My story

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

These two girls are actively looking for a forever or foster home because unfortunately their owner suddenly passed away. Harper & Lilly are both a little over 7 years old lab mixes.

From 4 Paws Unleashed, where the girls currently reside-
🏡I have personally taken these girls home for a week and they are both super easy going dogs. Fully potty trained, they were walked on leash their entire life for potty breaks so they are use to doing their business and coming back inside. I have a fenced in yard and they also did great with that. I have 2 boys (9 & 6) who are loud and entergetic. The girls did great with them. I also own 2 black labs who are young, wild and super playful. Both girls slept a lot but also played with my dogs when they were in the mood to. In an attempted adoptive home, the dogs did not get along with the resident dogs. It may be best for them to go to a home as only dogs. They do bark when someone first arrives at the house but settle quickly. They are very attatched so they do insist to be together or within sight of one another. When leaving the house they do not need created as they just hang out together. However they are crate trained if you prefer they be crated. Harper and Lily’s adoption fees have been waived for an approved adopter.All adoptions are $300 per dog for puppies under 1 year, $250 for adults 1 - 9 years old and $150 for senior dogs which include spay/neuter, micro-chipped and up-to-date on required shots.

Senior dogs, at our discretion, are adopted out at $150 per dog because we know they will have less time with your family and may eventually have more needs as they get older. But we feel these dogs deserve to live out the rest of their lives as part of a loving family.
