Here's what the humans have to say about me:
HENNESSEY***CONTACT MICHELLE mmay@kylabrescue.com HENNESSEY--WOW!!! ONE "DROP DEAD GORGEOUS" FELLOW!! WE RECEIVED A CALL FROM THE DIRECTOR OF A HIGH KILL SHELTER IN THE SOUTH LETTING US KNOW THAT ONE OF THE MOST GORGEOUS LABS SHE HAD SEEN WAS IN HER SHELTER. THE PUP SHE NAMED HENNESSEY WAS FOUND WEARING A BEAUTIFUL COLLAR BUT THERE WAS NO TAG AND AS THE SHELTER FOUND NO MICRO-CHIP. THE SHELTER DIRECTOR JUST FELT SURE HENNESSEY'S OWNER WOULD COME FOR HIM, SHE CALLED THE LOCAL VETS, POSTED FLIERS, ADDED HIM TO THE SHELTER'S FACEBOOK PAGE BUT AFTER A WEEK NO ONE HAD COME FORWARD AND WE RECEIVED THE CALL. "THIS PUP HAS TO BE ONE OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL PUPS EVER. HE IS BEYOND GORGEOUS, SO KIND AND GENTLE, HE DOESN'T BELONG HERE" CAN YOU HELP HIM? WAS HER PLEA TO US. THE MINUTE WE SAW THE PICTURES OF THE HENNESSEY WE COULDN'T GET TO HIM FAST ENOUGH. HENNESSEY LEFT THE KILL SHELTER THAT DAY, HIS OTTER TAIL WAGGING, EYES SPARKLING, ALL READY TO BEGIN HIS NEW LIFE. HENNESSEY IS A BREATHTAKINGLY BEAUTIFUL, 18 MO. OLD, 65 LB. CHOCOLATE LABRADOR RETRIEVER MIX, WE'RE NOT SURE WHAT OTHER BREED HENNESSEY IS A COMBINATION OF ALL WE KNOW IS THERE SHOULD BE MORE OF THEM. WHEN YOU FIRST SEE HENNESSEY HE WILL STOP YOU IN YOUR TRACKS HE IS SO GORGEOUS. HE POSSESSES A REGAL, DISTINGUISHED AND NOBLE APPEARANCE BUT UNDER THAT REGAL DIGNIFIED POSE AND SERIOUS EXPRESSION IS ONE GENTLE, LOVING, "ALL AMERICAN LAB". HE IS A PERFECTLY PROPORTIONED FELLOW WITH THE CLASSIC "BLOCK" LABRADOR HEAD AND GRAND MUSCULAR CONFIRMATION. HE HAS A SMOOTH, FLOWING GAIT, REFINED AND ELEGANT, MOVING WITH A GREAT DEAL OF GRACE AND AGILITY. HE TRULY IS BEAUTIFUL TO WATCH. HIS COAT IS FLAWLESS A WARM RICH CHOCOLATE COLOR WHICH LOOKS LIKE HENNESSEY WAS DIPPED IN A BIG BOWL OF CHOCOLATE ICE CREAM. HIS GORGEOUS "BLOCK" LAB HEAD IS HIGHLIGHTED WITH THE MOST BEAUTIFUL EYES, THEY ARE LARGE, A PALE GOLDEN COLOR, THEY WILL ABSOLUTELY MAKE YOU MELT. ONCE YOU MEET HENNESSEY YOU WILL REALIZE THAT BEING BEAUTIFUL IS ONLY THE START TO THIS GREAT PUP'S PACKAGE. HE IS SO MUCH MORE THEN JUST A PRETTY FACE BUT WE HAVE TO ADMIT THIS PUP IS "PRETTY". HENNESSEY IS THE QUINTESSENTIAL COMPANION LAB. HE HAS THE LABRADOR GLOWING TEMPERAMENT AND DISPOSITION, TRAITS WHICH HAVE ENDEARED THE LABRADOR BREED TO FAMILIES FOR GENERATIONS. HE IS A PUP WHO IS LOYAL AND DEDICATED TO THOSE HE LOVES. HIS TRUE HAPPINESS COMES FROM BELONGING. HE IS A PUP WHO'S FIRST DAY WITH YOU YOU WOULD THINK HE HAD ALWAYS BEEN A PART OF YOUR LIFE. YOU COULD TAKE HENNESSEY ANYWHERE AND HE WOULD MAKE YOU PROUD, JUST GET USE TO BEING STARED AT WHEN FOLKS SEE HIM, HE IS A SHOW STOPPER!!! WHATEVER YOUR DAY CALLS FOR IS FINE WITH HENNESSEY JUST AS LONG AS HE GETS TO GO. HE IS ONE "LOVING LIFE" LAB. HE WOULD FIT INTO ANY FAMILIES LIFE STYLE AS HE IS THE ULTIMATE COMPANION. IF YOUR DAY STARTED WITH AN EARLY MORNING WALK OR JOG, HENNESSEY WILL BEAT YOU TO THE DOOR AND IF HE COULD FIGURE OUT HOW TO PUT HIS LEAD ON WE BET HE WOULD. HE IS FLAWLESS ON LEAD, A PUP WHO WILL MATCH YOU STEP FOR STEP. HE WOULD ADORE A TRIP TO THE PARK THIS "MR. SOCIAL" GUY LOVES OTHER DOGS JUST A CHANCE TO MEET A NEW BUDDY TO PLAY WITH. IF YOUR WEEKEND CALLED FOR A GET AWAY TO YOUR CABIN IN THE MOUNTAINS, JUST OPEN YOUR CAR DOOR AND IN HENNESSEY WILL HOP, GRAB A FEW TREATS, SOME TENNIS BALLS, NOW TAKE OFF. HENNESSEY WILL SPEND THE DAY EXPLORING NEW TRAILS, CHASING ANY STICK YOU THREW HIM, DIVING IN THE BIGGEST FLUFFY SNOW BANK HE COULD FIND, JUST ENJOYING THE DAY, ENJOYING LIFE. HENNESSEY IS ALSO AN EXTREMELY BRIGHT GUY, ALERT AND A PUP THAT IS EAGER TO LEARN, EASY TO TEACH, DELIGHTS IN PLEASING. HE FINDS ANYTHING NEW YOU INTRODUCE HIM TO INTERESTING AND A CHALLENGE. HE IS A LAB THAT IS VERY IN-TUNE TO HIS OWNER ALWAYS WATCHING AND LISTENING FOR ANY COMMAND YOU MIGHT GIVE HIM. THE SKY'S THE LIMIT FOR THIS GREAT LAB. AT DAY'S END WHEN HENNESSEY COMES INTO HIS HOME, HE CONTINUES TO SHINE. DON'T BE SURPRISED WHEN YOU SETTLE IN YOUR EASY CHAIR TO READ A GOOD BOOK OR WATCH A MOVIE THERE WILL BE A BEAUTIFUL CHOCOLATE LAB CURLED UP AT YOUR FEET. HE IS HAPPY AND CONTENT BEING WITH THE PEOPLE HE LOVES MOST IN THE WORLD, HIS FAMILY. HENNESSEY TRULY HAS "GREAT LAB" COVERED FROM A TO Z. HE IS THE "TOTAL LAB", GREAT TEMPERAMENT--HAPPY--LOVING--SMART AND OH YES "DROP DEAD GORGEOUS". WE FEEL THAT AFTER SPENDING TIME WITH HENNESSEY HE WOULD BE A GREAT FIT FOR A SINGLE GUY OR GIRL OR A FAMILY WITH OLDER CHILDREN, AN OWNER WHO IS LOOKING FOR A "BEST FRIEND".
