About Ada

Meet Ada! She's a 1-year-old mixed breed dog, a delightful blend of Shepherd and Labrador Retriever, weighing in at a firm 53 pounds. Ada has a goofy charm that makes her a joy to be around. She fills her days with playful antics and adores settling down with her favorite toys or a tasty bone. Ada shines when it comes to socializing; she gets along wonderfully with her foster’s dog and is quite friendly with the resident kitten. House trained and leash trained, she walks nicely but is always eager to learn more. Though she might be a bit hesitant to jump into a car, once she’s in, she loves the ride. This smart girl is treat motivated and would benefit from continued training to boost her confidence. While she enjoys crate time when her people are out, she loves being part of the family and the action when they’re home. Keep an eye on those counters, though; Ada can be a bit of a counter-surfer when something delicious calls her name! With patience and encouragement, she will discover that the world is a friendly place. If you’re ready to provide the love and support Ada needs to thrive, let’s get started!
