Meet Piper - VIDEO

Piper   Female, Labrador retriever mix, Age 2.5 years, weight 41 pounds   Laughter and fun are Piper's specialties. She might start off shy, but give her some time, and she blossoms into an affectionate, tail-wagging friend. She's a Labrador Retriever mix through and through, showing all the classic traits – playful, loyal, and full of love. Must haves are lots of toys and fun! Her tail is nearly always wagging. Actually, her whole butt is usually wagging. And she usually has a goofy smile on her face thanks to her short snout and the cutest tiny underbite.   She’s a vibrant, young pup brimming with curiosity and an insatiable love for life. Piper’s always excited to make new dog and cat friends, with a little help from proper introductions. A buddy and a backyard would be perfect for Piper to channel her zest for life.  Her journey from a stray to a cherished pet has brought out her delayed puppyhood.    Piper has adapted beautifully to home life, relishing her snuggle sessions on the couch and bed after a day full of play. She's getting the hang of crate and house training. A slightly older dog buddy would be great for her, to continue her learning and to share in her playful escapades.   Adventure is Piper's middle name – she's the perfect companion for hikes and fun adventures. She "pawmises" to be a source of laughter and joy in your life. Piper can't wait to meet you!!   Good with all People and Kids Good with some dogs - plays well with younger & smaller dogs at her foster home Good with Cats Good in a kennel   Transport available to Hagerstown, MD; Milford, PA; Plantsville, CT and Warwick, RI.   * The adoption fee of $325 includes age-appropriate vaccines, initial de-worming, spay/neuter surgery, microchip and transport fee.   * The application is the first step in all inquiries and adoptions     Canine Compassion Fund - Online Adoption Application www.caninecompassionfund.org/Forms/OnlineAdoptionApplication   * Additional information is available on our site caninecompassionfund.org
