Perhaps Cole is the one for you.<br/><br/>🖤 Meet Cole: The "Diamond in the Rough" <br/>Status: Seeking a Stability Specialist<br/><br/>Cole is a 2.5-year-old Black Lab mix who is tired of life’s transitions. He’s spent some time moving from place to place, and all he really wants is a "safe haven" where the furniture stays the same and the love is constant.<br/><br/>⚡️ Don’t Let the "Kennel Jitters" Fool You!<br/>If you walk past Cole’s kennel, you’ll likely see him jumping and doing his best "pogo stick" impression. Don’t be intimidated—that’s just his way of saying, "Please, let’s go for a walk!" As soon as he clips onto a leash and steps outside, that frantic energy melts away. He’s just a playful, active boy who is understandably eager to get out and explore the world with a friend.<br/><br/>Why Cole is a Hidden Gem:<br/>The "Slow-Burn" Best Friend: Like many sensitive souls, Cole is a little cautious with new faces. But once you earn his trust? You’ve got a shadow for life. His capacity for affection is huge, and he’ll reward your patience with endless tail wags and leans.<br/><br/>Pro-Social: Cole gets along well with other dogs! He prefers a "slow and steady" introduction so he can feel secure, but once he’s comfortable, he’s a fantastic playmate.<br/><br/>Resilient & Ready: Despite a string of transitions, Cole hasn’t lost his spirit. He’s looking for a quiet, stable home where he can finally stop looking over his shoulder and start being the star of the family.<br/><br/>The Perfect Adventure Partner: As a young Lab mix, he’s got the perfect energy level for hiking, fetch in the yard, or long evening strolls.<br/><br/>📋 Cole’s Stats:<br/>Age: 2.5 years (Prime time!)<br/><br/>Personality: High-energy at first, but deeply affectionate and loyal once settled.<br/><br/>Health: Neutered, heartworm negative, and fully up to date on all vaccinations.<br/><br/>Cole is a good boy who has just had a run of bad luck. He needs someone who can look past the kennel barking and jumping to see the loving, resilient soul underneath.<br/><br/>💌 Ready to be Cole’s "Forever Person"? Please send an email to h4mpounddogs@gmail.com<br/>We'd love to tell you more about him.<br/><br/>*Our ADOPTION fee is $300<br/>**If necessary, our TRANSPORT fee, outside of TEXAS is $300<br/><br/>We only use trusted, reputable transport to deliver our dogs to their new families.
