Rose Marie Labrador Retriever vancouver, WA

Rose Marie is 6-month-old, 50-pound chocolate lab mix who embodies the ideal temperament for those seeking a laid-back companion; she is a happy girl who loves snuggling on the couch but also enjoys playing with other dogs, proving that she can strike a balance between calmness and fun. While Rose Marie appreciates affection if she approaches you, she isn't a fan of being approached. She will typically walk away when people walk toward her. With time and patience, she will grow more comfortable and develop a deeper bond. She is currently discovering the wonders of treats and peanut butter. Initially unfamiliar with these delights, she has quickly become treat motivated, even jumping with excitement to receive her tasty rewards. Although Rose Marie has exhibited some hesitation and barking towards her male caregiver, she has recently shown progress by joining him on the couch while maintaining a safe distance. This gradual acceptance demonstrates her willingness to overcome her fears and form meaningful connections. She would benefit from additional leash training but with guidance and positive reinforcement, she will learn to walk comfortably by your side. While Rose Marie is improving in her comfort level during car rides, she currently requires assistance getting into the vehicle. Patience and gradual exposure will help her overcome any anxieties and make car travel a breeze. Rose Maries shyness reflects her need for a patient and understanding owner who can provide a calm and nurturing environment, helping her build confidence over time. Rose Marie would do best in a home with other dogs.

Rose Marie, with her gentle spirit and a heart full of love, is eagerly awaiting the perfect family who will cherish and guide her on her journey. Are you ready to open your heart and home to this remarkable canine companion? Reach out today to make Rose Marie a cherished member of your family!
