Kiara

Kiara: 8 year-old spayed female yellow Lab, 57 lbs<br/><br/>Background: <br/>Kiara was recently adopted from GGLRR. Her original family had elderly parents at home who needed constant care, in addition to having young kids. They no longer had time to spend with Kiara and get her out for walks, and wanted to see her go to a family who had time to give her the love and attention she truly deserves. Kiara is enjoying some wonderful hikes and lots of love with her new family, but they are finding that life in a condo is just not suiting Kiara. She seems stressed in the condo and they've noticed how she is so much more relaxed and happy when they visit a friend's house where she has the ability to go in/out on her own and just hang out and chill in the yard when she wants. That seems to be Kiara's happy place. Condo neighbors have also not been thrilled about having a big dog (vs a small dog) around. Kiara's new owner has sadly come to the realization that as much as they love Kiara, their current living situation is not the best for her, and they are returning Kiara to GGLRR so we can find her a new home where she can truly thrive. <br/><br/>Kiara’s original owner says:<br/>Kiara is a wonderful 8-year-old Labrador retriever. She’s always ready to play and has a friendly and playful nature, making her the perfect companion for anyone who loves the outdoors. Kiara loves the outdoors and enjoys going on walks and exploring new places. She is also very gentle, and used to being around kids and the elderly, making her an excellent family dog.<br/><br/>Kiara's Rescue Rep says: <br/>Kiara is a very nice dog. Her favorite activity is sniffing new places and smells, so she would do great with a family that likes to go on hikes and outdoor adventures. She also enjoys playing fetch with her favorite squeaky ball. She can pull a little when she is excited to go out at the start of a walk, but quickly settles into the rhythm of the walk. She can sometimes get growly when passing other dogs on-leash, but does well with dogs off-leash. She interacted politely with dogs of various sizes off-leash in a dog park when I met her. We want to see Kiara go to a home with easy access to a fenced yard where she can chill, hang out, and play.<br/><br/>Medical Information: <br/>Kiara is spayed, up to date on vaccinations, microchipped and on preventatives. She is currently taking a thyroid medication (levothyroxine) for hypothyroidism. Her new vet has noticed a sialocele (swollen salivary gland) which may need surgical removal. <br/><br/><br/>Videos:<br/>Kiara playing in the yard:<br/>https://youtube.com/shorts/wpDUMi0g1mI<br/><br/>Kiara is located in: Walnut Creek<br/><br/>If you are interested in Kiara, please contact Rescue Rep Katy at katy4gglrr@gmail.com <br/><br/>In your email, please tell me about yourself and why you would be a good fit for Kiara.
