Puma & Nike are strongly bonded, so we want to adopt them out together.
These two friendly competitors are sure to knock your socks off. In some ways they are a lot alike – strong independent females, Labrador Retriever Mixes, both enjoy short walks and are learning all about city life. However, when the competitive side takes over they can be quite different – Puma lives by the motto Forever Faster, while Nike lives by the affirmation Just Do It! At the end of the day when it’s time to relax, take their shoes off, and let their paws out, they are the best of friends with nothing but love for each other.
Here’s what their foster has to say:
Nike is an adorable Lab mix. A little shy but sweet. She likes to snuggle up and will roll over for a belly rub. She has been learning how to climb stairs and is doing very well. She walks nicely on the leash and likes exploring our garden. Nike relieves herself in the garden or on walks. Nike loves attention. Nike sleeps well throughout the night. She doesn’t bark.
Puma aka ‘Yoda Girl’ looks like a refined lady, but she has a serious goofy side. She is playful. Puma enjoys exploring our garden. She walks nicely on leash and handles stairs well. Puma relieves herself in the garden. She is so appreciative of any affection. Puma sleeps well throughout the night. She doesn’t bark.
We left Puma and Nike alone in their pen for over an hour while we went out. They were both well-behaved and quiet. The girls had a bubble bath and both did very well. Puma continues to show her personality as a very playful little scamp. She is always baiting Nike to play with her. Nike, on the other hand, is quieter and just wants her belly rubbed. Although, she does like to come up behind you and pop her head between your legs to say “hello!”
During our walks, Puma isn’t too sure about large dogs but seems fine with smaller dogs. Both dogs really enjoy being outside in the yard. They have good appetites and their favorite treat is hot dogs.
