Peanut

My story

Peanut is available for adoption in Texas only. Meet Peanut, a sweet 1-year-old lab mix weighing in at 45 pounds. Affectionately nicknamed Peanut Butter, this gentle girl may be shy at first, but with a little patience and time, she blossoms into a silly, playful companion who will melt your heart. Peanut is a pro at being house-trained and crate-trained. In fact, she adores her crate and considers it her safe haven. When we leave the house, she happily retreats to her crate and even prefers to spend her time there when we are home, with the door open for her to come and go as she pleases. Though we don't have young children in our home, we believe Peanut would do well with kids, though she might be a bit timid around them initially. Our teenagers get along great with her, and she has shown herself to be wonderful with other dogs, both big and small. We don't have any cats, so we're not sure how she would do with feline friends. Peanut's ideal home would be a calm, low-energy environment with a patient person or family who understands that she needs time to adjust. Once she feels comfortable, she reveals her true character-a playful, laid-back dog who loves to gather and keep soft, squishy toys in her crate. These toys seem to provide her with a sense of comfort and security, likely because she had to fend for herself on the streets before finding her way to us. Though Peanut doesn't bark much and prefers napping, she occasionally surprises us with a burst of energy and adorable zoomies, which never fail to bring a smile to our faces. She also does well on a leash and enjoys leisurely walks. If you are looking for a loyal companion who is low-maintenance and enjoys a peaceful environment, Peanut is the perfect match. Her gentle spirit and loving nature make her the sweetest dog you'll ever meet. Come meet Peanut and see how she can bring joy and tranquility to your home!
