General Notes | Dumped on a rural country road during a storm where another driver spotted her and grabbed her, this girl deserves SO much better than her start to life. Stormy's life didn't start out with much sunshine. But despite her sad beginning, this resilient little lab pup is determined to leave the storm clouds behind and live a life filled with pure brightness! Every day, she gets braver and is discovering just how wonderful it is to curl up next to her humans for warm, cozy cuddle sessions. Stormy absolutely adores other dogs! Having a confident canine sibling in her forever home would be fantastic to help show her the ropes and boost her confidence. Give this girl a toy, and watch her blossom! She loves to play, chase, and explore, showing off that happy, goofy puppy spirit that a little rain could never wash away. Want to adopt this dog? Please do not email us. Please fill out the Adoption Application ASAP. Health Notes | Other Dogs | Cats | Children | Training | Leash | Too little to leash walk, but will learn with time! Our rescue follows "No Paws on the Ground" (NPOG) as a safety protocol for young puppies, primarily used by veterinarians, shelters, and rescues. It means that an unvaccinated or partially vaccinated puppy should never be allowed to put their feet on the ground in any public or communal area where other dogs or animals may have been. These babies love to play in secure yards, and be snuggled and held on family walks.Activity Level Personality | Story | Thank you! | Adoption Donations | Our adoption donations are $475 for dogs 8 weeks to 1 year, $425 for 1-6 years, $375 for dogs 7-10 years, and $250 for 11+ years of age.
