My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Nexus is a laid-back, loveable 10 ½-year-old Chocolate Labrador who adores water and slow, relaxed outdoor time. He’s friendly with other dogs and happiest when he has company—he doesn’t do well left alone for long periods. Greteman Ins & Realty has kindly sponsored his adoption fee.

Personality and behavior
• Temperament: Calm, affectionate, easygoing
• Energy: Moderate — loves swims and relaxed walks; enjoys sniffing and moseying rather than high-intensity exercise
• Dog socialization: Good with other dogs; enjoys canine company
• Separation: Dislikes being alone; best in homes where someone is home often or where another dog provides company

Ideal home
• Household with someone who can provide regular companionship (work-from-home, flexible schedule, or another dog)
• Access to safe water for swims or regular trips to a dog-friendly lake or pond
• Home with a fenced yard or regular leashed outings for his moseying adventures

Care notes
• Likely thrives with daily walks, play in water, and gentle training/positive reinforcement
• Regular social time with people and other dogs will keep him happiest
• Ask the shelter about Nexus’s current vaccinations, spay/neuter and microchip status before adoption
