Sunflower is a beautiful young Black Labrador Retriever mix with a soft heart and a brave little spirit. After spending time caring for her puppies, she’s learning that the world can be a safe, kind place — and she’s been slowly blooming with the help of patient people, gentle routines, and quiet encouragement.

She is a sweet girl who is gaining confidence day by day. She has started enjoying her walks, staying close to her people, taking treats, and becoming more comfortable moving through new spaces. Sunflower does best when things feel calm and predictable, and she’ll appreciate a home that lets her settle in at her own pace.

With time, kindness, and a steady routine, Sunflower has so much potential to keep growing into the loyal, loving companion she’s meant to be. She’s looking for someone who sees the beauty in helping a sensitive dog feel safe — and who is ready to watch this Sunflower truly shine.

INTERESTED IN FOSTERING?

This pup is currently located at our Town Lake Animal Center (1156 W. Cesar Chavez, but use 1200 Reserve Road for mapping purposes). We'd love to show them off to you! To learn more about them, head in any day between 12:00PM - 6:00PM. We are open 7 days a week! Go to Building B and ask to speak with a Matchmaker about fostering this pup. You will sit down and discuss all we know about them and, if it's a good fit, get to meet them then! Please budget for a wait time unless you arrive right at opening as we cannot dictate walk-in traffic (wait times tend to be highest in the evenings and on weekends). If this pup ends up not being the best fit, we have so many other pups in need that we can suggest for your household on the spot!
