Becket Mixed Breed Cedar Rapids, IA

Becket is a 5-month-old, 25lb, mixed breed puppy (Mom looked like a black Lab mix--dad unknown) with the perfect balance of playful energy and laid-back charm. She’s the kind of pup who’ll joyfully romp around the yard, then happily curl up on the couch with a chew toy while you relax and watch TV. She’s affectionate, easygoing, and always ready to match your vibe—whether it's playtime or downtime.

Becket gets along wonderfully with dogs, cats, and kids. She’s kennel trained (used to kenneling all night and for 8hr work days), 90% house trained, and already muzzle trained—not because she’s aggressive (she’s a total sweetheart!), but because she’s still learning that sticks and rocks aren’t snacks! She wears the muzzle outside only--when she isnt supervised-- so that she can explore the yard without upsetting her tummy. Like many puppies, she’s curious and occasionally too enthusiastic about tasting the world around her. The good news? She’s food-motivated and eager to please, which makes her very trainable with a little supervision and consistency.

She walks beautifully on leash, even in busy areas, and doesnt bark when passing bikes, wagons, other dogs, etc.

With her sweet personality, calm nature, and goofy charm, Becket is incredibly adoptable—and just needs a loving home that will help her continue learning what’s safe to chew. (This is a Lab puppy characteristic and they do eventually grow up!). In return, you’ll get a loyal companion who’s as content chasing a ball as she is snoozing by your side.

If you’re looking for a puppy who’s as snuggly as she is fun, Becket might just be your perfect match. Apply to meet her—you won’t regret it!

Apply at adoptapal.org/adopt to meet her. Her adoption fee is $425.
