Hi! My name is Beckett #3, and I'm a 2-year-old, 55-pound Lab mix looking for my forever family! Right now, I'm living in a foster home, and my foster mom says I'm a pretty great dog. I'm housebroken, crate-trained, and have good manners around the house. I get along wonderfully with other dogs, love playing with my canine friends, and I even live peacefully with a baby! I'm an active boy who loves adventures. Whether it's exploring the yard, going for walks, or checking out new places, I'm always ready for fun. I walk nicely on a leash and would love a family that enjoys getting outside. A fenced yard would be ideal because I love to romp around, investigate all the interesting smells, and stretch my legs. When I'm ready to come back inside, I bump the door or give it a tap with my paw to let my foster family know! After a busy day, you'll usually find me curled up in my favorite comfy chair. I rest my head on the pillow and settle in for a nice napit's one of my favorite things to do. Now, I do have one very Lab-like quality: I LOVE food! My foster mom is helping me learn that kitchen counters are off-limits. What can I say? Snacks are pretty exciting! Before coming to rescue, I was found wandering the streets all alone. Thankfully, a kind person brought me to safety, and the shelter director knew I was a special boy. They reached out to Labs4Rescue, and now I'm getting my chance to find the loving forever home I've been waiting for. Could that home be yours?
