Meet Donovan #5. This handsome 2-year-old purebred yellow male Labrador Retriever weighs in at 50 lbs of pure sweetness. Donovan is as gentle and loving as they come. He’s great with other dogs and would do well in a home with older kids. While he hasn’t been around toddlers, his easygoing nature and willingness to be handled make him a wonderful companion. This sweet boy is always ready for a play date and enjoys being around his people. On walks, Donovan does best using a gentle leader harness rather than a traditional collar, helping him stay comfortable and focused. If you’re looking for a kind-hearted, affectionate pup to add to your family, Donovan just might be your perfect match!
