Labrador Retriever puppies and dogs in Lynden, Washington

Bear is a handsome Lab/Akita mix with a mellow, easygoing and goofy vibe. He’s happiest lounging for most of the day, but don’t let the chill fool you, he’s always up for a good walk if you are! Bear just turned 7 and has been very healthy with no health concerns. With people and kids, he’s great, calm, and not overly clingy. He enjoys being near you and just hanging out. Bear would do best as the only pet in the home, where he can soak up all the love and attention. We adopted Bear from the Skagit Valley Humane Society in 2022 and have adored having him in our lives. Sadly, our living situation no longer gives him the space and stability he deserves. We are heartbroken to rehome him, but want him to have the best possible life in a calm, loving, and secure home. We would be willing to travel to you if needed.

This 7 year old Lab mix is 56lbs of pure sweetness with a side of sass. She’s spayed, up to dateon vaccines, and ready to move in. She loves people, lives for attention, and believes car ridesare a basic human (and dog) right. Treats are her love language and yes, her hydrolyzed treatsstill earn full tail wag approval.She’s got a few mysterious allergies that are still under investigation. Luckily, hydrolyzed treatswork like a charm, so she can keep enjoying training, snacks, and all the good stuff without anydrama. She’s kennel trained and knows her crate is her VIP lounge, especially at mealtime. She prefersto dine without other pets staring at her plate, which is easily handled by feeding her in herkennel (honestly, same). She’s a professional cuddler, enthusiastic toy collector, and currentlyon a gentle “summer bod” journey with her fosters helping her lose a little extra fluff.She can do well with other dogs, but she likes her introductions slow and polite. Meeting newdogs on a calm walk outside is her ideal setup. Surprise indoor meet and greets or rushedhellos can be overwhelming, so a little structure goes a long way in setting her up for success.She does live with a cat right now, but for everyone’s sanity, a cat free home may be her bestmatch. On walks, she’s a dream in a harness and struts like she knows she’s cute. Walking on a collarstill needs some polishing, but she’s trying her best.If you’re looking for a funny, loving, people obsessed dog who will ride shotgun and steal yourheart she’s your girl!

~THIS DOG IS **NOT** IN THE CARE OF THE ALTERNATIVE HUMANE SOCIETY. THIS IS A COURTESY POST. PLEASE REACH OUT TO EMMET’S CURRENT OWNER AT carrie1623@comcast.net FOR MORE INFO ON HIM~~ Looking for a loyal companion who’s equal parts snuggly and playful? Meet love-bug Emmett. Emmett is believed to be a Black Labrador Retriever/American Pitbull Terrier mix between 2-4 years old, weighing about 50 pounds. He’s in great health and up-to-date on his vaccines, microchipped, and neutered.   Emmett is a wonderful dog who will snuggle with you all day and all night if given the chance. He definitely thinks he’s a lapdog and wants to be as close to you as he can be. He’s energetic and loves to play, chomping at the water coming out of the hose in the warmer weather and gnashing on his toys, stuffed and tuff, with equal delight when the weather is gray and drizzly. He loves to smell everything when he’s out on walks and will pull you along to get to his next sweet-smelling destination. Emmett is very food motivated and eager to please, making him responsive to training He knows sit and touch and is very comfortable in a crate. We’re working on wait for his dinner and taking treats softly. He’d benefit from continued training with his leash manners, and in no time, we know he’ll be the best trail-walking and hiking companion. Emmett has demonstrated that he’s not a good companion for cats, small dogs, or livestock - he has a natural prey drive. He does get along with dogs his size or bigger, but all the same, he’d truly prefer to be your one and only, getting spoiled with every ounce of love and attention just for himself! Emmett was found as a stray and has been with us for almost a year. We would love to keep this boy in our family, but we cannot. We have kitties in our home and also have been unable to give Emmett the time and training that he needs as we’ve been caring for a terminally ill family member. This handsome guy will thrive in a loving environment where he can bond closely with his humans. If you’re looking for a sweet, affectionate, and fun-loving companion to share your days with, Emmett might just be the one. ##2436226##

Mochi is magic in a bottle! He’s a happy go lucky pup with a heart of gold, and he’s ready for his forever home. We believe that Mochi is a Cur, Pittie mix, but he is a rescue so these are just our best guesses! Mochi has a stunning dark brindle coat. It’s giving expensive, sleek, and stylish! Make way for Mr. Mochi man! Sweet Mochi is estimated to be around 2 years old, and he currently weighs in at a lap-sized 66 pounds. You will enjoy all of those lbs of love when he climbs into your lap for his big bear hug. And you won’t even remember that he’s not a lap dog! The first thing you’ll notice about Mochi is how incredibly people-oriented he is. He greets each and every new face with a wagging tail and a big smile. Kids are no exception for Mochi- he has lived in foster home with a young child with no issue. If your kids need a playmate, Mochi could be a perfect match! Fall in love with Mochi right here! https://youtu.be/_qy84WUR11g?si=J9O7kt13di8X_SAR Our volunteer took him for a day out and let us know how great he was out in public! Mochi is such a good boy! He did perfectly in the car, sitting like a gentleman, waiting for you to turn around at the red lights to give him a nod and a “good boy Mochi!” Mochi sometimes gets a little excited on a leash, so he would be best with someone who can handle his wiggle butts and ready to go attitude! He LOVES everyone!! We know we already told you how amazing Mochi is in the car, but we really mean it! This quality really does just aid in making him a perfect adventure buddy. He enjoys his car rides in the back seat, watching the world go by while you drive. Mochi loves to accompany his foster family on shopping trips and Starbucks runs, and while he’s out- he’s absolutely spoiled by all who meet him. He’s just so handsome, and always so happy to meet new people- usually new humans will say something like “wow, what a beautiful coat!” followed shortly by “Wow! Thank you for the kisses, Mochi!” Mochi has learned that the compliments come freely and the treats come easy for a good boy like him. If your definition of “adventure” stretches past a trip to Target, fret not- Mochi is a total outdoorsman. This guy doesn’t mind puddles, ice, snow or steep climbs. The most treacherous hike couldn’t faze him. Mochi is both confident and trusting on leash, which makes him a perfect hiking companion. He has the stamina to join you for long excursions, and the car riding skills to join you in far away lands. He’s people-oriented enough to check in from time to time, making adventuring that much safer and more enjoyable. He’s a perfect camping/hiking/adventuring companion, through and through! When you get to that scenic overlook, Mochi will “sit” on command for that perfect picture, in exchange for a treat, of course! Speaking of treats, Mochi is super food motivated! This makes further training with him enjoyable and rewarding for both of you. He already sits on command for treats and he takes them gently. He also knows how to stay, he is such a good listener! His favorite treat is beef jerky, and yes, he did ask us to include this factoid in his bio! It is very important and relevant information for his future family to know. Mochi’s foster family does include two small dogs with a medium to low energy level. Mochi is firmly in the medium energy category, with legs that could run all day and a heart that could snuggle all night. Mochi loves to play with other dogs, and does play with his foster siblings, but is respectful when the other dogs are done playing, or don’t want to play. His lower energy friends keep him balanced, and for that reason we believe he would do best in a home with medium to low energy female dogs like his foster siblings. Mochi is so people-oriented that he could also thrive as a solo dog, soaking up all of your attention for himself. Mochi is a total toy lover too. He likes to carry his toys around in his mouth, and he has been reported to do so for up to a half hour at a time. It’s impossibly adorable. He also likes to pull his toys out of his toy box, one by one, doing a little “inventory” before deciding which is best. He’s also great at catching his toys in his mouth. He’s such a talented and happy boy! I was one of the lucky people able to play tug-of-war with Mochi, and of course he won. With a boy this cute you don’t even care when you lose a great battle, because you’ve already won just by being with him!!! Precious Mochi is so loving and happy, he will surely brighten any home. We would be remiss to not mention that Mochi is a total staff favorite! He’s described as “funny and cute,” by our behavior team lead, as “so happy” by one of our K9 Coaches, and as “an incredibly special boy,” by one of our adoption coordinators. Mochi is truly such a bright and special soul, and he has so many fans and friends already, but he’s ready for his forever home. With a smile always on his face, Mochi is ready to fill your home with love and happiness. Mochi could live with other dogs, but we don’t recommend him for a home with kitties. We believe he would be happiest in a home with a yard, but considering his personality and social skills, we believe he could do well in an apartment too. Mochi could make a great family dog, we think he would be best in a home with kids 10+ Mochi is ready for the rest of his life to begin- don’t make him wait any longer, apply to adopt this sweet boy today!

Our mission is to reduce the homeless pet population through community outreach, free spay and neuter services, and saving all breeds of dogs and cats from the streets or animal shelters that oftentimes have no other option but to euthanize animals for space.

We know our dogs and we work hard to prepare them socially for adoption. We are a network of dedicated people who are heavily invested in seeing our animals thrive. From the moment they are accepted into our program, our Intake, Behavior & Medical teams prepare them for adoption by properly vetting, behaviorally assessing, and providing customized plans depending on the dog’s needs. We seek to adopt to families who understand that these are rescue dogs and will require continued training efforts, but will be well on their way to being the best dogs that they can be! It doesn’t stop there! Our adopters also receive these special perks: • 30 day trial of pet insurance with Trupanion (must register within 24 hours of first vet appt.) • A free private online dog training session with GoodPup plus low pricing for future sessions (approx $25 weekly for an 8 week course of one session per week) • One free bonus toy in every BarkBox when signing up for their Super Chewer subscription plan • 70% off of your first order of Fetch, a PNW based, organic fresh dog food loaf meal subscription plan • Coupons for a fun visit to Petco • Access to our exclusive FB Adopters page, where you can network for play dates, resources, and connect with other adopters that share their passion for their adopted pup!

Meet Shana Grace (Gracie)! Shana Grace is an absolute doll—she has the most beautiful black and brown brindle coat, the softest puppy-dog eyes, and the cutest floppy ears that bounce when she walks! At around 4 years old, she’s ready to bring calm, love, and snuggles into her forever home. Gracie is believed to be a Lab / Plott Hound mix—but since she’s a rescue, we can’t make any promises. What we can promise is that she’s 100% adorable and 110% lovebug. See her sweet smile in her video! https://youtu.be/dlxCw5G0JmQ?feature=shared Gracie is a total couch potato princess. Her perfect day is a slow stroll in the yard, a cozy nap in a sunny spot, and then curling up right beside you for cuddles. She’s house-trained, walks nicely on a leash, and enjoys peaceful car rides where she can watch the world go by. She’s affectionate without being demanding, and she will happily give kisses to her foster sister—or to anyone she trusts. Gracie is a gentle, calm soul. She can be a little shy when meeting new dogs, but once she feels comfortable, she’s happy to relax nearby or slowly join in play on her terms. She has been around children and teenagers, and with her mellow temperament, she would likely be amazing with kids. She’s patient, gentle, and sweet, making her a perfect companion for a family who wants a calm, loving pup by their side. When it comes to cats, Gracie’s cat test was a little inconclusive because she was distracted and curious about everything else going on in the room. She did not show any signs of aggression, but until we can do a more thorough test, we just don’t know for sure. If you think Gracie might be the one for your family, reach out to us, and we can explore her cat compatibility further—she may surprise you! Gracie isn’t much into toys yet, but she’s highly treat-motivated, which makes her a wonderful learner. She’s likely to pick up new tricks quickly, especially with a patient and loving family. With her calm, low-energy personality, she’d thrive in either an apartment or a home with a yard where she can sunbathe, relax, and enjoy life at her own pace. Shana Grace truly has an “old soul” charm—she’s sweet, gentle, and endlessly loving. If you’re looking for a loyal, calm, and affectionate companion who will shower you with love, quietly join you in every part of your day, and melt your heart with her floppy-eared sweetness, Gracie is your girl. She’s ready to find her forever home and be the loving best friend you’ve been waiting for. Ready to welcome a new furry friend into your life?

Meet Sweet Ponderosa (aka Pondsy)! If pure sunshine, a dash of goofiness, and a sprinkle of “goodest boy energy” had a puppy, it would be Pondsy. This handsome, almost-2-year-old Shepherd/Lab mix weighs around 50 pounds, and every single one of them is packed with love, wiggles, and joy. He’s got a soft, shiny black coat that glows in the sun and big warm brown eyes that could melt anyone on the spot. When he sees his people, get ready—his signature Pondsy Wiggle kicks in, his tail goes into overdrive, and he plops right over for belly rubs like it’s his job. Pondsy is the kind of dog who makes every day feel like an adventure. Whether he’s going on a hike, trotting beside you on a walk, or curling up in the car for a nap, he’s just happy to be included. He’s still a young pup at heart—curious, silly, and always ready for fun. He’d make an amazing hiking buddy, but he’s also a total snuggle bug who loves to chill once the adventures are over. Pretty please go watch his video here! He is seriously the kind of boy that you have to watch in action! It is impossible not to fall in love! https://youtu.be/zXPt4DbuUDs?si=NTBL7xzhBVa-t-_- This boy adores other dogs and lights up when he gets to play with them. He’d do amazing in a home with a friendly, medium-energy female dog who loves to romp and wrestle, but he’d also be perfectly happy soaking up all the attention as your one and only. Either way, you’ll never have a dull moment with this sweet, goofy boy around. Pondsy has been such a trooper—he had leg surgery and worked hard in physical therapy, and he’s come out the other side stronger and happier than ever! His back leg has a bit of character to it now (it adds to his charm, really), but it doesn’t slow him down one bit. He loves to run, play, and zoom just like any other dog. He’s best suited for a home without cats (they’re way too interesting for his liking!) and without small kids, since they can be a bit overwhelming for him. Teenagers (13+) and adults, though? He adores them—he’ll bond deeply and follow you around like your biggest fan. Pondsy could even do apartment life (first floor!) if he gets enough exercise and mental stimulation, but a yard to run and play in would make him extra happy. Pondsy is truly the whole package—sweet, silly, loyal, and full of love. He’s the kind of dog who will make you laugh every single day, who greets you like you hung the moon, and who will make you feel like the luckiest person alive. If you’re looking for a wiggly, snuggly, adventure-loving best friend with a heart of gold, Ponderosa is your guy! 💛 Ready to welcome a new furry friend into your life?
