Nash Labrador Retriever Mix Columbia, MD

MEET NASH! (Descriptor: Teenager)
This affectionate ~3 year old mixed breed "teenager" is currently enrolled in a month long train-and-board program with Ridgeside K9 Central MD! He weighed in at an athletic 60 lbs before shipping out (he will likely shed some pounds while in training due to the high level of activity involved.) Nash came to us from an underserved shelter in the south and had to have a toe on his hind foot removed, but it doesn't slow him down in the least! Nash can leap, spin, chase toys and zoomy like the ebullient pup he is. He shows his moves off while playing outside, which is his most favorite thing to do in the whole wide world. Rolling in the grass and soaking up the rays are his go-to's.
At Ridgeside Nash will learn obedience that works anywhere, from a busy park to grandma's house. The training is exceptional and Nash and his adopter will be able to go anywhere and do anything together. Nash is housebroken and crate trained. He has played well with both female and male dogs, but like a lot of "teenaged boys" he's perfectly good with being left alone. Nash has not been cat tested, but we think he will leave them alone with a firm 'leave it.'
Nash loves to play with sturdy toys and squeaky balls. He will drop his toy on command. He isn't thrilled when humans touch his feet (who would after having to have a toe surgically removed?) so children 10 years old and up would be best.
Nash's adoption donation fee is $375, which includes spay/neuter, routine vetting and a microchip. You can apply for Nash by filling out our online application, which is found on our website www.tarashouse.org. Please email us at info@tarashouse.net with any questions.
