About Stevie

Stevie is a vibrant lab/whippet mix who's really enjoying life after her time on the streets. At around 9 to 10 months old and weighing in at 35 lbs, she’s expected to be about 40 lbs fully grown. Stevie has a lean build with a barrel chest, characteristic of her Greyhound lineage. As a confident and independent pup, she thrives on attention and is great as an only dog, although she loves to socialize with other dogs during playdates. Stevie is especially fond of kids aged 10 and up, as she can get a bit jumpy when excited. She's quick to learn and already has a great "sit" command down. This active girl enjoys running around in a fenced yard but knows how to relax, too. Toys are her jam, and she can keep herself entertained. While a fenced yard would be ideal for her energy levels, she also enjoys walks in nature. Stevie is housebroken, crate trained, and knows basic commands. Come meet her in Chatham, NJ!
