Here's what the humans have to say about me:
IZZY is a 2-year-old spayed female black lab. Izzy weighs 30 pounds and is up to date on shots. This dog is approved for homes with children ages 9 and up.
DESCRIPTION Izzy is looking for a home where she can get the love, attention, and exercise she deserves. Izzy has been well cared for and well loved. She is a social girl and is good with dogs, cats, hamsters, and lizards. She has not had any formal training but knows sit, down, wait, up, and easy. This cutie enjoys spending time with other dogs and had a great time when she was boarded briefly at a doggie day care. Izzy loves long walks, hikes, playing chase and wrestling with her family. She doesnt enjoy water but does know how to swim. Izzy loves her people, is a cuddler and prefers to sleep in bed with her owners. She enjoys marrow bones and playing with durable toys. Izzy can jump a 4 foot fence so will need a 6 foot fence if her new owners have a fenced yard. Izzy does not enjoy the smells of cigarette smoke and vaping so she will need a home where this does not occur. From the evaluator: Izzy is a sweet and adorable little girl. She fell asleep sitting up while cuddling with her owners roommate. She is very smart and focused when performing commands. She will thrive with a family that wants to take long walks outside and then come inside and cuddle on the couch. She is the perfect little pocket lab! Izzy was surrendered because her previous owner could no longer take care of her.
Update: Izzy is waiting patiently for her furever home. She LOVES everyone. She is a super snuggler, loves to play and doesn't need to be in a crate! All she needs is a single family home with an active doggie friend and a wonderful human (or two or three) to give her love! Watch Izzy play with her foster sister here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=maCxFeIrN_s. Izzy has been in a foster home without a fence and is doing great, so she can now go to a home without a fence.
Update: Izzy continues to be a love bug. She had a blast meeting everyone at the last adoption day. This is no surprise because she loves people! She greets her fosters at the door with a toy in her mouth, a wagging tail and a wiggling butt! She continues to enjoy snuggling with anyone she can get close to and can't get enough playtime with the resident lab. She is a super good girl. Izzy has been living with a 9 year old child in her foster home and has been doing great, soaking in as much attention as she can from her human foster sibling. She is now approved for ages 9 and up.
Update: Izzy's foster family can't stop talking about how she is such a cute little girl. She LOVES toys, the resident lab and her human foster brother. She's house broken, doesn't need a crate, take treats super gently and LOVES to snuggle. She's just a little bit, weighting only 31lbs. Izzy is looking for a home with another playful dog. She is a true Velcro dog. She prefers to be touching her people at all times unless she is playing, eating or hanging outside. She will greet you at the door with a smile, hugs and pure happiness. She doesn't require a crate and has perfect house manners. She sleeps through the night snuggled in bed and loves the children in her foster home and has been respectful of the cats. She does not appear to have a prey drive of any kind. She loves toys, marrow bones, Nyla bones and romping around. She is such a sweetie!
