Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Name: Girl (20220506-04)
Weight: 63 pounds
Age: 1-1.5 year
Gender: Female
Spayed/Neutered: Yes
Breed: lab mix
Colour: black
Neck size (for collar): About 18 inches in diameter
Height (from top of head): 20 inches
Length (from nose to base of tail): 35 inches
Crate size recommended: Large
Good with women: Yes
Good with men: Yes
Good with kids: Yes but not sure about little ones
Good with other dogs: Yes
Good with cats: Yes
House trained: Yes
Crate trained: Yes, she is comfortable in a medium crate
Energy level: Medium to Higher - Lots of energy when she is awake but she is learning to chill for longer periods
Can be handled/touched: She loves to be petted and we are working on keeping our feet on the ground when she gets excited.
Barker: Only barks at the rabbits when she realizes she can’t get to them
Flight risk: Yes, she needs a fence or supervision as she will wander off
Food aggressive: She will guard her food from another dog but doesn’t seem aggressive if I take it away from her
Current food: Purina Pro Plan Adult – Chicken
Walks on leash: Yes
Leash reactive to people or dogs: She has a strong prey drive and can get hyper focused on the many rabbits and birds in the yard. It takes some convincing but she will refocus on me with some effort.
Rides well in car: Yes, she will lay down while driving
Destructive: She will tear up soft toys, she likes to dig if left alone too long. Anything on floor is fair game. Loves to chew on bones and really enjoys the treat ball game.
Needs a home with a yard: Yes, preferably a fenced yard as she will wander off with no regard for where she is going. I keep her leashed in the yard as she is still learning the “come” command.
Needs a home with another dog: Not necessarily, she loves to be the centre of attention and will worm her way into your lap if you aren’t giving her your full attention. She does play with my dog and knows when to get her nose away from the cat.
Can live in an apartment: Yes but she will need lots of exercise
Temperament: Loves everyone, wants to cuddle.
History: From a home in Cross Lake. Gave birth to eight puppies recently. I had her for just over a month and she bonded with me quickly. Absolutely loves tummy rubs.
Foster comments; Girl would make a great companion for a single person. She will wait patiently for you to come home and will smother you with all kinds of affection when you do. She is okay with my dog and cat but would also be okay as the only animal in the house.
We are going to work on our obedience training but I know how to sit and will come quickly when called in the house.
