About Latte "make Me Your

Latte is an elegant, gentle retriever mix who’s about 2 years old and weighs around 43 pounds. She’s got the warm tones of apricot and gold in her short coat, and her first reaction is caution—she’ll bark at her own shadow. Latte often needs time to feel comfortable but blossoms into an affectionate, attentive companion once she knows she’s safe. Her favorite thing to do is run and play with other friendly dogs—especially her siblings Frappuccino and Americano—so a home with another social dog would help her thrive. Latte’s prey drive is real; she’s an expert at chasing lizards and birds, so a secure, fenced yard outside the city is her ideal playground. Latte will do best in a quiet home without children. She is house trained, spayed, vaccinated, heartworm negative, and microchipped. She’s quiet, observant, and happiest in the company of other dogs, spending her day moving between watchful curiosity and bursts of play. Latte is currently located in Puerto Rico and will be transported to New York or New Jersey once adopted. Click apply to start the adoption process.
