Hi, I’m Rae! I was born around January 12, 2026, and I’m a Shepherd/Lab mix expected to grow into about 45 pounds. My journey started on the side of the road with my mama and siblings, and while it wasn’t the easiest beginning, I’ve grown into a gentle, calm, and loving little girl who’s ready for a bright future. Here’s why I’m such a special pup: Gentle & Calm – I have a peaceful, easygoing nature that makes me a joy to be around. Playful Companion – I love playing with my siblings and enjoying puppy fun. Affectionate Heart – I enjoy cuddles and being close to my people. Independent Thinker – I’m happy to entertain myself or relax on my own when needed. I’m pee pad trained and still learning the basics like leash walking and crate training. I have mild anxiety, but I settle quickly and do a great job finding my comfort—whether that’s next to you, with a sibling, or in a quiet cozy spot. I’m a wonderful mix of playful and calm, which makes me very easy to live with and love. My dream home would have a yard where I can sunbathe, explore, and play. I’d love a family that enjoys both fun moments and relaxing downtime. I do great with other dogs and am very respectful of their space, so I’d fit in nicely with a furry sibling—or I’d be just as happy soaking up all the love myself. My adoption fee is $550, this fee covers my first year of vaccinations, spay/neuter, and microchip. Do I sound like the dog for you?
