My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

SURF'S UP! What's up? I'm Reef, a ridiculously adorable labby-esque guy with a passion for splashin' in kiddie pools. I especially love to roll around in them with other dogs. I'm a frequent flyer through playgroups, and you will always find me in the center of the action, just splashing away and having the best time ever. I have spent some time in a foster home, and I did great with their other dog and did alright with their kitty. I may need to learn some boundaries, but with a proper introduction I think I could live with a cat. I have, unfortunately, spent a good chunk of my puppyhood in the shelter, so I may need a refresher course on potty training and the basic stuff, but you'll find I am a quick study and excellent student, and I know with a routine I will catch onto everything in no time. Ask to play with me today!
