We got this sweet female lab at work today from a sanctuary in Seguin. We get so many animals from that place and we usually just neuter them and return them back. But they have trouble finding homes, and this sweetheart just pulled at my heartstrings! She's had her shots, she's spayed now, on flea preventative, and is such a loving girl! I asked to take her home and foster her here until I find a good home for her. Now she is very shy.. she didn't want to enter our house but with a little love and care she can easily get out of this phase. She's about 2 years old.. here's a couple of pics of her:

Please, if anyone would like to give her a home or knows anyone who would give her the care she deserves please message me! She's free to a good home! :)

Ahh cute. I hope someone from here takes her.

We tried the third dog experiment with "Manu" and it didn't work out. So we have to stick with two dogs only.

Damn that's a beautiful dog. I would have taken her but I have too many as it is. :(

I know of an art gallery that has an opening for a dog.

:( She looks like a sweetheart, but my two are too outgoing for her.

And my parents would kill me if I came back with another dog.

Is she housebroken?

And what is wrong with her leg?

it looks like that's where she might have gotten an IV. i could be wrong, but that's what the dressing looks like.

She's a beautiful dog.

You're right blizz, it's from the IV. She is very adorable, she's just been laying in my room getting her rest. I took her out to use the bathroom and she went but I've only had her today. I'll have her during the week so I'll post more as I learn more about her personality.

Also she was just spayed and she's still drowsy from the surgery so I don't know how she normally acts. She's mostly sleeping now..

Wish I could help but my dogs would totally disown me if I brought another dog home.

Here's to hoping she finds a good home. :)

It might help if you could give some idea about her size/weight. I can't tell for certain from the pics how big she is, and I know that's part of our criteria. We can't take her, unfortunately, because while we and Jonah would love another doggie companion, we haven't the space (even for a small dog).

I might be interested, but curious about her personality. We just moved into our new home and have one acre. Its not fenced yet, so she would have to be house broken. I would have to speak to my wife about it as well.

What a wondeful dog.

I rent and so cannot take her. But what a beauty!

She's about 60 lbs.. a little shorter than most labradors. And she seems to like being outside more than indoors. I have her here in the clinic right now, I'm trying to socialize her some more. The whole time at my house she didnt use the bathroom until I took her outside, and so far here as well. She's very quiet! I'm thinking she may have been abused because she acts timid and fearful, like most foster dogs. But she's a total sweetheart, she hasn't barked or growled or anything. She just wants some love! :)

I might be interested, but I have a pool and Labs like water so it might be a problem when I am gone, she might get in the pool and drown, if she can not find the stairs to climb out. My two dogs do not like getting in the pool, so they stay away from the pool. A neighbor lost their Doberman when he got in pool when they were gone.....sad.

Well, so far it seems like she is housebroken, which is good because I don't have a fence put up. I would like a dog that is more social, but it might because she was abused. I'll talk to my wife.

I'm sorry to hear about your neighbor's dog. :(

MoSpur, do you have any pets right now? I'm trying to learn more about this lab but she did have a difficult surgery and is probably still in pain. She has hardly moved around but she's in good care here.

The dog is pretty adorable.

I have no pets right now, so she would be the only one getting attention.

besides, your sheep might get jealous and hurt the dog, and that would suck.

LuvBones, you find a home for the dog yet?
LuvBones

Not quite. I have a couple interested in her, but actually the wife needs to talk to her husband about it.. so I don't know what they're going to decide yet. They're clients of ours so I hope they do take her.. if not I will bump this again later on.

About this dog, I found out her name is Brittany (I didn't name her). She's a little over a year old. She's been very good here with me. I take her to work and she doesn't bark, cry, growl.. nothing! She behaves really well. Her shyness seems to be going away each day. When I take her home she jumps right in my car, straight to her bed and stays there the rest of the night. She hasn't had an accident even once so far, so I'd say she's housebroken. If anyone is still interested message me!

Just wanted to update everyone that a fellow poster here did take Brittany. I'm glad she went to a great home! :)


EDIT: Oh and I see I just reached 2,000! That only took 3.5 years.. :p:
