Iris - Labrador Retriever For Adoption in Benton County, Arkansas

"❗️We will provide the rest of his food, treats and chew toys.❗️ He’s a very sweet puppy who sleeps a lot and responds well to training and treats. He doesn’t bark much and he’s a big cuddler. When we found him he was outside in the sun for days and was still just so happy to be held and safe. My partner and I can no longer afford him and we are moving soon so we need a good home for him to thrive in."

My dog is an incredibly calm and relaxed companion. She rarely barks unless she’s been left alone for a while, and even then, it’s more out of loneliness than anything else. Most of the time, you’ll find her napping peacefully or lounging somewhere close by. She’s laid-back and loves to just chill in her favorite spots where she can keep an eye on me—but she’s not clingy. She’ll lay next to you or nearby, but she respects space and isn’t one to jump all over you. When it comes to chewing, she’s very well-behaved. She sticks to her toys and won’t chew on anything else, although she is definitely curious. She’ll often sniff or lick other objects, but never damages them. She absolutely loves being outdoors. As soon as she gets outside, her energy flips on—she runs around with excitement and loves exploring. It’s such a fun contrast to her calm indoor personality. You can always tell how she’s feeling by looking at her ears—they’re super expressive and let you know exactly what mood she’s in. She’s very friendly and playful with children, getting along great with my younger siblings. She also does well with cats and is friendly with my neighbor’s cat. As for other dogs, she used to live with her sister and they got along—but they’d also argue like siblings do—so I’m not totally sure how she is with new dogs. In the car, she’s an excellent passenger. We go a lot of places together, and she’s always in the backseat. She rides calmly and even enjoys sticking her head out the window, but she knows not to lean out too far. She also knows basic commands like “sit.” She’s house-trained and has a clear potty routine. She usually stands by the door when she needs to go out, and if she's about to go inside, she’ll start sniffing in circles. She prefers to go potty shortly after eating (within about two minutes), before getting in the car, and again right after car rides. As for food—yeah, I spoil her a bit. I give her a little extra love in that area, but she’s not a picky eater at all. Overall, she’s a sweet, mellow dog with bursts of playful energy and a heart full of love. She’s smart, respectful, and just the perfect mix of calm and fun.

Stella is a sweet and fun mixed breed puppy. She has a black coat with undertones of tan brindle. My son adopted her from a litter of puppies while away at college. She has come home with him to live with us while we find her a loving home. My son cannot have a dog in his next residence and wants to study abroad. I am not able to care for a second dog right now. Stella is very smart and is being crate trained. She still has accidents but is almost there! She knows the command sit and is working on leash skills. She loves playing with our Labradoodle and she is super engaged with people. She loves to snuggle and be near you. I don’t have young children but she has encountered kids on walks and seems to love them. We are very attached to her and want to make sure she goes to a caring home.

Luce (pronounced Loo-ch-aye) is a 75 pound black lab mixed with GSD. She is the sweetest dog, has no aggression and gets along very well with other dogs. She is leash reactive, so someone with experience would be a great fit. About her, (2 years old and spayed) birthday 12-25 (Christmas miracle!!) Luce is a friendly giant, I like to call her my iron giant (like the movie) because she doesn’t realize how big she is and makes clumsy little mistakes because of her size but is just the nicest and goofiest dog. She will lick your tears when you cry and will jump for joy with you when you’re happy. She is the ultimate girls girl :) She loves to play fetch and is very affectionate. Her favorite hiding spot is under the bed but every morning you will wake up to her laying right next you waiting to greet you for the morning. I cant express how hard this is for me to do because she is my family and we have been through a lot together.. so if anyone is interested in keeping in contact with me until you feel like she is settled in her new home and happy, that would make me feel at peace.
