Labrador Retriever Dogs Available for Adoption in Fargo, North Dakota

Brick, aka Bricky boy, is a 7-year-old gentleman who has truly mastered the art of living the good life. He's a shorter, stocky Lab weighing in around 110 lbs (currently on a health journey that includes lots of walks and a reasonable diet so he can look good for summer-he's very brave about it).

Brick has diabetes insipidus, requiring him to take a daily pill. This is absolutely not a problem for Brick, as long as said pill is hidden under a piece of food...or better yet, wrapped lovingly in turkey or tucked inside a pill pocket. He has standards. As long as he gets his pill, his symptoms are managed and are of no concern

This sweet old man is delightfully low-key. Most of his day is spent sleeping, lounging, looking out the window, or slowly wandering between his two favorite dog beds like a retired king inspecting his castle. Brick is not a fan of kennels and made that very clear upon arrival, but since he's fully potty trained, house trained, and not destructive, he now enjoys free rein of the upstairs-and he's been thriving ever since.

Brick is a world-class snuggler. He will happily lay on top of you if permitted, and while he sleeps through the night on his dog bed, he's more than willing to share a human bed if you help him up. Couch privileges are not a concern-whether due to laziness or being pleasantly rotund, Brick cannot get up there on his own.

While he is definitely a laid-back guy, Brick does enjoy his walks. He plays "follow the leader" and walks directly behind you, never pulling on the leash. He's gentle enough that a kid could walk him with ease.

One of Brick's most charming quirks? When he gets excited or receives pets, he does a little hop with his front legs And gives you a big smile-an unexpectedly adorable move for a dog his size.

Brick isn't particularly interested in toys or bones, but he is interested in people, other dogs, and kids. He's easygoing, friendly, and wonderfully low-maintenance-just a sweet, mellow companion looking for a cozy home and a soft place to nap.

If you're searching for a calm, affectionate dog with a big heart and an even bigger personality, Brick might just be your perfect match.
