Adoptable pooch Shadow is full of sunshine, says Animal Welfare League

By James Cullum

Adoptable pooch Shadow makes up for being a slow mover with his sunny disposition.

The four-year-old black and white Labrador retriever mix is up for adoption with the Animal Welfare League of Alexandria.

“You may think a bigger guy like Shadow might move a little slower, but Shadow loves all kinds of fun and games, including Fetch and Tug-of-War, as well as a long stroll,” AWLA spokesperson Gina Hardter told ALXnow. “Because Shadow will probably take up all of your lap, he’d prefer not to have to share it (and you!) with other pups.”

Schedule time to meet Shadow by emailing [email protected] or calling 703.746.4774 (opt. 2).
