Bagel, ~ 2 years Female Lab/Shepherd/Husky/Basenji Click on picture to enlarge Available On: 9/28/26 Apply To Adopt Bagel will be at the Fall Festival at Russell's Garden Center, 397 Boston Post Road, Wayland on Sunday, October 18th from 1-3pm! Come meet her at the Save A Dog booth! Bagel is a two-year-old, 40-pound mixed breed who is a bundle of joy! She was in a foster home in Indiana, and her foster mom says once she settled into home life, she showed herself to be affectionate, smart, and fun-loving. If you're looking for an exercise buddy, she's the best! Bagel loves food and takes to positive reinforcement training with great motivation. She wants to please and learns quickly. She is an energetic girl who has epic zoomies and would love a yard where she could run or the opportunity to get outdoors for hikes and walks. She gets along well with other dogs, but cats are not her thing -- her play style can be overwhelming for them. She rides well in the car and is fully housetrained and crate trained. She can be unsure about loud noises and sudden movements, so older kids and a quiet neighborhood would be best for her. She is a brave girl who mostly just wants to be with her humans. Her foster mom writes, "Bagel is a truly wonderful dog and companion who is just waiting to give someone snuggles and kisses. She will make you laugh every day with her silly personality -- she just needs the opportunity to show you her true, sweet self."
