**Breed:** Labrador Retriever
**Age:** 1 year
**Sex:** Spayed Female
**Size:** 62 pounds
**The Story of Marlee:** Marlee embodies the quintessential traits of Labrador puppies – she’s full of energy, inherently curious, and has an insatiable desire to explore. Her enthusiasm is palpable when she encounters new friends, requiring a short period to calm down. Thus, she’s best suited for an owner who has experience with vivacious dogs. Marlee adores children, yet her awareness of her own strength is lacking, making it advisable for her to be in a home with children older than 7. She’s eager to make friends with other dogs, though her exuberance isn’t always reciprocated. Once her initial excitement wanes, she engages in playful interactions well with her canine companions. Marlee is proficient in house manners, crate training, and responds to basic commands. With ongoing training and consistent guidance, her delightful personality is sure to flourish even more.
**Adoption Fee:** $400
