Dante

My story

Meet Dante Male | Lab Mix | Born 4/5/2025 Dante had a rough start to life—but he’s ready for a bright future. Born outside on April 5th while his mom was tied to a tree and severely neglected, Dante and his five siblings spent their first nine weeks of life surviving in the woods with little to no human contact. Despite her condition, their brave momma (a lab mix) cared for them as best she could. Their dad is believed to be a chocolate lab. Now rescued and safe in a foster home, Dante is slowly learning what it means to feel safe, loved, and cared for. He’s still a bit timid but is making progress every day. He’s working on socialization, potty training, and crate training—and will thrive with a patient adopter who’s committed to helping him continue to grow into a confident, happy pup. Dante is looking for a forever home that understands he didn’t get the easiest start and will give him the time and love he needs to flourish. If you’re ready to open your heart to this special boy, we’d love to hear from you. Apply to adopt at www.keytolionsheart.orgJuly 2, 2025, 9:05 pm
