Labrador Retriever and Golden Retriever Dogs Available for Adoption in Washington, District Of Columbia

fluffy cloud ISO happily ever after! MILLS NEEDS A FOSTER OR FOREVER HOME!!!!
Name: Mills Best Guess for Breed: Lab and golden retriever mix
Best Guess for Age: 1 year 3 months as of May 2026 SEX: Male

Approximate Weight: 33 lbs

Gets Along With: Other dogs! We haven't seen him with cats or kids but we are happy to discuss integration techniques with any potential adopters!
Currently Living at: Puerto Rico shelter - needs a foster or forever home in the DC area to get up here!

Special adoption considerations: Dogs from Puerto Rico have a major transition to go through when they arrive and will need humans who are very committed to socialization. We think this pup would do best with either a resident dog or a family who can make sure they can go on walks regularly with other dogs, visit the dog park, or go to doggie daycare to learn the ropes.

Mills is Looking For: His forever home! He hails all the way from Puerto Rico - island life was great and balmy and all that but well, there's a big world out there and he wants to see it! So he's seeking his humans in the DC area and he has a wish list - sniffy walks, romps in parks, and all the adventures they can dream up, please! Making pup pals would be great too. (And getting pup cups too!). And going to dog school. (And getting brushed out regularly - his fluffy coat needs it!)

Most of all, though, he wants to know where he belongs, to be safe and loved. In exchange he promises love and loyalty for all his days. What do you say? Is Mills the one for your home and your heart?
What My Foster Says About Me: We will update this once he has spent time in foster care.
