Good with dogs and cats | Good with kids 

Raphael is a 3–6 month old male Labrador Retriever mix weighing 22.8 lbs. Labrador Retriever mixes are typically friendly, intelligent, and highly social dogs that thrive on companionship and consistent guidance. As a growing puppy, Raphael is still learning the world around him and will benefit from structure, patience, and positive reinforcement as he builds confidence.

Raphael is a very shy little guy who may bark when he feels uncertain or overwhelmed around new people or situations. Once he feels safe, he shows his sweet side and enjoys the company of other dogs and playing with toys. He is good with dogs, cats, and kids, making him a flexible companion for a family willing to help him continue building confidence.

He is crate trained and does well in that space, but leash walking is still very new to him and he is currently scared, so he will need slow, gentle leash training and reassurance. His energy level is medium, which fits well with a mix of playful puppy energy and quiet, cautious moments.

Raphael is heartworm negative and has no known health concerns or physical limitations. He will do best in a calm, patient home that can continue basic puppy training, help him overcome his shyness, and encourage his social skills at his own pace.
