briefly crated. She even chooses to nap in her open crate sometimes. This little girl loves everyone. She loves snuggles, and is happiest when she’s playing. Whether that’s wrestling with her sister, running around with other dogs, playing tug-of-war, or chewing on her toys, she’s having a good time! Meadow has a fun personality and a few adorable quirks—she’s especially fascinated by feet (human and canine alike!) and has a surprisingly big voice for her size, including the occasional sing-song “ah-woo.” She may bark briefly when left alone, but quickly settles down and often naps. She was found at about 8 weeks old with her four littermates, all cold and underweight. Meadow has bounced back beautifully and is now a healthy, happy puppy with no signs of food guarding or aggression, just enthusiastic excitement at mealtime! Meadow will likely grow into a medium-sized, energetic dog who will enjoy regular playtime and daily walks. She doesn’t require a fenced yard and would do well in a home ready to continue puppy training, provide structure, and shower her with love. If you are interested in Meadow, fill out an application at this link to get the ball rolling - pethavenmn/adopt/adoptable-dogs/dog-adoption-application/ The adoption fee is $550. Adoption fee includes spay/neuter, heartworm/Lyme test, all age-appropriate vaccinations (distemper, rabies, and Bordetella), heartworm and flea/tick preventatives, and microchip implant (including registration). Adoption fees INCLUDE a mandatory sales tax of 7.525%. Age and breed are based on veterinarian and intake professional’s recommendation and not guaranteed as a rescue animal’s history is often unknown. Due to post-adoption services provided, we prefer to adopt within a 150-mile radius of the Twin Cities. However, we will consider up to 250 miles if the foster agrees to travel requirements and staff approval.

Breed overview
Overview:
The Sheprador, a popular crossbreed resulting from the union of a German Shepherd Dog and a Labrador Retriever, embodies many desirable traits from both parent breeds. Originating from designer breed efforts to combine the intelligence of the German Shepherd with the Labrador's friendly disposition, these dogs typically boast a medium to large build with a dense, weather-resistant coat that can range in color. Physically, they often exhibit the Shepherd’s strong bone structure and the Lab’s kind eyes. Temperamentally, Shepradors are generally intelligent, loyal, and trainable, making them excellent companions for active families. They thrive on human interaction and do best in homes with a yard, as their energy levels make apartment living challenging without significant daily exercise. While generally healthy, potential health considerations include hip and elbow dysplasia, common to both parent breeds, and eye conditions. Early socialization and consistent training are key to fostering a well-adjusted Sheprador.
