German Shepherd Dog and Black Labrador Retriever Dogs Available for Adoption in Tampa, Florida

Meet Smoky 🐾✨

Smoky is around 2–3 years old and we think he’s a Shepherd/Lab mix (just our best guess based on those handsome looks). What we do know for sure? He’s 100% a good boy.

This sweet, smart guy has a bit of that fun, higher-energy vibe, but he’s also well-behaved and settles nicely. He’s the perfect mix of adventure buddy and loyal companion. Smoky LOVES his sniffy trail walks—give him a path and a good scent, and he’s in heaven. 🌿🐕

He does great with other dogs with proper introductions, and while he’s not aggressive with cats, he might try to chase if they run (he thinks it’s all just a game). He seems to be potty trained and sleeps soundly through the night—basically, he’s already got the good house manners down.

And can we talk about that FLOOFY tail?! He truly looks like a little squirrel exploring the woods, just living his best life. 🐿️💛

Smoky is incredibly smart, full of personality, and ready to find someone who will take him on all of life’s adventures.
