Story

Meet Ash! 🐾 Ash is a nine-month-old Great Pyrenees mix with a stunning black-and-white spotted coat and the softest, fluffiest furry ears you’ve ever seen. Like many puppies, Ash had a rough start—he and his brother were abandoned by their first family—but those days are behind him now. He’s safe, loved, and thriving with a foster family. Ash is a classic happy puppy: affectionate, playful, and full of gentle charm. He gets along wonderfully with other dogs and truly enjoys being around people, soaking up attention and cuddles whenever he can. His Great Pyrenees side gives him a sweet, loyal nature, while his puppy side keeps life fun and joyful. Ash is currently available for adoption through A Lab for Life and is ready to find a forever family who will give him the love and stability he deserves. If you’re looking for a friendly, loving companion to grow up with, Ash might be your perfect match. 💙

Story

Just in time for some wintery weather here’s POLAR BEAR 🤍 Sweet POLAR BEAR is just under a year old which is hard to believe since this big guy is close to 100lbs! POLAR BEAR came to our rescue from an accidental litter born to a family who lived on a farm. He and his siblings spent the first ten months of their lives roaming the farm land which was very unsafe for a multitude of reasons so A Lab for Life was contacted to help these sweet pups out. Since moving in to his foster home POLAR BEAR has really been enjoying the indoor life! He’s gotten a bath which was not his favorite. He’s gotten lots of love and attention which is definitely his favorite. Despite being given very little training in his early months, POLAR BEAR has picked up potty training with no problem. He is left to roam in his foster house and has had zero issues. POLAR BEAR loves to play with other dogs both big and small. He’s been around kiddos as well and is very gentle despite his size. POLAR BEAR is definitely a velcro dog. He wants to be wherever his foster dad is and he’s even tried out being a lap dog a time or two. He can often be found placing just one paw on his foster dad’s leg and then slowly the rest of him tries to follow. This sweet boy just loves to be loved. He’s happy to sniff around and go for walks but he could use some leash training as he can pull a bit. POLAR BEAR is a gentle giant who would be a good fit for someone who has the space to love such a big happy guy! Could that be with you?
