SMOKEY - Labrador Retriever-Unknown Mix Male Dog For Adoption in Pena Blanca, New Mexico, USA

Dog Breed: Labrador Retriever / Mixed (short coat).

Smokey is a quiet dog with a gentle, soulful heart. He came to us from a family living on one of the reservations we work with after suffering a severe injury that required immediate medical attention. Today, Smokey is safe, fully healed, and has no ongoing medical issues. His journey has been long, and he is now ready to be cherished by a family who will love him for the steady, loyal companion he is. Smokey is wonderful with his bedding, always arranging it just the way he likes it. He is polite with his food and clearly appreciates his humans. He is acquainted with older children. He enjoys basking in the sun outdoors, curling up comfortably inside, and will occasionally bark to let you know if something doesn’t sound quite right. For walks and hikes, Smokey prefers a comfortable, secure harness rather than a collar, as his throat and neck were the areas that originally required medical care and can still be sensitive. Smokey’s adoption fee includes his neuter, vaccines, deworming, and microchip. We believe he is about five years old. Smokey would thrive in a home in the Santa Fe, Albuquerque, Rio Rancho, White Rock, or Los Alamos area with a calm person or family who has the patience to let him build trust at his own pace. Once Smokey chooses you as his person/family, he will be your most loyal and devoted companion.

We would love to introduce you to this beautiful boy and help him find the safe, loving home he so deeply deserves.
