Labrador Retriever Dogs Available for Adoption in Indianapolis, Indiana

Hi, I'm Wonka! My foster mom sometimes calls me Peanut, because when I first showed up here, I was pretty tiny. I’m a yellow Labrador puppy, and now I'm a whopping 40 pounds of pure sunshine and energy, and just about four months old. Life is good!

My favorite thing ever is being outside. The smells, the textures, the sheer *freedom* of running around – it’s the best! I especially love chewing on sticks, even though my humans try to distract me with my stuff-less toys. Those flat squirrels and foxes are pretty fun to throw around, I admit. And a Nylabone? Forget about it! Give me a Kong filled with peanut butter and I’ll be occupied for a solid hour.

Playing with my puppy friends is awesome. I need another dog friend, preferably someone younger than me, someone with just as much energy. Being alone is boring. I’m really attached and I get lonely without them.

My foster mama says I need a family with a fenced yard, or even one of those invisible fences. I haven't tested the fence here, but I do love to dig. I'm a typical Lab, which means I'm a bundle of energy and love. I love kids, though my foster mom does warn that my baby shark teeth are a bit nippy. I'm losing them, though! I can sit and am learning to shake a paw, all for a yummy treat.

Even though I love being outside, I also love curling up in my foster mom’s lap for a nap. I’m crate trained, but she lets me sleep in her office with her during the day. I need a family that will take me outside a lot and keep me busy and happy. I need to learn how to walk on a leash, but if you have treats, I’m sure I can learn anything! Find me please.
