About Hammond

Hammond is a lively and playful 6-year-old neutered Yellow Labrador Retriever who weighs around 50 pounds. He thrives on activity but also knows the value of downtime. His ideal home would embrace a mix of adventures and cozy moments, perfect for either a family or a single person. Hammond has come from Ellos Son La Razon in Mexico and is ready to find his forever home. He's making excellent strides in potty training and is crate trained, although he may need a bit of guidance initially. He enjoys walks and is great on a leash, showing no pulling behavior. He’s friendly around medium to large dogs but tends to be wary of smaller pets, so a home without them might be best. While he hasn't had extensive interaction with children or cats, he seems likely to fit in well with kids. This goofy guy enjoys fetch, tug-of-war, and puzzle toys, always eager for playtime. He loves connecting with people, leaning in for affection whenever possible. Hammond may experience mild anxiety, especially when left alone, but he settles down quickly. One amusing quirk about him is his disinterest in watching animal shows on TV for too long. He is patiently waiting for someone to embrace his spirited nature.
