Here's what the humans have to say about me:
COLE***CONTACT MICHELLE mmay@kylabrescue.com****COLE--HAPPY-PLAYFUL--LOVES CHILDREN!!!---COLE IS AN ADORABLE, 1 YR. OLD, BLACK LABRADOR RETRIEVER, ONE TERRIFIC FELLOW!!!. IF YOU PUT TOGETHER A WISH LIST OF EVERY TRAIT THAT YOU WOULD EVER WANT IN A COMPANION PUP CHANCES ARE IT WOULD BE COLE. THE FIRST THING THAT WILL CATCH YOUR EYE IS WHAT AN OUTSTANDING LOOKING GUY HE IS. HIS COAT IS "HIGH GLOSS" BLACK, SO SHINY IT LOOKS LIKE COLE JUST JUMPED OUT OF A BIG POOL OF WATER AND BEING A LABRADOR, THE WATER LOVIN BREED THIS IS A VERY STRONG POSSIBILITY. HIS COAT FEELS LIKE VELVET, YOU WILL WANT TO PAT AND RUB COLE ALL DAY WHICH AS MUCH AS HE LOVES AFFECTION AND ATTENTION IS JUST FINE IN HIS BOOK. HIS EYES WILL ABSOLUTELY MAKE YOU MELT. THEY ARE A WARM, RICH, CHESTNUT COLOR AND SPARKLE WITH AN ADORABLE "LOVE ME & LET'S PLAY", EXPRESSION WHEN HE SEES YOU. NOT ONLY IS COLE A BEAUTIFUL LITTLE FELLOW JUST WAIT TIL YOU MEET HIM NOW THE FUN BEGINS. HE IS OUR TRUE "LIFE IS GOOD" LAB AND ONE OF THE HAPPIEST PUPS WE HAVE SEEN. FROM THE MINUTE THOSE SPARKLING EYES POP OPEN IN THE MORNING TIL HE PLOPS ON HIS BIG FLUFFY BED AT NIGHT ALL TIRED OUT FROM A DAY OF PLAY THIS PUP IS HAPPY 24/7 AND LET'S YOU KNOW IT. EVERYDAY IS A HOLIDAY AS FAR AS COLE IS CONCERNED. THIS PEOPLE LOVING GUY ADORES EVERYONE HE MEETS, NEVER MEETS A STRANGER HE ALSO ENJOYS THE COMPANY OF OTHER DOGS JUST A PLAY BUDDY FOR COLE AND COLE LOVES TO PLAY!!!. COLE IS THE TYPE OF PUP WHO'S WORLD CENTERS AROUND HIS FAMILY. A DELIGHTFUL FAMILY COMPANION WHO ONLY WANTS TO BELONG. ANYTHING YOUR DAY CALLED FOR IS FINE WITH COLE, JUST TAKE HIM ALONG. HE WOULD BE A GREAT ADDITION TO THE LIVES OF AN ACTIVE COUPLE, SINGLE GUY OR GIRL OR A FAMILY WITH CHILDREN(COLE ADORES CHILDREN) WHO ARE WANTING A NEW BEST FRIEND. A FAMILY THAT TAKES TO THE OUTDOORS ON THE WEEKENDS HIKING, JOGGING OR OFF TO THEIR CABIN IN THE MOUNTAINS SO COLE COULD RUN, CHASE STICKS, DIVE IN THE BIGGEST SNOW BANK HE CAN FIND, EXPLORE NEW TRAILS--COLE'S PERFECT DAY!!!. THIS PUP IS IN EXCEPTIONAL SHAPE AND WOULD BE A TERRIFIC WALKING OR JOGGING, COLE LOVES TO GO FOR WALKS OR A JOG. NOT ONLY IS COLE A FUN, EXTREMELY HAPPY GUY NOW LET'S ADD SMART TO THE MIX, AND BOY IS HE. HE IS A TRUE "OPEN BOOK" READY TO LEARN AND EXCEL IN ANYTHING YOU WANT TO TEACH HIM. HE IS A PUP WHO IS ALERT, INQUISITIVE, VERY AWARE OF WHAT IS GOING ON AROUND HIM. HE FINDS ANYTHING NEW YOU INTRODUCE HIM TO INTERESTING AND A CHALLENGE. HE IS TOY AND FOOD MOTIVATED WHICH MAKES TRAINING A BREEZE. THE SKY'S THE LIMIT FOR A PUP AS SMART AS COLE. IF YOU WOULD REVIEW YOUR CHECK LIST ABOUT WHAT TRAITS YOU ARE LOOKING FOR IN A COMPANION PUP AND AFTER READING ABOUT COLE WE THINK YOU'LL AGREE THAT HE HAS EVERY TRAIT YOU HAD CHECKED ON YOU LIST. HE IS "LAB HAPPY"--ENTHUSIASTIC ABOUT EVERYDAY--A LOYAL COMPANION--PLAYFUL-- EXTREMELY SMART--LOVING AND JUST BEYOND ADORABLE. IF YOU DECIDE TO BRING THIS FAMILY COMPANION PUP INTO YOUR LIFE YOU WILL BE REWARDED EVERYDAY HE IS WITH YOU WITH TAIL WAGS, A KISS ON THE CHEEK AND A PUP WHO EVERY TIME HE SEES YOU HIS GORGEOUS EYES HAVE A LOOK THAT SEEMS TO BE SAYING "I LOVE YOU" HE DOES!!!!
