Description
Dog Breed: Labrador Retriever. Adoptable in: MA, RI, NH, CT, and VT Good with dogs: Yes Good with cats: Unknown, likely yes Good with kids: Yes, dog savvy children Crate trained: Mostly House Trained: Yes Cruz is an athletic dude that absolutely loves to run around with his doggy friends and play keep away with toys. He also enjoys digging holes and exploring the yard. He has a medium energy level and is an excellent work from home buddy; content to play with a doggy friend, or with toys while you work. Cruz loves playing with other dogs of all sizes, both in a group setting and one to one. He has not met a cat yet, but he does not seem to have much of a prey drive so would likely be fine after proper intros. He has met kids and did well with them when allowed to take things at his own pace. He can be shy with new people, so dog savvy/older kids would be best. Cruz will happily go into his crate with a treat and settles quickly. He has had the occasional accident inside it if he has drunk lots of water before bedtime. He walks pretty well on a leash. Cruz will make a great addition to his new family. Could yours be the one he's been waiting for? Please Note: All dogs are posted on our website until they are officially adopted.

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.
