About Volar

Meet Volar! This charming Lab and Heeler mix was born on June 28, 2026. He’s still getting used to new people, especially those who stand tall. When he feels anxious, he often flattens like a little fawn or crawls to a cozy spot. Thankfully, he’s making strides! With some patience, he’s starting to approach people for gentle chin scratches when they crouch down. Once he feels safe, Volar transforms into an affectionate cuddle bug, happy to curl up in your lap for hours. This little guy is excelling in potty training, outshining his siblings in his efforts to go outside. He also loves food, which will be a great motivator for positive-reinforcement training as he gains confidence. Volar gets along well with the other dogs in his foster home. He’ll thrive in a home that offers patience and understanding, allowing him to build trust on his terms. Watching Volar discover the world can be a profoundly rewarding experience. He has started his vaccinations, been microchipped, and will be neutered soon. Fostered in West Richland, WA. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
