Story

If happiness had four legs, a wiggly body, and a favorite stuffie, it would be Angel! 🥰 Angel is a 3-year-old Lab mix who seems to have discovered that life indoors, walks, toys, belly rubs, and people are all pretty wonderful things. She is always happy, and when she sees someone she loves, her whole body wiggles with excitement! One of Angel’s favorite things to do is sit by the door with her beloved stuffie, patiently waiting for her people to take her outside. After a good walk, she likes to zoom around with a ball or toy proudly in her mouth. When she’s ready to slow down, Angel is all about the cuddles. She absolutely loves belly scratches and will happily snuggle up with her people for some one-on-one affection. Angel is completely potty trained. She walks nicely on leash and recently joined her foster family at the Crane Boiler Fest, where she loved soaking up all the attention from everyone she met! And Angel’s social skills? Impressive! She has done wonderfully with kids, dogs, cats, goats, chickens, and even house birds. She is a remarkably easygoing girl who is happy to be part of the family. Angel is not much of a barker. Instead, she may give a little whine when she wants attention—which, honestly, is pretty adorable. Her foster mom also suspects Angel may be deaf, the alternative being she has VERY selective hearing and is an exceptionally talented sound sleeper! Angel would love a home with a securely fenced in yard so she can safely enjoy her outdoor time and all those post-walk toy zoomies. Above all else, Angel is a sweet, joyful girl who has so much love to give. She is ready for a family who will cherish her, play with her, spoil her with belly rubs, and let her be the happy, wiggly girl she is. If you’re looking for a loving companion who gets along with just about everyone and is happiest when she’s by your side, Angel may be your girl! Apply to schedule a time to meet Angel in person and start your happily-ever-after together: https://www.carerescue.org/dog-adoption
