Cali Labrador Retriever & Golden Retriever Mix Cincinnati, OH

Cali is a beautiful 2 1/2 year old Golden/lab mix who started in a local rescue. She was bounced around a bit before landing with a family, but after a couple months they decided to surrender her. She did not get along with their large Doberman. Small and medium size dogs were not an issue.

At 71 pounds, Cali is gentle and sweet but quite timid ... she needs to build confidence. She craves attention and our volunteers are of course happy to oblige. She has the prettiest black eyeliner markings around her eyes!

We hope to find Cali a home with a fenced yard and a patient family with prior training experience. We think she'd do well in a active home, maybe as a jogging partner.

• All of our animals are spayed/neutered and current on shots.
• We do not do same-day adoptions. You will be asked to return for at least one follow-up visit, then take the dog home for a trial period before officially adopting.
• You must be 21 years or older to adopt from STAF.
• We require a 4-foot-tall physical fence for homes with children under the age of 11. We also may require a physical fence for specific dogs on a case-by-case basis, depending on each dog’s behavior and exercise needs.
• Due in part to increasing coyote activity/incidents in the area and the difficulty of predicting how a dog will respond to invisible fence training, we can not adopt to homes with invisible fences.
• We do request vet and personal references.
• We can facilitate adoptions within a 75-mile radius of our Cincinnati-based shelter.
