Pisa Florence Pup, Labrador Retriever For Adoption In Apex, North Carolina

Description + Description -

Hi! My name is Pisa, and I’m an 8-week-old female puppy looking for my forever family! I’m still just a baby, so I’m not fully house trained yet, but I’m already learning. I will whine to let my foster family know when I need to go potty, which is a great start! I’m also crate trained and sleep through the night like a champ. One of my cutest habits is that when I’m tired, I’ll put myself in my crate for a nap. I love being outside and exploring the world around me. Playing with my sister is one of my favorite activities, and I’ve done well around other puppies. I’m not particularly interested in other dogs right now and tend to do my own thing. I have been around children and have done great with them. I have not been introduced to cats yet, so I’m not sure how I would do with feline friends. Since I’m only 8 weeks old, I am not yet spayed. I’m up to date on my age-appropriate veterinary care. Like most puppies, I enjoy playing, exploring, and spending time with my people. I’m still too young to have much leash-walking experience, but I’m eager to learn. My foster family says I’m a smart girl who is already showing some wonderful habits for such a young puppy. If you’re looking for a sweet, affectionate puppy who loves the outdoors, enjoys playing with her sister, and is already sleeping through the night, I may be the perfect addition to your family.

The Labrador Retriever, often abbreviated to Labrador, is a breed of retriever-gun dog from the United Kingdom that was developed from imported Canadian fishing dogs. The Labrador is one of the most popular dog breeds in a number of countries in the world, particularly in the Western world. A popular disability assistance breed in many countries, Labradors are frequently trained to aid those with blindness or autism, act as a therapy dog, or perform screening and detection work for law enforcement and other official agencies. The breed is best known for their obedience, loyalty, and playful composure. Additionally, they are prized as sporting and hunting dogs. Ancestors include a breed used in Newfoundland as fishing dogs, that would help in bringing in the fishing nets and recapture escaped fish. In the 1830s, the 10th Earl of Home and his nephews the 5th Duke of Buccleuch and Lord John Scott, had imported progenitors of the breed from Newfoundland to Europe for use as gundogs. Another early advocate of these Newfoundland fishing dogs was the 2nd Earl of Malmesbury, who bred them for their expertise in waterfowling. During the 1880s, the 3rd Earl of Malmesbury, the 6th Duke of Buccleuch, and the 12th Earl of Home collaborated to develop and establish the Labrador Retriever breed. The dogs Buccleuch Avon and Buccleuch Ned, given by Malmesbury to Buccleuch, were mated with bitches carrying blood from those originally imported by the 5th Duke and the 10th Earl of Home. The offspring are the ancestors of all modern Labradors.
