Chief is a pure-bred chocolate lab, born on St. Patrick's Day (4 months old), and he weighs 34 lbs. He uses the dog door for potty time, he knows “sit” and “stay” and he is currently learning “off” and “down” commands. He wants to please his humans! He does well riding in the car, is good at the vet’s office, and loves a great game of fetch! He gets along great with the resident labs, running and playing in the yard. He loves water, so a pool for him to swim in will be a bonus. Chief retrieves pool toys together with his lab sister, swimming beside her – it is the cutest thing to watch!
Chief has just started to "talk back" when corrected, and it's really hard not to laugh. He is curious about everything and wants to taste it all like most puppies do, including mouthing his humans!
Chief would do great with an active human family and/or another dog that wants a playmate. He’s very affectionate and playful and will be the perfect addition to a loving family.
Chief is available through our Pending Adoption Welfare Status (PAWS) program which places puppies in their forever homes to start the bonding process prior to completing the adoption. Adopters MUST be approved by SOLR for our PAWS program to adopt a PAWS puppy. If approved, adopters must abide by the PAWS program agreement including spay/neuter and vaccine requirements which are all paid for by SOLR. If Chief sounds like a good fit for you, contact his foster today!
