Nyx

Nyx is a gorgeous 1 year and 3 month old black Lab mix with a heart of pure gold and a spirit that simply refuses to be broken. While the earliest chapters of her life were incredibly tough and scary, this resilient girl has officially closed that book. Thanks to the power of love and a safe foster home, Nyx has proven to be a true survivor. Her heart is completely open, and she is entirely focused on the bright, beautiful future ahead of her. Nyx currently weighs 34 pounds and is expected to remain a medium size dog.Nyx runs on two speeds, the Zoomie Express, hectic puppy energy and Complete Zen, elite snuggler, soaking up all the affection she can get. Nyx has previously thrived in a busy, lively environment surrounded by kids, other dogs, and even farm goats! She gets along with everyone and absolutely loves being part of a pack. Nyx has not had the opportunity to meet any cats, so it is unknown how she will be with them.Nyx is already crate trained, viewing her crate as a cozy, safe haven. She is almost fully house trained and is working hard on her leash manners every single day. Because she did not always have someone to guide her in the past, she is still learning how to navigate the world on walks, but she is incredibly smart and eager to please. The ideal match for Nyx is a patient, active family who can match her fun puppy energy while providing the secure structure she thrives on. A home with another playful dog to wrestle with would be a fantastic outlet for her, but she would also excel as a solo spotlight queen if her humans have plenty of time to dedicate to her. Because of her rough start in life, Nyx will blossom best with a family that uses gentle, positive reinforcement to build her confidence and guide her big, goofy enthusiasm.If you are looking for a loyal, resilient, and utterly sweet companion to fill your days with laughter and your evenings with deep cuddles, Nyx is ready to start her best chapter yet with you! * When considering adoption, keep in mind that dogs thrive on structure and routine.
