Labrador Retriever Shepherd (Unknown Type)

Story
Willa is a beautiful, roughly 4-year-old, 70 lb Lab Shepherd mix whose world has recently opened up in the best way. Formerly known as Pinky, Willa has spent time in board and train, and with structure, consistency, and space to decompress, her true personality has really come through. Willa is still figuring out how to play, and it is impossible not to smile watching her try. She has endearing, slightly chaotic pounces and “is this how this works?” moments that perfectly capture her personality. She is adventurous, enthusiastic, and clearly making up for lost time. This girl is goofy, jumpy, and mouthy when she’s excited in a very typical, puppy-like way. She may jump up and grab at drawstrings, not in a rough or aggressive way, just in an awkward, excited “I don’t know what to do with my feelings” kind of way. She is actively working on manners and impulse control and will continue to need guidance and consistency as she learns. Willa doesn’t rush into new situations. She observes first, builds confidence at her own pace, and once she feels safe, her playful side comes out in full force. She loves other dogs and truly needs a dog companion in her adoptive home. Having a confident, friendly dog around helps her feel secure and brings out her best self. Willa is crate trained, house trained, spayed, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations. She will do best with an adopter who understands that confidence and manners are built over time and who can continue the structure and training she has started. Because she can be nervous in unfamiliar situations, she will need a secure fence or to be leash walked for safety. Willa has so much life and joy ahead of her. The right home will get to be part of her learning, growing, and discovering just how fun the world can be. If you’re looking for a goofy, dog-loving companion with a big personality and even bigger potential, Willa may be your girl.

Story
✨ Meet Champ — A Big, Scruffy Love with Couch Dreams ✨ Champ is a 70-pound, cream-colored, wiry-haired dreamboat with soulful eyes, scruffy good looks, and the softest heart. Around 2–3 years old, he looks like a delightful mystery mix — maybe Great Pyrenees, maybe Irish Wolfhound, definitely 100% good boy. Champ takes his treats very seriously (respectfully, gently, and with full focus). Once he feels safe, he’ll place his paws in your lap, lean in for affection, and quietly ask for love. Outside the shelter, his sweet, playful personality truly shines. When Champ first arrived, the world felt overwhelming — but this brave boy has made incredible progress. He now enjoys walks and continues to build confidence every day. Loud noises can still be a little scary, so he’d do best in a calmer home where life moves at a gentler pace. 💛 Why we adore Champ: ✔️ Gentle, affectionate, and eager to bond ✔️ Very treat-motivated and fun to train ✔️ Enjoys walks and keeps gaining confidence ✔️ Likes walking alongside another dog ✔️ May prefer being your one-and-only at home ✔️ Would thrive with a fenced yard to stretch his legs ✔️ Firm believer that couches are meant for snuggles Champ is searching for a patient, loving home where he can finally exhale, keep growing, and settle into life as someone’s cherished companion. If you’re looking for a loyal, scruffy sidekick with a heart of gold, Champ is ready to meet you. Come see him at Hopewell Animal Services — his happily ever after is waiting. 🤍🐶

Story
Meet Izzy! This girl was an owner surrender at no fault of her own. She was surrendered with Roscoe and Hemi. She can be dog selective so meet and greets are required if you have another dog. She did live with a cat and did fine. Izzy is around 4 years old. She will be protective of you and the property....just ask our officers hiney, Izzy thought it looked delicious when she was on her previous owners property and decided she wanted a snack, so she does have a bite under her belt with minimal blood drawn. Once she gets to know you and trusts you she is a very sweet girl I mean just look at that face!

Story
Pepper is a 4 and 1/2-year-old black lab German Shepherd mix. She is a very sweet dog who loves people and kids. she loves to cuddle, especially under a blanket. Pepper loves to play with the hose. She will chase the water around for hours. She does well with baths! She does have eczema and I have a medicated bath that I rotate doing with an oatmeal bath for her skin. Especially in the fall it flares up. The only reason why my family needs to set her up for adoption is because our 1-year-old has developed a severe allergy towards her. Pepper has been quarantined to our dining room and unfortunately doesn't get the cuddles and love that she truly needs and has been depressed. If you would love a dog who loves to cuddle and is great with people and other dogs, let me know! I can give the next few months of flea medication, the medicated bath, dog food that we have, and a xl crate as well. She has an allergy to wheat and prefer salmon base food

Story
"Grits – A Big Softie with a Bigger Heart" At 10 years old and 110 lbs, Grits is the definition of a gentle giant. With his calm, steady presence, he’s the perfect laid-back companion. Whether he’s sunbathing in the yard or snoozing at your feet while you relax on the couch, Grits just wants to be close to his people. He’s lived peacefully with other dogs and even cats—his easygoing personality and lack of prey drive make him a lovely match for a quiet home. Grits greets new people with soft eyes and a gentle wag, never in a rush, always composed. These days, his pace is a little slower, and he has some arthritis in his back legs. But he still manages a few stairs, like the four leading into his foster home. When it’s time for a car ride, he’ll place his front paws up to help—you just need to give him a boost for the rest. Belly rubs, treats, and the comfort of being near his humans are his favorite things. If you’re looking for a loyal, mellow friend to share your days with, Grits is ready to warm your heart (and your feet). Must Knows! Dog and Cat Friendly Low energy Has some arthritis in back legs Gentle, calm personality Kids 8+ Wonderful companion Interested in adopting, Complete our adoption application or contact your Adoption Coordinator! https://www.labrescue-richmond.com/adoption-process
