About Lady

Meet Lady! This lovable five-year-old Shar Pei/Labrador Retriever mix is a joyful presence in Youngsville, NC. With her charming squishy face and silky-soft tan coat, she’s the embodiment of playful spirit and snuggly sweetness. At about 50 pounds, Lady loves life’s simple pleasures, especially anything ball-related! Whether chasing them, carrying them, or proudly showing them off, she’s toy-obsessed. When her people are busy, she’ll entertain herself, proving to be her own one-dog show, and she has a soft spot for cuddly stuffed animals, too. Watching her happily trot around with her favorite toy is sure to bring a smile. When playtime winds down, she’s ready to cozy up on the sofa with you while you read or watch TV, eager to be your sleeping buddy. For her soft, velvety coat, regular brushing will help keep it looking fabulous. Lady loves walks, yard play, and exploring new scents. She’s house-trained and crate trained, managing well alone for short periods. Her ideal canine companions are laid-back male dogs, as she’s not keen on sharing toys and prefers to have the limelight as the only pet. She requires a cat-free home and would do best in an adult environment or with older children, as she’s more comfortable with women and may need some extra time to warm up to men. Storms can be a bit nerve-wracking for her, so a patient family will be a great fit. Lady is spayed, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations. Could this sweet, silly, ball-loving snugglebug be the perfect companion for you? What are you waiting for? Apply today!
