Description
Dog Breed: Pointer / Labrador Retriever / Mixed (short coat). Adoption Fee: 550. This sweet and spunky girl has an estimated birthday of early May 2026, and at almost 13 pounds, she's already got plenty of personality packed into her puppy frame. Chappy is doing great with potty training — she's even started sitting and waiting at the door when she needs to go out, which is pretty impressive for a girl her age! She's currently working on crate training and does sleep through the night after a little soothing to settle in. Like any curious puppy, Chappy is into everything, and she'll need a family who keeps a close eye on her so household items don't accidentally become chew toys. She loves playing, spending time outside, and cuddling — though always on her terms! Chappy gets along great with small dogs and children, though she does get excited and will need reminders that kids aren't fellow puppies to play-wrestle with. With a little guidance, she's going to be an absolute joy. If you're looking for a sweet, spunky pup to grow alongside your family, Chappy might be exactly who you've been waiting for! 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 . Your application will be reviewed by our team and if it is a good fit, we will be in touch! The adoption fee of $550 will include spay/neuter, microchip, age-appropriate/required vaccinations, treatment for heartworm, and any other necessary medical treatment to ensure a healthy new pup for your family. IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER: Although we do our best to describe the breed, since our pups all come from shelters, we can not and will not make any guarantee on breed or size. We can tell you that they are 100% RESCUED! And that is the BEST breed! *Please note that we are a foster home-based rescue and we do home visits as part of the adoption process - we are unable to adopt to families who live outside of the Chicago and surrounding suburbs. Thank you for your understanding.

Breed overview
Overview:
The Lab-Pointer, a charming crossbreed of the Labrador Retriever and Pointer, originated from the desire to combine the best qualities of both parent breeds. Physically, they are typically medium to large dogs, showcasing a athletic build, often with a short, dense coat in various colors like black, yellow, chocolate, or liver, and sometimes the distinctive Pointer markings. Their temperament is generally a delightful blend: intelligent, loyal, and eager to please like the Lab, combined with the Pointer's alert and energetic nature. This makes them highly trainable, though they do require consistent exercise and mental stimulation to prevent boredom. While affectionate and good with children, their energy levels mean they are best suited for active families with a yard, rather than small apartments. Prospective owners should be aware of potential health concerns inherited from either parent, such as hip and elbow dysplasia, eye conditions, and certain cancers, making responsible breeding and regular vet check-ups crucial for their well-being.
