About Ivy

Ivy is a charming female puppy discovered in a Dollar General plastic bag along a trail. After receiving a call, RCHS was ready to foster her, bringing her into a safe environment. Though we suspect she’s a Black Labrador Retriever mix, it's hard to be precise given her young age. Born around September 28, 2026, Ivy is learning quickly and has already started using a potty pad. She’s notably quieter and more laid-back than many puppies, showcasing a thoughtful demeanor. Ivy has received her first set of vaccinations and deworming, and she’s in good health. She is good with both dogs and children, making her a suitable choice for a family home. Meeting her in person really allows you to see her adorable nature; photos just don’t do her justice. The adoption fee of $125 covers her spay/neuter, vaccinations, flea and tick treatments, and microchip. Ready to give this special girl a forever home? Don't wait too long to apply!
