About Sandy

Meet Sandy, a 1 1/2-year-old female Labradoodle who is closely bonded to her friend Charlie—they’ll need to find a home together. Sandy came from a tough backyard breeding situation but was given a second chance before things got worse. Despite that, her temperament is calm and quiet, and she brings a playful spirit, especially once she gets comfortable. Sandy adores spending time with people and would rather hang out with you than be left outside alone. She does get excited meeting new folks but quickly relaxes and just wants to be part of the family action. Sandy listens well, has bursts of playful energy, yet she knows when to settle down. She’s also a bit of a fence climber—a detail worth keeping in mind if you have a yard—since her curiosity gets the best of her sometimes. Overall, she thrives on companionship and wants nothing more than to be close to her humans. Sandy is fully vetted, spayed, microchipped, and ready for her next chapter alongside Charlie. If you’re after a calm, affectionate dog pair, Sandy and Charlie could be your perfect match. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
