Labrador Retriever and Mixed Breed Dogs Available for Adoption in Riverdale, Iowa

Meet Charlie Brown… aka CB 🐾

This sweet boy has quite the story to tell. CB was a tiny bottle baby from just 2 days old, and thanks to an incredible vet tech and her family, he got the chance at life he so deserved. Now at approximately 11 weeks old and already 12 pounds, he’s thriving, and those big paws say he’s going to be a big boy someday!

CB is very much in his “learning how to dog” era (also known as his baby shark phase 🦈), full of curiosity, energy, and a little bit of chaos. He’s a smart little guy and already showing off by mastering an automatic sit for treats. Did
someone say foodie?!?

CB would do best in a home with a confident, gentle dog who can help show him the way. He’ll also need a family committed to training, structure, and positive reinforcement to help him grow into the amazing dog he’s meant to be. Continued training at Fur Better Fur Worse Dog Training, or a place with similar methods, will be key for his confidence and safe socialization.

CB is working on his manners, including learning that “sharing is caring” when it comes to food around other dogs. With consistency and guidance, he’s going to make great progress.

This little survivor is equal parts sweet, spunky, and full of potential. If you’re ready for puppy antics, big love, and helping shape a young pup into an incredible companion, CB is ready to be your guy.

CB is current on age appropriate vaccines and prevention, and is microchipped. He is also dewormed. His adoption fee is $350, and will be adopted on a neuter contract to give his growth plates time to fully develop. To meet Charlie Brown, please submit an application at www.k9kindnessrescue.org/adopt. As a reminder, we are not a shelter location and require a scheduled meet and greet.

Adopters must live within 175 miles of the Quad Cities. All pets currently in the home must be routinely kept up to date on shots, prevention and fixed to be approved for adoption.

The Labrador Retriever is a popular and versatile dog breed known for its friendly demeanor and high intelligence. These dogs are often used as guide dogs for the visually impaired, search and rescue dogs, and excellent family pets. Labradors are known for their great sense of smell, strong build, and love of water, making them exceptional hunters and swimmers. With their loyal and loving nature, Labradors have rightfully earned their reputation as one of the most beloved dog breeds in the world.

The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.
