Hi everyone, my name is Zayne, but I also go by "good boy" because that's what everyone calls me when they meet me! Some would say I am the epitome of what it means to be 'Man's best friend', I am loyal, love companionship, cooperative and have unconditional love to give. I am up for any adventure you throw my way, as long as someone is there with me to share the experience with. Zayne is approximately 9y 0m 29d old and is fully grown at 46 pounds. They are microchipped and up to date on all age-appropriate medical care. Their breed is unknown as we have not had a DNA test done. Although our dogs are listed as unknown breed, buildings with specific dog restrictions typically enforce their rules based on what breeds a dog appears to resemble. It's always important to keep that in mind and know your building's policies before adopting a dog. This dog is available for adoption through Muddy Paws Rescue. If you're interested in adopting, the first thing you should do is begin the registration process at www.muddypawsrescue.org. If you are already a registered adopter with Muddy Paws Rescue, please email us at adoptionmeetings@muddypawsrescue.org.
🧠 Temperament
Retriever types are generally sociable, food-motivated and easy to train — among the most forgiving dogs for a first-time owner.
🎾 Exercise
High — 60-90 minutes daily with fetch and swimming as favorites.
✂️ Grooming
Double coats that shed; brush weekly.

It's always important to keep that in mind and know your building's policies before adopting a dog. Size and shedding are the constraints, temperament rarely is.
