Shale

Adoption Status: Accepting Adoption Interest

Gender: Female
Breed: Labrador Retriever Mix
Age: Est DOB: 11/2025
Dog Friendly: Yes
Cat Friendly: Likely due to young age
Kid Friendly: Yes
House Trained: Doing great!

History: We recently welcomed an adorable litter of lab mix puppies from a rural overcrowded shelter. They are SO unique and sweet in their own individual ways. They are officially ready to start their journey in finding forever homes of their own soon!

A Note from the Foster: Meet this sweet little shadow with the soulful eyes and the cutest head tilt you’ve ever seen 💕

This darling girl is the perfect mix of cuddly companion and curious explorer. She has a gentle, affectionate nature and absolutely adores being close to her people. Whether she’s curling up beside you on the couch, resting her head in your lap, or following you from room to room, her favorite place is wherever you are.

She’s incredibly snuggly and thrives on connection. Belly rubs? Yes, please. Cozy blankets? Even better. She has a soft, calm sweetness about her, but don’t let that fool you—she’s also wonderfully inquisitive! She loves investigating new sounds, exploring the yard, and learning about the world around her. 

She’s making fantastic progress with her training. Her potty training is going very well, and she’s learning to communicate when she needs to go outside. She’s also working hard on leash training and is improving each day, happily trotting along and looking to her person for guidance. Crate training is going smoothly too—she settles nicely and is learning that her crate is a safe, cozy space of her own.

This sweet girl would thrive in a home ready to continue her training, shower her with love, and include her in everyday life. She’s the kind of dog who bonds deeply and will reward you with endless loyalty, warm snuggles, and a lifetime of joyful companionship.

If you’re looking for a loving, gentle, and devoted best friend with a curious spirit and a heart of gold, she’s waiting to meet you. 🐾💕

Adoption Fee: $760 + tax

Adoption Status: Is this dog available? Submitting an application is the best first step to learning if a dog is still available. There is a chance this dog could have a pending adoption when your application is submitted, however our team will offer approved applicants to be put on a waiting list for that dog. Additionally, we can make recommendations on other dogs that may be a match. Pending adoptions do not mean the adoption is finalized. Why did we implement this change? We implemented this update because, unfortunately, dogs were pending for applicants for several weeks and then the applicant would change their mind. This happens more often with puppies, as applications are submitted impulsivly more often for them. Our process is great because it takes a little time, so impulsive decisions fade. However it was unfortunate for the dogs, and the foster homes, as then the process needed to be re-started. By securing a wait-list we are able to move forward more quickly if a pending adoption falls through. This is a new process for us, so your feedback along the way is helpful! Thank you for supporting rescue and adoption!
