THEA NEEDS A FOSTER OR FOREVER HOME!!!! Name: Thea Best Guess for Breed: Retriever mix Best Guess for Age: 6 months as of February 2025 SEX: Female Estimated Weight: 27 lbs as of 2/7/25; she is still growing! Gets Along With: Other dogs! We haven't seen her with kids or cats but she can be tested if you have them. Currently Living at: Shelter; needs a foster or forever home in the DC area to get her freedom ride up here! Thea is Looking For: This sweetie is out of the tiny squishy puppy stage but she's still a bigger old puppy and she wants what all puppies want - lots of play time and lots of love! She has so much to see and do. She'd love to do it all by the side of her humans. Long sniffy walks, romps in parks, all the adventures her new family can dream up - yes, please! And she'd love to go to dog school to continue the training she began in the shelter.What she wants most of all is to know where she belongs, that she's safe and loved for all her days. In exchange, she promises to always make you smile, to give you adoring gazes - and loyal companionship. What do you say? Is Thea the one for your home and your heart? What Shelter Staff Say About Thea: Thea spent some time on the Dogs Playing For Life Canine Center campus in Florida. There, she received basic training and enrichment, and socialized with other dogs. Thea worked on the Sit and Place commands there. She also worked on loose leash walking and sitting at open doors, waiting to be released to go out. Boo also learned to play with enrichment toys such as food-filled Kongs and food puzzles. She became comfortable socializing with other dogs in playgroup; her play style is described as gentle and dainty. She could make a great doggy sibling for another gentle pup!
