Here's what the humans have to say about me:
CHOCOLATE is a 4 year old neutered chocolate male Lab who weighs 65 pounds Chocolate is a handsome and friendly guy that is looking for a new forever family. He ended up in the shelter after his owner passed away. Chocolate needs a home with a fenced-in yard where he can explore. He is good with other dogs. He is approved for kids 10+. More info soon!
Update: Chocolate is happy to be in his foster home. His foster mom reports that he's very sweet. He doesn't give many kisses, but when he does he's very polite about it. Chocolate likes to be petted and will come sit on you or lean on you for attention. He has shown a little too much interest in the resident cat so he should go to a home without cats. He sleeps all night on his dog bed like a good boy! (Also really likes to sleep on the cat bed!!!) Chocolate has been playing with squeaky toys and a chewy.
Adopters must meet these requirements:
Setting: Rural, Suburban
Dwelling: Single Family Home
Fencing: Physical fence required.
This dog is from a rural area and has not been exposed to traffic, noise, or groups of people. If dogs are overwhelmed by their environment, they can exhibit behaviors like excessive barking. To avoid this, for now we are limiting placement to stand alone single family homes in a suburban neighborhood or rural area. As we learn more from the dog's time spent in foster, we will evaluate if placement can be expanded to include a more urban environment and send out an update.
This dog is available for adoption from Lab Rescue LRCP. Lab Rescue LRCP rescues and places dogs in Maryland, Virginia, Washington DC, West Virginia, Pennsylvania, Delaware and northeast North Carolina (30 miles east of I-95 and north of the Pamlico Sound) Adopters must travel to Maryland, Virginia or Washington DC with their family - human and canine - to meet the dog they want to adopt.
Lab Rescue LRCP has between 50 - 80 dogs available for adoption from foster homes across Maryland and Virginia and at monthly adoption events. The adoption event dates are listed at www.lab-rescue.org.
If you are interested in adopting, please visit www.lab-rescue.org and complete an adoption application. Within a few days of submitting an application you will hear from an Adoption Coordinator who will guide you through the adoption process.
An adoption fee is charged to cover the cost of veterinary care and a home visit is required.
