My story

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



Meet Nugget — a 7-month-old Labrador Retriever mix who proves that big personalities really do come in bite-sized names.

This young lady is all puppy energy and playful vibes. Nugget is very interested in making dog friends and would love a canine playmate who can keep up with her zoomies and enthusiasm. She’s friendly and great with other dogs, and we’re definitely seeing that social spark here.

Nugget is learning fast! While the leash used to feel a little scary, she now walks pretty well and is all about leaning in for petting once she gets to know you, soaking up affection like the sweet pup she is.

Toys? Oh yes. Nugget will happily chase them… retrieving them is still a “work in progress,” but she’s eager to learn and has a ton of potential!

Nugget is young and ready to keep growing and learning with the right family by her side. She`s a playful, sweet, and energetic companion who will thrive with plenty of love, attention, and exercise.

If you’re looking for a fun, energetic, dog-loving puppy who’s equal parts silly and sweet, Nugget might just be your golden (chicken) nugget!
