About Ariel

Ariel is a delightful Labrador Retriever mix who arrived at the shelter on October 17, 2026. She sports a lovely golden-tan coat with a striking white blaze on her face along with a white chest and paws. Her soft, folded ears and gentle dark eyes create an endearing look that's hard to resist. At around 8 months old and weighing 36.25 pounds, she is still growing and is expected to reach between 48 and 58 pounds. The busy shelter environment has been a big change for her, but she’s starting to adjust and show her sweet nature. Ariel is new to leash walking, which means every outing will be an exciting adventure for her. She responds to commands with a sit and is eager to learn. This young pup is also currently sharing her kennel with Belle, making them a charming pair to adopt together, though she’d thrive wonderfully in a loving home of her own. Ariel is up to date on vaccinations, heartworm negative, and will be spayed before she goes home. Come meet her in kennel 832. Make sure to ask for her ID number when you inquire about Ariel!
