Hi… I’m Erika 🐾 I’m a 3-month-old puppy, about 11 pounds, and full of happy, playful energy. I’m Mila’s sister, and just like her, I have a big heart and a sweet, loving personality. I’m a mix of Labrador Retriever and Pug mix which makes me a little unique — but also very special. My mom is around 40 pounds lab mix and my dad is about 17 pounds pug mix, so I’ll likely grow into a smaller medium-sized dog. I am still young to be neutered but am vaccinated, microchipped, and house-trained. I’m available for adoption in Washington or Oregon by the end of March and can travel to Vancouver,BC for the right family. My adoption fee is $800USD.

Both of my parents were confiscated from a homeless encampment, and because of that, my siblings and I were given a chance at a safer, brighter future. My dad is a shorter, reddish pug mix and weighs about 17 pounds. My mom is black labrador mix, knee-high, around 40 pounds — strong, gentle, and beautiful. I guess that means I’ll grow into a perfect in-between size, just right for cuddles and adventures. I love to play with other dogs of all sizes — big or small, everyone is my friend. I’m also very comfortable around cats, and I have a calm, easygoing nature. I’m not a big barker — I’m more of a happy, quiet companion. I’m already crate trained and doing a really good job learning potty training. I’m a smart girl and I like to learn, especially when I get love and encouragement. During the day, I enjoy playing, exploring, and being around my people. And when I get tired, I’m happy to relax and just be close to you. People say I’m very calm for a puppy my age. I don’t rush through life — I like to take it in. I’m happiest when I’m close to my people, curled up beside them, watching the world go by. I’m already fully pee-pad trained and doing great with pottying outside too, because I really want to be a good girl and make you proud. I love everyone I meet, but little kids hold a very special place in my heart. I stick close to them, follow them gently, and sit beside them like it’s exactly where I’m meant to be. Their laughter makes me feel safe. I don’t need a loud or busy home to be happy. I just want love, kindness, and a place where I can grow at my own pace. I’d be perfect for a family, a first-time dog parent, or anyone looking for a calm, affectionate puppy with a soft soul. I didn’t choose how my life started — but I’m so hopeful about where it’s going. What I’m dreaming of now is my forever home… a place where I’ll be cherished, protected, and loved for all my days. I’m looking for a family who will give me love, patience, and guidance as I grow. In return, I’ll be a loyal, affectionate, and joyful companion. If you’re looking for a puppy with a gentle heart, sweet manners, and so much love to give… I’m right here. Tiny paws. Big heart. Ready to come home. Love, Erika
