Name: Ivy
Breed: Terrier/Lab Mix
Gender: Female
Date of Birth: 3/28/26

Like the plant she’s named for, Ivy has a way of growing on you fast. This Terrier/Lab mix girl is tenacious, charming, and ready to wind her way right into your heart. Born in late March 2026, Ivy is smack in the middle of that magical puppy stage where every day brings a new discovery and every person she meets is an instant favorite.

Ivy is wonderful with other dogs, cats, and kids, making her an easy and joyful addition to just about any home. She’s got that perfect puppy balance — playful and energetic when it’s time to romp, and delightfully cuddly when the day winds down. Her Lab genes bring a natural warmth and eagerness to connect, while her terrier side adds a spirited curiosity that makes her endlessly entertaining to watch. Once Ivy decides she loves you — and she will — you’ll feel it with every wag, every nudge, and every impromptu lap sit.

Terrier/Lab mixes are clever, devoted, and absolutely thrive when given love, consistency, and early training to channel all that puppy energy in the right direction. Ivy is at the perfect age to soak it all in — eager to learn, eager to please, and eager to find the family she’ll call her own. Fair warning: once she grows on you, there’s no going back.
