Foster Update - Coach is settling in beautifully. He is a gentle, loyal, and people focused Lab who thrives on routine and companionship. He prefers to stay close to me but is building confidence every day. He’s affectionate without being overwhelming and has a calm, steady presence. He eats all his meals in the crate and has started going in on his own to rest. He’s still hesitant to enter on command, but we’re working on it. When left alone, he stays quiet and calm in his crate with no signs of separation anxiety or destructive behavior. Coach walks well on a leash with a harness and sticks close by. He knows “no” and “back up,” and we’re working on “sit” and “stay.” He is house trained with regular breaks and has had no recent accidents. He enjoys stuffed animals and carefully selected his favorites, which he now keeps on his bed. He recently initiated play with a friend of mine with a bow and soft bark, and he loves getting attention from neighborhood kids. He’s been relaxed and content during brushing and grooming. Post op went well and we will add more activity to his daily routine. Coach is still learning to settle on his own, but he’s making steady progress. He would do well in any home that can offer attention, affection, and a stable routine. He’s a really great dog and it’s been a joy to watch him.
