Description
Dog Breed: Labrador Retriever (short coat). Lefty started life on the streets of San Antonio, was rescued, adopted, then surrendered and confirmed neglected by our vet. We welcomed him into our home in early 2026, and watched him blossom through months of love and guided training. It breaks our hearts, but our other dogs and Lefty just can’t share a home and he deserves to be someone’s whole world. Lefty is cuddly, loyal, and full of quirky charm. He’s totally relaxed with other dogs on walks and at the dog park, but has sleep startle — meaning he reacts if other dogs approach him while resting at home. He needs to be the only dog in the household. His perfect family is: Single-dog home where he’s the only dog so he can be the main star Active, fully committed owners Committed to continued leash & reactivity training Big on cuddles because that’s where Lefty thrives. He is such a cuddle bug Housetrained, neutered, microchipped & shots current. We are heartbroken to say goodbye but just want Lefty to find a better forever home!

Overview:
The Labrador Retriever, a beloved and highly popular breed, originated in Newfoundland, Canada, where they were initially bred to assist fishermen by retrieving nets and stray fish. Physically, they are medium-to-large dogs, known for their strong, athletic build, short, dense, weather-resistant double coat (commonly seen in black, yellow, or chocolate), and their distinctive "otter" tail. Temperamentally, Labs are celebrated for their friendly, outgoing, and good-natured disposition, making them exceptional family companions. Their intelligence and eagerness to please contribute to their trainability, though they do require consistent exercise to prevent boredom and destructive behaviors. While adaptable, their energy levels make them more suited to homes with yards, or highly active families, rather than apartment living, unless daily extensive exercise is guaranteed. Regarding health, Labs can be prone to certain conditions like hip and elbow dysplasia, and some eye conditions, so responsible breeding practices are crucial. Overall, their loyalty, versatility, and affectionate nature firmly establish the Labrador Retriever as a wonderful addition to many households.
