Description:Jay is the world's friendliest lab/beagle mix. He was found by a UCF student one evening when she opened her car door and he jumped in! She looked for his owners, but had no luck. She knew that she couldn't give him the kind of home he needed (responsible college student!!) and so Judy took him in the hopes of finding him a wonderful forever home.
As you can tell from the description above, Jay LOVES the car. He is happiest looking out the window at the passing cars and wagging his tail. When he gets exhausted from the tail wagging, he will just curl up and put his head gently down on the driver's lap. He's extremely friendly and sweet and will make a wonderful family dog.
Likes tennis balls, is very affectionate, needs a little leash training, crate trained, gets along well with some dogs, but does not get along well with cats.
*** 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
