Piper #22 Chocolate Labrador Retriever Killingworth, CT

Hi! My name is Piper #22 and my foster mom will tell you that I am pawsitively perfect! I am the quintessential lab at 1 year old. I weigh about 55-60 bs. I'm housebroken and crate-trained. I have oodles of personality and my foster mom describes me as zesty, agile, energetic and sweet. I am a silly girl - I sometimes greet people with my food or water bowl in my mouth! My foster mom says I am enthusiastic and love to play outside with my people and dog friends. I know sit and will sit for a treat. With some training, I will make a great walking partner. I am still learning to walk on the leash, but I am making progress. When I get excited, I do jump, and my foster mom is working with me, because I just get so excited when I see people. Because I am a bit jumpy, I would prefer a home with older children, because I would not want to accidentally hurt a small child. I have met cats, and I just avoid them. I'd be okay in a home with cats and dogs. I just want to please, so my foster mom says that training will be easy. I definitely need a home with a fenced yard, as I am energetic and love to run and play. Please reach and ask all about me! I'm ready to have fun with my forever home and go on tons of adventures.
