Meet Squash, a sweet but independent Labrador Retriever in search of a patient and caring home. He takes a little time to warm up to new people, so don’t expect an instant cuddle bug. Squash prefers to check things out on his own terms, but food is definitely his motivator—he’ll happily sit, take a treat, then wander off again. With steady patience and gentle encouragement, Squash could surprise you by blossoming into a loyal and affectionate companion. He needs a calm environment where he can build trust at his own pace. If you’re looking for a friend who just needs some extra time and love to thrive, Squash might be exactly who you’re looking for. Click apply and let the tail-wagging begin!
