About Jet

Meet Jet, a two-and-a-half-month-old Labrador Retriever/German Shepherd mix in Yakima, WA. Jet arrived through a program dedicated to finding loving homes for puppies and helping reduce pet overpopulation by ensuring his mom is safely spayed. With his big heart and sturdy build, Jet stands out as a friendly, outgoing puppy who thrives on attention and affection. He's quick to greet new people and shows confidence and curiosity in everything he does. Jet enjoys exploring the world, playing with enthusiasm, and soaking up as many cuddles as he can get. Like every growing puppy, he's still learning essential manners. Expect plenty of normal puppy antics—chewing, jumping up when excited, bursts of playful energy, and regular trips outside. Jet will need consistent routines, positive reinforcement, and lots of patience to help him grow into a well-mannered adult. Early training and socialization, especially classes focused on basic manners and leash skills, will help him reach his potential. Jet needs a home ready for the fun (and work) of raising an eager, smart large-breed puppy. He promises loyalty, companionship, and lots of puppy kisses in return for love, guidance, and room to grow. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
