He gets along well with my two other Labs, he swims, loves to play with toys, swims, retrieves tennis balls, and did I mention he swims? He stands still and enjoys being dried with a towel (he likes the massage!), but is not beyond coming in soaking wet and waiting to shake until he gets near a lot of furniture!<\/p>\n<p>He knows some commands (Sit, No and Stay) and we're working on others.  A quick learner, he is smart and wants to please. Welby eats like a gentleman and is very soft when he takes a treat from my hand. Not a chewer or a counter-surfer. He will go into his crate and settle down nicely but likes a treat or toy tossed in first as an incentive.  He uses the dog door although after living outdoors before coming to us, he sometimes needs a little reminder about going outside to lift his leg.  This gets better every day.  He's also very good in the car.<\/p>\n<p>The best thing about Welby is his personality. He has all the happy-go-lucky traits of most Labs, but he seems somehow wise. Like he knows the few scratches and scrapes he carries just add character. My guess is that he's had a couple of walks on the wild side in his past. Now, he is definitely looking for a good loving relationship where he can just snuggle alot and hang out and ponder the universe together with his new people pack.  Maybe that's you!  \"<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>See a list of Available Labs <a href=\"https:\/\/lvlabrescue.com\/wedoitforthelabs\/category\/available_labs\/\" title=\"Available Labs\">here<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Adopted: Welby, a 4 year old Male Yellow Labrador, has found his forever home.
