Meet Betsy, an incredibly sweet Labrador Retriever/mixed breed who truly embodies the essence of a "nanny dog," even helping raise her best friend Mabel's puppies! Betsy is known for her exceptionally gentle nature and patient, nurturing spirit. She thrives when surrounded by other dogs, offering quiet comfort and devoted companionship, making her an ideal addition for families seeking a loving, loyal friend. Betsy adores cuddling up on soft pillows or the couch, and is learning how fun life can be—she especially enjoys her stuffies and playful moments dashing around the yard. Previously found in the bush in Texas, Betsy is now discovering the joy of being a beloved pet. She’s great with other dogs (especially her bonded companion Mabel), gets along well with cats, and once she warms up, is wonderful with children. Betsy continues to become more confident and enjoys the simple pleasures of play and affection. Betsy is currently heartworm positive, but treatment has already begun and all related veterinary care is covered by MHLRM. Dogs recover well from heartworm with proper care and go on to lead happy, healthy lives. If you are ready for a nurturing, tender-hearted companion to join your family, Betsy is eager to become your devoted sidekick. Click apply and let the tail-wagging begin!
