Ilya (Heated Rivalry litter)'s Story

Hi, I’m Ilya!<br/><br/>I was born around November 7th, 2025, and I’m a male Lab mix expected to grow to about 40-50 pounds of cuddly, playful charm. I’m still a puppy, so I’ve got that perfect mix of curiosity, sweetness, and just a little bit of mischief.<br/><br/>You might be wondering about my story. I had a bit of a tough start—I was found with my siblings alone in a warehouse. Thankfully, kind humans stepped in and showed us what love and safety feel like. Now I’m thriving in foster care and ready to find a forever family of my very own.<br/><br/>I’m an adorable, patient little guy who is very affectionate, very cuddly, and very playful. I love playing with my foster dog sibling, stretching out in the sunshine, and enjoying all the best puppy things—treats, toys, and mealtime (my personal favorite). I have moderate energy, which means I’m always up for fun but also happy to relax when the day winds down.<br/><br/>I’m crate trained (go me!), and I’m still working on potty training—I’m trying my best and improving with consistency. I don’t have much leash experience yet, but I’m young and eager to learn. I’m also extremely social, enjoy car rides, and sometimes like going out and about to explore the world.<br/><br/>My ideal home would have a yard, preferably another dog to be my playmate, and humans who can be around during the day to keep me company as I continue learning and growing. While I can be pretty independent for a puppy, I still love having my people close by.<br/><br/>A few things that make me special:<br/><br/>• Very cuddly & affectionate – snuggles are kind of my thing<br/>• Playful & social – I love dogs, people, and fun<br/>• Patient & sweet – I take new things in stride<br/><br/>If you’re looking for a loving, playful puppy with a heart full of affection and a sunny personality to match, I just might be your perfect match.<br/><br/>My adoption fee is $550, which includes my spay, microchip, and vaccinations.
