SCARLETT - BLACK LABRADOR RETRIEVER / MIXED (MEDIUM COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Black Labrador Retriever / Mixed (medium coat). Adoption Fee: 400. Meet Scarlett! Scarlett is a beautiful 50 lb 1-year-old black Lab mix with a calm, loving personality and a whole lot of charm. She’s been doing really well in her foster home and has proven to be a pretty chill girl indoors—especially after getting her daily exercise. She currently enjoys long walks (about 6 miles a day!), which helps her stay relaxed, happy, and well-mannered inside the house. At home, Scarlett settles in easily and is a dream overnight. She sleeps soundly in her own bed next to her people all night without any issues. While she’s still learning that crates can be a positive place, her foster family is gently working on it using scatter feeding and low-pressure exposure, and she’s making steady progress at her own pace. Scarlett is alert and engaged with the world around her. She’ll sometimes bark when she notices dogs passing by or when out on walks, and she has a classic Lab-style prey drive—rabbits and the occasional squirrel are just very exciting! She’s already working on her leash manners and impulse control, and with continued consistency and training, she’ll keep improving. She would be happy as the only dog soaking up all the attention, or she could do well with another dog companion given proper introductions. Scarlett is a wonderful mix of active and easygoing, making her a great fit for someone who enjoys daily walks and wants a loyal, affectionate companion to relax with at the end of the day. If you’re looking for a sweet, steady, and loving girl to join your life, Scarlett may be your perfect match If you are interested in adopting/meeting this pup , please complete our online adoption application that you can find here: .starfishanimalrescue/adopt/dog-adoption-application .
