Adopt Me: Fowler, a 2-3 year old Male Chocolate Labrador, who is looking for his forever home.

Here is an UPDATED bio from his foster family:

"Fowler is doing well, and learning so much! This handsome fella is super loving and affectionate, and really enjoys his humans. He's energetic, athletic, big and strong. Fowler is a Lab that doesn't quite understand his own size & strength, and we're working on teaching him appropriate behaviors. He plays like a 6 month old puppy, in a full sized body. Fowler has been living with a second foster, Ash, for the last few weeks, and really has come in to his own. He loves playing with other dogs, has learned to temper his excitement for humans, and re-directs it with the other dog. He has grown out of a lot of his 'puppy' behaviors, is far less mouthy and jumpy. Fowler is very smart, with a strong drive for direction & work. He's getting better at heeling and walking on leash, knows 'sit', and is house trained, using a dog door. Fowler loves his naps, loves to chase a ball, and gets along with other dogs. We have no idea how he'd be with smaller animals, and while he'd love children, he doesn't know his own strength and could easily knock a little one down in his excitement. Fowler is eating well, and while he occasionally looks to counter surf, he's takes correction easily.

We have made progress on the crating Fowler. We have found the crate he cannot bust out of, and use high value treats to lure him in. We continue to make the crate a 'safe place', and while he is not happy to be crated he has made drastic improvements. He still gets excited and vocal when he's crated, but he's also learning to relax in it, and we work on his being calm before releasing him. He really has come a long way!

Fowler will need a strong leader to continue training and providing a safe, secure environment. He wants to please, and would do great with professional training. Fowler really is a big love, wanting to snuggle with people and be near them. Fowler will make an amazing companion for a family committed to continuing his training, and providing a happy, active life. "

Pending: Mongo, a 1.5 year old Black Male Labrador, who is looking for his forever home.

Here is an UPDATED bio from his foster family:

"Hi, I am Mongo and I am 1-1/2 years old.  I am very playful and have a lot of energy, but it is sporadic.  I take long walks every day and love to play, especially, with a rope toy and balls, I even entertain myself.  I love to chase balls and I will bring the ball back; however, I may chew on it for a bit before giving it back.  I'm a total sweetheart and lover.  I love to be loved, scratches behind the ears, back scratches, belly rubs and being brushed.  I can sit, lay down, place, stay, love to go for rides and load in a car well, and don't counter surf.  I also don't get on the furniture.  I know the commands: place, stay, break, sit, down, back, here, off, come, and no.  I'm working on the commands: give and drop it when playing ball.  I am really good in the house uncrated; I am housebroken, use a doggie door and crate well.  Walks/hikes are a favorite time for me; walking on a leash is a work in progress.  I am strong and I'm working on not pulling on the leash.  I have not been socialized much, but I am getting better every time I go out and walk in the park, so that is a work in progress as well.  I am a very loyal and loving companion.  I am looking for a furever home that will go for walks, take me on car rides, play with me and give me attention and love."

Adopt Me:Ash, a 5 month old Black Male Labrador, who is looking for his forever home.

Here is an UPDATED bio from his foster family:

"Ash is growing fast and learning a lot! He had to move foster homes, and is doing great with his new foster brother. He is learning how to use the dog door, loves playing but isn't too interested in the pool yet. Ash is a 5month old male black Labrador who is full of puppy energy and curiosity! Ash is eager to learn and loves to please his humans. Ash is making strides on the potty training, with regular intervals outside to reinforce proper behavior. He does vocalize his discontent when he is first put in the crate but settles down after a few minutes. Ash plays well with other dogs but does need correction cause he gets overly excited. As he is a puppy, he is energetic, mouthy, and growing. Ash will do well with someone will give him consistent training and correction. 

***Ash has 1 follow up appointments with our Vet. The adopting family will be required to complete this appointment***

Adopt Me: Duke, an 8 year old Male Yellow Labrador, is looking for his forever home.

Here is a bio from his foster family:

Please read carefully!

"Duke is just amazing. He is very gentle and a real love bug. He likes to play with tug toys and balls, and loves a walk. He eats anything, not picky at all. He does need to shed a few more pounds, so he is on a diet. Don’t tell him, he doesn’t know. When he is finished with his food, he’ll even bring the bowl to you to fill up again. Nice try Dukey!!! He uses a dog door, and will stand by our gate when we leave to wait for us to return. He sleeps in bed with us, and sometimes gets out of bed and lays on the floor next to the bed. He can be mouthy when playing, is very gentle and responds to “No”. Duke is very obedient. He knows sit, stay, down, go to bed, bring me your bowl, come", and perhaps a few others. He will go in his crate, but he has free run of our house. He has a “person”, and is very attached. Duke is like Velcro with his favorite person. Duke does get along with other dogs, but we are unsure of cats.

Duke had a very rough period of adjustment coming in to foster care, he really loved his original family, and now totally trusts his fosters. There will be an adjustment period, and will need extra time, patience and love to adjust to his furever home. Duke is also treated for dry eyes and gets 2 different sets of drops, twice a day. He is pretty good about the drops, but it can be tricky. We have it down to a science and can teach any adoptive family the tricks. This boy is one in a million."

IMPORTANT: Duke has Addison’s Disease , so the adopting family will need to take him for regular vet visits to get a shot to maintain his system. It is under control now, as we and our vet worked diligently to find correct meds and dosage. Duke currently needs the medication every 10 weeks and price can vary between veterinary hospitals.
