Jace is a gentle, eager puppy ready for a fresh start in New York, NY. At just over a year old, Jace weighs in at 13 pounds and carries a soft yellow and black coat that hints at his Labrador Retriever and Black Mouth Cur mix. He’s still working through some shyness, so a calm and loving environment is important for him. Patient care will help him come into his own and trust his people fully. Jace is young, quick to learn, and already making progress with leash and crate training. This makes the learning curve for house training and adjusting to routines much gentler. He’s open to new experiences—he gets along well with other dogs, is social with cats, and is young enough to fit comfortably in homes with children. His siblings—Rock, Bolt, Zane, Randy, Gabi, and Gigi—are also looking for homes, so he’s used to the company of other animals. Daily structure and gentle attention will help Jace thrive. As a puppy, he needs guidance, patience, and steady love. Jace’s adoption comes with full transparency; breed and adult size can’t be guaranteed. Even though Jace is working on being house trained, ongoing patience during his transition to your home is necessary. He is up to date on vaccinations and ready to meet prospective adopters in New York. Jace is an Aries—no wonder he’s quietly brave and ready to grow into his personality.
