Rescue Dog Behavior Changes Week by Week
Bringing home a rescue dog means observing their behavior changes week by week. Learn what to expect beyond the 3-3-3 rule and how to support your new.
Meet Tracey, a sweet and playful puppy who is eagerly searching for her forever family! At just 7 weeks old, Tracey is full of typical puppy curiosity and joy. She loves to play with toys, get her 'zoomies' out, and then settle in for some much-deserved snuggles. Tracey is a social butterfly and is expected to get along well with other dogs, cats, and children, making her a wonderful addition to almost any loving home. She's ready to learn and grow with her new family.
As a Labrador Retriever mix, Tracey will likely inherit the friendly, outgoing, and intelligent traits that make Labs so popular. Labrador Retrievers are known for their eagerness to please, making them highly trainable. They have a moderate shedding coat that requires low grooming, typically just weekly brushing to keep it healthy. Labs are active dogs with high energy and exercise needs, requiring daily walks, playtime, and mental stimulation to keep them happy and well-behaved.
Tracey is looking for an active home where she can receive plenty of love, training, and socialization. Her ideal family will be committed to continuing her puppy education, including house training and obedience classes, to help her develop into a well-mannered adult dog. Due to her young age, she will need multiple potty breaks throughout the day. If you have room in your heart and home for a spirited, cuddly, and smart puppy, Tracey can't wait to meet you!
