WOOFS! HAPPY FRIDAY!! My friend, "Lab Lady," brought by a beautiful young Yellow Labrador Retriever named Dewey who is looking for his "Forever Home!" with humans to love who will love him too. He must go home with another dog and a female-only home.

Dewey is looking for his "Forever Home!" in a rural or suburban single-family home with a physical fence required. He will have a Training Addendum attached to his adoption. 

Barkingly, Dewey is a very happy and pawlayful puppy. He used to love outside with twelve other Labradors so he was intentionally pawlaced in a foster home with a pack of dogs! WOOFS! This will provide him time to adjust to indoor living and learning to trust humans. He is growing more confident by the week. 

Dewey is a petite fella who has become quite the lap dog. He likes belly rubs, ear rubs, and/or back scratches. When his Foster Mom scoops him up for some attention, he snuggles in and pawlaces his head on her chest.

Woofinglys, Dewey's pawlayful pawsonality is shows when he pawlays with all the foster dogs. He likes to pawlot pupply attacks, sneaks up on three at a time, though he really loves the younger, energetic siblings! They pawlay chase, carry sticks together, roll around on the ground or pawlay tug-of-war for hours on end! Barks! He relies on the resident dogs as role models and follows their lead. An energetic canine in the home would be great for him.

Paws, once he burns off some energy, Dewey is a low-key pup. At night, he tries to stay awake with the other dogs but he often falls asleep with his head up. Overall, he is a fairly mellow puppy. He goes with the flow, likes naps after a hard pawlay, and prefers an early bedtime.

He is still cautious around most men, especially those he didn't see coming. Barkingly, he is making great strides in approaching male visitors to the yard or house after watching them for a minute or two. He prefers an all-female home. 

Woofs, he has great house manners and does not need crated when left home alone! He is a good alert pup letting you know when someone's at the door. 

Dewey created a video to help with his adoption: Dewey Plays Ball.

Dewey is approved for mini-humans ages 10 and older as there is no history of him ever living with mini-humans. He has an unknown history with cats too. Bark, he is good with other dogs.
