Labrador Retriever and Boxer Dogs Available for Adoption in Herndon, Virginia

Meet Astro

He's got the looks of a rebel and the heart of a golden retriever — and Astro wouldn't have it any other way. This handsome, energetic mixed breed boy is turning heads everywhere he goes, and honestly, one look at that striking black coat with the distinctive gray and white stripe running up his head and across his chest and you'll understand why. He looks like he was designed to be noticed — and his personality makes sure of it.

Astro is a medium sized, short haired, neutered male with more than a little terrier spirit running through his veins — and if you know terriers, you know exactly what that means. This boy is alive in every sense of the word. Energetic, curious, enthusiastic, and always — always — ready for whatever comes next. He approaches life with the kind of full-throttle joy that is equal parts exhausting and completely infectious. You cannot be in a bad mood around Astro. It simply isn't allowed.

When it comes to the social side of life, Astro is doing beautifully. He is good with people — warm, friendly, and genuinely happy to meet whoever walks through the door. He plays wonderfully with other dogs and has a natural, easy energy that makes him a great canine companion.

Cats are — well, cats are a work in progress.

Astro loves cats.
Housetrained and crate trained.
