Meet Gaston! This charming 1-year-old Yellow Labrador Retriever is on the lookout for his forever family. Gaston has a big personality and an even bigger heart. He’s a strong, energetic boy who loves to spread joy wherever he goes. His enthusiasm is contagious, and while he’s still learning to tone down his playful nature, it’s part of what makes him so endearing. An active family that enjoys the outdoors would be just what Gaston needs. A home with a backyard for him to run and play in would be his dream come true! Despite his energy, he knows some impressive manners—he takes treats gently and responds well to commands like sit, paw, and down.
