My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Mickey is a 6 year old spayed black female Lab. She is a very happy, friendly, and active girl. She was fine with the other dogs at the shelter who she met, including another female about her size who was bouncing and trying to jump on her to play while pictures were being taken. Mickey was very tolerant of the other female the whole time. Mickey is approved for kids 10+.

Update (9/14): Mickey is all waggy and kissy when she sees you. This girl is one of the favorites at the kennel. She's been waiting patiently to meet someone to take her home. She gets super happy when she sees other dogs and just wants to go over and meet them and play. She's met other dogs during walks and has done well, but she really gets excited, so she needs to wear an Easy Walk harness. She is a good walker and absolutely loves, loves to snuggle. See Mickey on youtube here: https://youtu.be/N0HQLZX5wkE

Update (9/4): Mickey has recovered completely from her leg surgery. This girl is so ready to get out of the kennel. She gets very excited when she meets other dog. The main thing is she can't stop wagging her tail. Mickey needs to continue working on her commands.

Update (8/17): Mickey is doing great! Her foster loves her to pieces and can't stop bragging about this cute girl! She is enjoying longer walks with her foster family.Mickey is feeling stronger every day and is ready to find her new family.

Update (7/5): Mickey is a very sweet dog who really like people. She is affectionate and loves to snuggle on the sofa and if she has a choice will sleep on the bed with you. She is house and crate trained and had the run of the house when we are home but was crated when we left to make sure she didn't hurt her knee. Mickey was being walked on the leash as requested by the vet and she does pull strongly towards birds, squirrels and other dogs.
She seems bold and would like to meet every dog she see. Note Mickey was eager to get out of the house whenever the front door is opened and should be watched until she is trained to sit and wait at doors.
Mickey is recovering from her operation and is receiving some range of motion exercises of her left knee. Her motion is good and she tolerates it pretty well. She limps some, especially when she has been on her legs for a while. At this time, the vet is recommending walks twice a day for approximately 20 minutes, no jumping, stairs limited to once per day and range of motion exercises, 20 repetitions, twice a day. She is on a Glucosamine supplement and is taking Rimadyl twice a day, with food. She may require some tramadol, short term, for pain.
She would love a home where she can run, play and chase any critters who think it's there yard.

From transporter: Mickey is a sweet, sweet girl! She is very quiet and enjoys riding in the car. (She especially likes it if she can be the co-pilot.) From vet: Mickey is in good shape. She's very friendly
