About Magic

Magic knows how to command a room, even if it’s just the living room. At 2 years old and weighing in at a practical, scoopable size, she toggles effortlessly between bold adventurer and total couch potato. Expect her to shadow you with that signature Lab mix confidence—bouncing between playtime and impromptu snuggles, never missing an opportunity to remind you she’s the star of your day. She’s quick, curious, clever, and always in on the action, yet has mastered the flop for a good lounge session. Her personality walks the razor’s edge of sass and sweetness: loves toys, never turns down a walk, but equally happy perched at your side, supervising all household affairs. Magic gets along with dogs and children alike, sliding right into new routines. She’s spayed, house trained, has a medium-length black and cream coat, and her vaccinations are current. If your home needs a splash of humor and a loyal shadow with main-character energy, she might be your match. Magic is currently in Puerto Rico but will travel to New York, NY once her adoption is finalized. Ready to jump in? They are ready to love you; are you ready to apply?
