Shadow is a 1-year-old Lab mix with plenty of energy and confidence. He knows “sit” and “down,” walks well on leash with guidance, and appears house-trained. Shadow is food motivated, curious, and independent—more interested in adventure than constant affection. He did well on a Doggy Day Out, showing good leash manners and enjoying new sights, though he can be a bit reserved with strangers. Shadow is neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped, and is ready for an experienced adopter who appreciates his bold spirit.
