Chris Labrador Retriever & Shepherd Mix Columbus, OH

Meet Chris a 4-month-old black lab mix who’s the perfect blend of playful energy and sweet affection! Chris’s journey began when he and his 7 siblings were found as strays at just 7 weeks old, alongside their brave mama who had dug a hole in the side of a hill to keep her pups safe.

Now thriving in his foster home, Chris is a happy, excited, and smart little pup who absolutely adores people. He loves making new friends, both human and canine, and gets along wonderfully with other dogs. Whether he's playing outside or snuggling up for some quiet time, Chris is always eager to share his love and enthusiasm with those around him.

If you’re looking for a loyal companion with a heart as big as his personality, Chris is ready to bring joy to your home!
