Wow, we have another litter of Lab puppies at Pet Rescue by Judy. See, this is why we are advocates of spaying and neutering your pets! There are seven of these precious babies, as well as their momma, who are looking for their forever home. Thesere are four staying with Susan , one of our fosters, and she says they are lovable cute and playful, typical lab mixes that are soft and cuddly and soon to be ready for their forever homes. They are neutered and are ready to go home. Come meet him!!!! You will fall in love!
10.10.09 Volunteer Update: Ollie was the hit of the event today! Of course, who doesn't love a little black puppy with a huge personality?? As you can tell, he must have some "retriever" in him. It seems all he wanted to do was take a swim in the water bowl. He pawed and pawed at the water - then, finally drank some water - after trying to lay in the water bowl.
As you know, Labs make great family dogs. They love people, kids, and other dogs -- they are happy as long as they have someone to play with them.
If you're interested in any of these adorable puppies, please complete an adoption form and we'll setup a meeting so you can meet one or all of them.
*** According to www.dogbreedinfo.com, the Labrador Retriever is a loving, affectionate, lovable, patient dog. Once known as the "St John's Dogs," the Labrador Retriever is one of the most popular breeds in the United States. Originally from Newfoundland, Canada the Labrador was trained to jump overboard into the icy waters to haul fisherman's nets to shore. Specimens were brought to England in the 1800's by English ships coming from Labrador, where the dog's fine retrieving instincts were honed and developed. One of the best family dogs and canine companions because of their gentle, loving disposition, the highly trainable Labrador also excels in drug detection, as a guide for the blind, and service dog for the disabled. The breed is also an outstanding obedience and field trial competitor. Highly intelligent, loyal, willing, and high-spirited. Lively and good-natured, they love to play, especially in water - for they love to swim. They have an excellent, reliable, temperament and are friendly, superb with children and equable with other dogs. They crave human attention and need to feel as though they are part of the family. Labs are easily trained. These dogs are watchdogs, not guard dogs, although some have been known to guard. They have a life expectancy of 10-12 years.
