Mike Dempsey Labrador Retriever Adult Male

Location:

Bellingham, WA

Description:

Meet Mike, the ultimate family dog! Mike’s gentle nature shines when interacting with children. Even when playfully knocked down by a toddler, Mike's response is to lie down and cuddle, a testament to his loving and gentle spirit. He's particularly fond of antler bones and is well-trained to signal when it's time to go outside for a bathroom break, patiently sitting by the door to let you know. Mike is the epitome of patience and playfulness, never getting mouthy. He's incredibly understanding, even when his favorite toys or treats are borrowed by little hands. At mealtimes, Mike is a model of good behavior, waiting patiently for his food even when surrounded by other dogs. He's fast at eating but always respectful, never bothering his furry friends or eyeing their bowls. Mike's manners extend beyond mealtime. He's fully house trained and comfortable in his crate, where he sleeps soundly. Though he might alert you to early morning or late-night sounds with a bark, a firm "don't bark" is all it takes for him to understand. Mike is currently learning to be more comfortable around men. He warms up and accepts new people, including men, quite quickly, but he may initially react with low growls and a tucked tail. We encourage potential adopters to watch Mike’s video. At the end, you’ll see Mike interact with a man and get a full understanding of how he responds. If you're looking for a well-mannered, kid-friendly, and affectionate dog, Mike is the perfect addition to your family. His loving nature and eagerness to please will surely make him a cherished member of your household. Ready to travel as soon as December 18th!

Why adopt from Three Little Pitties? The stray and animal overpopulation in the Greater Houston area is the highest in the nation. Statistics show that there are over 1 million homeless animals in this region alone. Three Little Pitties Rescue is a nonprofit dog and cat rescue that partners with the community to make a difference. Our mission is to reduce the homeless pet population through community outreach, free spay and neuter services, and saving all breeds of dogs and cats from the streets or animal shelters that oftentimes have no other option but to euthanize animals for space. This dog youve found online is lucky to be in our program, and even luckier to have you notice it! Three Little Pitties wants to set you and your new pet up for success! We know our dogs and we work hard to prepare them socially for adoption. We are a network of dedicated people who are heavily invested in seeing our animals thrive. From the moment they are accepted into our program, our Intake, Behavior & Medical teams prepare them for adoption by properly vetting, behaviorally assessing, and providing customized plans depending on the dogs needs. We provide weekly socialization programs for our dogs through playgroups and group leash training classes available to all dogs in our adoption program, and Doggy Sleepover, Doggy Day Out, and Ambassador programs for our boarding dogs. There is a professional dog trainer on staff to provide support for our fosters and dogs, and an off-site dog trainer for dogs that need more extensive behavior modification. This helps us learn deeply about every dog, prepare them for adoption, and ultimately match them with loving families. We seek to adopt to families who understand that these are rescue dogs and will require continued training efforts, but will be well on their way to being the best dogs that they can be! It doesnt stop there! Our adopters also receive these special perks: 30 day trial of pet insurance with Trupanion (must register within 24 hours of first vet appt.) A free private online dog training session with GoodPup plus low pricing for future sessions (approx $25 weekly for an 8 week course of one session per week) One free bonus toy in every BarkBox when signing up for their Super Chewer subscription plan 70% off of your first order of Fetch, a PNW based, organic fresh dog food loaf meal subscription plan Coupons for a fun visit to Petco Access to our exclusive FB Adopters page, where you can network for play dates, resources, and connect with other adopters that share their passion for their adopted pup! We celebrated our 5 year anniversary this year! Through the combined efforts of all of our hardworking staff and volunteers, we have placed over 12,000 very lucky dogs and cats into amazing homes! By adopting from us, you save TWO lives! The pet you adopt, and you create an opportunity for another animal to be saved in that spot. Together, we can be heroes.
