Wasabi Labrador Retriever Mix New Orleans, LA

Hello, I'm Wasabi! I'm young and full of life. I'm sweet like sugar and brave like a knight. I love cuddles, they make me feel safe and warm. I'm smart too, I can learn tricks fast. Loyalty is my middle name, I'll be by your side, always. I'm gentle, even with the smallest creatures. (I am a bit dog-selective with male dogs my size and larger.) I need nice and slow meetings with dogs and I do better with females. I'm friendly to everyone I meet. Oh, and I absolutely adore children! Their laughter makes my tail wag uncontrollably. Why should you adopt me? Because I promise to fill your life with joy, loyalty, and endless cuddles. I'll be your best friend, your confidante, your family. Let's make beautiful memories together.

Wasabi is guessed to be around 1 yr old and is currently 50lbs. He is super laid back and is good at taking cues from other dogs. He would be great in a home with kids, dogs and cats. He’s kennel and potty trained. He and his sister were rescued from a high kill shelter, but now they spend their days playing with toys, lounging on the sofa and playing in their baby pool. 


Please note: as with most rescue dogs, we have no way to guarantee this dog's breed or size potential.

PLEASE READ BELOW:

If you are interested in meeting and/or adopting, the first step is to please visit our website to complete an application and read all of our FAQs: https://www.takepawsrescue.org/adopt

**Please do not use the "Introduce Yourself" feature. The information needed to determine if you might be a match for one of our animals can only be found on our application. An inquiry, questions or introduction through Petfinder is NOT an application. All known details about our animals are posted on their profile and updated daily. Other info would be discussed in detail with the foster during the application review process. Due to the number of introductions/questions received (hundreds daily) we ask you submit an application on our website (that application can be used for any dog with Take Paws Rescue).

The adoption fee for puppies covers initial deworming, puppy vaccinations, microchip, and spay/neuter at the rescue's approved vet at 6 months of age. Please see our website for more information.

2022 Adoption Fee Scale for non-benefactor animals:
Puppies under 12 months - $350
Dogs over 12 months - $250

For additional information, including the adoption process and our adoption fee scale for all our adoptable pets, see our FAQs page: https://www.takepawsrescue.org/faq

*Take Paws Rescue saves dogs from high-kill shelters in Southeast Louisiana, owner surrenders, and discarded dogs with uncertain futures. All of our puppies live in foster homes where they are socialized, and well cared for. An application will be required to make sure it’s the perfect match!

**Any breed labels used by Take Paws Rescue, its employees/volunteers, or on vet records provided cannot be guaranteed. Breed labels are given based on information obtained during intake and/or best guesses based on appearance and/or temperament of the dogs and Take Paws Rescue gives no assurance to the accuracy of these labels. Labels are necessary for postings to many animal networking sites, such as Pet Finder, and are no way a guarantee. Additionally, exact age and potential size cannot be guaranteed.
