Bentley - Labrador Retriever and Mixed Breed Dog for Adoption in Crown Point, Indiana

This puppy is one of 32 we rescued from Louisiana, where animal welfare protections are almost nonexistent. Puppies there are often born into neglect — chainedup mother dogs, dirt yards, no food, no vet care, and no one looking out for them. Many are dumped, abandoned, or left outside in dangerous conditions.

I'm a small Lab mix, about 30 lbs, and I won't get much bigger. I'm a playful boy who loves my toys and will toss and catch them all day. I'm friendly with people and do well with other dogs when introduced slowly. I'm an easy size, fun, and ready for a home that enjoys an active, happy dog.

My life was rough before rescue. I was found dumped on the street in a small cage. I tried to escape, and the wire rubbed my back, leaving a painful sore. It has healed, and my hair is growing back in places, though I may always have a scar.

Please submit an application on our website. www.indianasaveadog.com. Once approved, you may schedule a meetandgreet/adoption appointment to meet any of our available puppies.

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.
