Birdie Labrador Retriever Mix Murphysboro, IL

Hi. I am Birdie. Some folks say I'm shy. I think I'm expected to act like other Labs, that's part of my genes. But, right now I don't. Don't get me wrong, I would like to be like my sister Bobbie, you know, bouncy, perky, always up for life's hustle and bustle. I'm more reserved.
So, I have been thinking, a little canine self-diagnosis if you will. I was born mid-October 2021; then taken to a shelter, and Jan 2022 we cam to St. Francis. In our first 3 months, my sister and I were living in our third shelter. In February 2022 Bobbie was adopted. Another change and now I am by myself. As of this writing I am a year old and feel like I was never given a chance to be a puppy, to form an attachment with a loving human in a forever home.
Don't think I am not appreciative of the people at St Francis CARE. I am glad to have a place that is safe. I am treated well and I really like playing with the other dogs, But, I think I would blossom if I lived in a trusting stable home where I was appreciated for me.
So maybe I am a little shy, a little reserved, but, I bet that would change if I was with my own hooman.Please visit: Https://www.stfrancis-care.org/adopt for adoption information including the adoption application
