My story

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

Sweetpea (A139797) is an 1-year-2-month-old Labradoodle x Husky mix who weighed 46.6 pounds on intake.

12/05/25 Miss Sweetpea is back at the shelter after her most recent owner suffered an inury that prevented them from being able to properly care for Sweetpea. Sweetpea is a very high energy dog that still needs some help with her manners and basic training. She is very food motivated, so enrolling her in a basic obedience class with a certified trainer would be a great place to start! Sweetpea was said to do well with the other extra large dog in her most recent home. She can be shy around strangers, but she is very loving once comfortable! Sweetpea needs some help fine tuning her potty training and also needs a patient and consistent home that can help her feel comfortable in a kennel again. If you think you are that special home for Sweetpea, give us a call!

Foster update: Sweetpea was a delight in foster! She still has a few naughty tendencies and will steal human food if given the opportunity. Sweetpea was also noted to become a bit too rambunctious around the children in the home when they were running and playing. If you have children in the home; this is something to keep in mind. Please read her profile below for more information on how she behaved in her original home setting.

09/25/25 This talkative lady is Sweetpea! Sweetpea was surrendered to the shelter after having an unplanned litter of puppies. Her puppies are now weaned, and she is looking for her new place to call home. Sweetpea was described as a shy but friendly dog that warms up quickly and is motivated by treats! She was said to do well with babies, children, and women but is timid of new people and may bark. Sweetpea was stated to be kennel-trained but is not fully housebroken. She knows the command but is still working on her basic obedience and would benefit from attending a basic obedience class with a certified trainer to build her confidence. Sweetpea does have a few puppy tendencies like digging, chewing, jumping on people, and getting into the trash. She is looking for a patient owner who will continue to work with her. If you are interested in meeting Miss Sweetpea, please let us know!
