My story

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

Hi, my name is Reggie. I'm a 6 year old handsome black lab, my foster mom says I'm beautiful! I love people and do especially well with kids, even little ones because I don't jump on people. I've done okay with the dogs I have met but my foster mom says I'm more like an alpha dog. I don't do well with cats at all. I'm totally housebroken and know how to use a doggie door. I'm trustworthy in the house, the only things I would get into is food stuff. My foster mom says I'm an expert counter surfer, so you have to keep food put away. But I'm not destructive at all and like soft doggie toys that squeak. I'm very smart, I know "sit", "stay", "down" and will even shake your hand or give you a "high-five" if you ask me. I love to go for walks but since I tend to pull, I do much better with a head halter like a "Gentle Leader" then I don't pull. I'm very comfortable around people, even ones I have never met before. My foster mom thinks I could be trained as a therapy dog since I like being around people. I would prefer a family that is home a lot, who likes walking, hiking or swimming. I'm a little overweight from my treatment for heartworm but now that is cured and I'm back to eating and exercising properly, which will get me back to a good weight. I like to show my affection by rubbing my head up against you, I'm not into the face licking thing! I'm very gentle and loving. If you meet me, you will fall in love!
