My story

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

JETHRO is a 8-year-old neutered male yellow lab. Jethro weighs 85 pounds and is up to date on shots. This dog is approved for homes with children ages 10 and up.

DESCRIPTION Jethro is an older guy who was found wandering around a country road. He did well meeting dogs of different sizes at the shelter. He is a sweetheart who is getting adjusted to his new surroundings. More on him as we get to know him. Jethro was a stray to the shelter.

Update: My expression tells my story, I'm a happy happy boy. I am good with other dogs. I'm crate and house trained and I'm a quick learner. I pick up and master my commands fast. He s a big boy yet a big baby. He s a sweet gentle soul. He likes most dogs and adores humans. He knows some basic commands. He s crate trained and house trained

Applicants must meet the following requirements:
Setting: Rural, Suburban
Dwelling: Single Family
Fence: No fence required

Jethro 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.

Adopters must travel to Maryland, or Virginia with their family - human and canine - to meet the dog they want to adopt.

Lab Rescue LRCP has between 40 - 80 dogs available for adoption from foster homes across Maryland and Virginia, and at monthly adoption events. The adoption event dates and locations are listed at www.lab-rescue.org.
