Black Labrador Retriever Dogs Available for Adoption in Grand Rapids, Michigan

Her name is just as sweet as her personality. Meet Oreo!

A family loving girl that meets you at the door with a toy in her mouth and tail a waggin’. After 10 long months in a shelter, Oreo went into a foster home, underwent heartworm treatment, and is now ready for her forever home.

Her foster family includes a 19mo toddler in which Oreo absolutely adores and a male boxer dog that keeps her company and shows her the ropes. She hasn’t met a human she doesn’t like and just yearns for love. She has many tricks up her sleeve to make you smile…from her tail thumping on the couch when she sees you, running around with a toy in her mouth, or her sneaky pawing for more belly rubs.

Oreo loves her stuffies and likes playing fetch.

She is also a fan of water and will be the first to jump in a kiddie pool. While she gets along well with her foster doggy brother, Oreo is very vocal when seeing other pups out on walks. This is something that is a work in progress with her foster mom. If her forever family includes a doggy sibling, she would be best with a laid back male who doesn’t take her yapping too seriously.

Oreo can be left alone while her foster parents are gone and she will not chew or scratch at things. She has waited far too long and truly deserves a loving home. If you are ready to meet your next best friend that’s ready for adventure or to cuddle on the couch, then Oreo is your girl!
