Nectar is just as sweet as his name. At 1.5 years old, this Retriever mix brings a steady supply of joy wherever he goes—he really does look like he’s just heard the best joke every time you see him. Only 16 pounds, Nectar manages to pack a whole lot of happiness in a small, short-coated body. He landed at the rescue with his whole crew—Nifty, Niblet, Novella, and Niche—and keeps up his happy, outgoing spirit no matter what. Nectar is a true social butterfly; his “best day ever” attitude makes him a quick favorite for both people and dogs. It’s not just his vibe—Nectar has an irresistible grin that practically never leaves his face. Whether he’s trotting around the yard, waiting for a snack, or soaking up affection, he always looks happy to be part of the action. He fits the “golden retriever” persona but in a much smaller frame, beaming with joy, ready for snuggles, but never needy. He’s cheerful, affectionate, and social but knows how to keep himself in check. Give him treats, company, or a bit of both, and he’s living his best life. Nectar is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and has a clean bill of health from his heartworm and tick-borne disease test. He’s house trained and ready to bring sunshine into someone’s home. This little dog might just spoil your sense of what happiness looks like in a companion. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
