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

Description

Dog Breed: Labrador Retriever / Mixed (short coat). .pet-tender/adoptionform.htm ​Meet Champion: A Smart, Loyal Boy Ready for His Person ​Champion was born approximately 2020 and is a truly special dog who is looking for a patient, understanding adopter to help him write his next chapter. Rescued from a difficult hoarding situation, Champion spent his early life with very little socialization. Because of this, the world can still feel a bit overwhelming to him. ​He is not a dog who will jump into a stranger's arms right away—it takes time and patience for him to acclimate to new people. But for the person willing to put in that time, the reward is unmatched. Champion is incredibly smart, highly trainable, and intensely loyal once he knows you are his safe haven. ​Champion’s Perfect Match: ​An Adult-Only Home: Because of his background and need for a predictable environment, Champion needs a home without children. ​A Quiet, Low-Traffic Environment: A calm household where he won't be constantly bombarded by new faces or loud noises. ​A Patient Leader: Someone who understands that trust is earned, and who is excited to bond with a clever, devoted dog through training and routine. ​Champion has so much potential and a deep capacity for loyalty. He just needs one person to give him the time he deserves to show it. We have chosen Kuranda dog beds for our boarding facilities because they are so good for our dogs. We still don't have enough for all of our kennels. If you would like to donate a bed so another dog can sleep in proper comfort, please click here.
