About Bubbles

Meet Bubbles, a sweet and goofy Labrador Retriever looking for a place to call home. At about 1.5 to 2 years old, Bubbles is on a fitness journey and would love a family who’ll keep her active—but she also knows the joy of downtime. She weighs in at 86 lbs for now, so those longer adventures need to be balanced with rest, fetch in the yard, and plenty of comfy couch time. Bubbles thrives with canine company and really needs another friendly dog around. She gravitates toward dogs for companionship, games of keep-away, and those exploratory sniffing walks. Since arriving in foster care, Bubbles has gained more confidence every day—she even hops into the car on her own now. Inside, she’s all about cuddling, sharing the couch, and curling up for naps. She’s gentle, quiet, a little silly, and known to collect stray shoes just to grab your attention. Chew toys (and stuffed toys, beware) top her list. If you want a loyal, good-natured, playful dog who’s just as happy to relax with you as romp with another dog, Bubbles is as genuine as they come. She’s currently in Concord, CA.
