Labrador Retriever Dogs Available for Adoption in Pekin, Illinois

Meet sweet Sandy. Sandy was found running as a stray, so we do not have any background on her. She is a young 7 month old Labrador mix that weighs 42lbs, but still may grow some. She loves to run and would love a fenced yard to run in and explore. She got very excited initially when I got her out, but after running a little she would lay back for belly rubs the big smile pics are after belly rubs. She is also a kisser. She will need ongoing training that may include potty training, but she did potty for me while out. She needs a little help with socialization. She is smart knows sit. With love and training, she will make a great addition to a family.
