According to the American Kennel Club, Labrador Retrievers are America’s most popular dog breed. They are medium-to-large dogs who bond well with the whole family.
Labs need a good amount of exercise and enjoy swimming or games of fetch.
Shelter workers say Hunter has a heart of gold, loves going on walks and just relaxing with people. Because of Hunter's size, Pet Pal would prefer to place him in a home without small children.
Hunter is neutered, microchipped and vaccinated. His adoption fee is $200.
