Here's what the humans have to say about me:
WHITMAN--OUR "LIFE IS GOOD" PUP!!!! ****(CONTACT STACEY staceyloveslabs@gmail.com) WHITMAN IS A GORGEOUS, 2 1/2 YEAR OLD, 50 POUND, BORDER COLLIE/BLACK LABRADOR MIX!! TWO OUTSTANDING BREEDS, ONE OUTSTANDING PUP!!!. THE FIRST THING YOU WILL NOTICE WHEN YOU SEE WHITMAN IS HOW STRIKING HE TRULY IS. HIS COAT IS "HIGH GLOSS" BLACK ACCENTED WITH GLACIER WHITE HIGHLIGHTS ON HIS CHEST, PAWS AND THE TIP OF HIS NOSE. IT ACTUALLY LOOKS LIKE WHITMAN JUST PRANCED THROUGH A FLUFFY WHITE SNOW BANK AND DIPPED HIS NOSE IN THE SNOW. HIS FACE SPARKLES WITH SOME OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL EYES WE HAVE SEEN. THEY ARE A RICH, COGNAC COLOR WITH A PLAYFUL, INQUISITIVE BUT ALSO GENTLE EXPRESSION. THEY TRULY SEEM TO SHINE LIKE A MILLION STARS WHEN WHITMAN FIRST SEES YOU. THIS PUP'S MARKING ARE SO GORGEOUS HE ACTUALLY LOOKS HAND PAINTED. ALSO BEING FULL GROWN AND ONLY WEIGHING 50 POUNDS HE IS AN IDEAL SIZE PUP. WHITMAN ALSO HAS A SMOOTH. FLOWING GRACEFUL GAIT AND MOVES WITH A GREAT DEAL OF GRACE AND AGILITY. NOT ONLY A BEAUTIFUL GUY THERE IS HOWEVER A GREAT DEAL MORE TO WHITMAN THEN JUST A PRETTY FACE, ALTHOUGH HIS FACE TRULY IS PRETTY!!! THE BORDER COLLIE BREED IS ONE OF THE MOST INTELLIGENT OF BREEDS KNOWN FOR THEIR ENDURANCE AND SPEED. THEY ARE A HIGHLY VERSATILE BREED POSSESSING THE ABILITY TO CONCENTRATE ON ANY TASK AND JOB GIVEN THEM. BORDER COLLIES AND LABRADORS ARE DELIGHTFUL AND LOYAL COMPANIONS. THEY ARE BREEDS THAT ARE EAGER TO LEARN, LEARN EXTREMELY FAST AND DELIGHT IN PLEASING. THE BORDER COLLIE NEEDS A SENSE OF PURPOSE. THEY ARE DOGS THAT EXCEL IN A VARIETY OF COMPETITIVE CANINE ACTIVITIES. BEING PART BORDER COLLIE WHITMAN IS A PUP THAT WOULD FLY THROUGH OBEDIENCE TRAINING THUS COMPLETING THE PACKAGE FOR THE PUP OF A LIFETIME. WHITMAN ALSO BEING PART LAB HAS THE LAB "LIVE IS GOOD" PERSONALITY. HE HAS A GLOWING TEMPERAMENT AND DISPOSITION AS WE SAID TWO GREAT BREEDS, A GREAT PUP!!! HE IS ALSO "MR. PERSONALITY" AND NEVER MEETS A STRANGER. WHITMAN WOULD ADORE THE HUSTLE AND BUSTLE OF A "LET'S GO" FAMILY. WHITMAN'S TRUE HAPPINESS IS BEING WITH THE PEOPLE WHO LOVE HIM. WHATEVER YOUR DAY CALLS FOR IS FINE WITH WHITMAN JUST AS LONG AS HE'S IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ACTION. TALK ABOUT A GREAT WALKING OR JOGGING BUDDY, THIS PUP IS IN GREAT SHAPE AND LOVES BUT MOST OF ALL NEEDS DAILY EXERCISE. THIS HAPPY PUP WILL MATCH YOU STEP FOR STEP AND A THREE MILE WALK OR RUN WOULD BE AS THEY SAY A WALK IN THE PARK FOR OUR STAR ATHLETE. IF YOU WERE JOINED ON YOU OUTING BY A FEW FRIENDS AND THEIR DOGS, WHITMAN ADORES EVERY DOG HE MEETS ONES WHO SHARE WHITMAN'S "LET'S GO LIFE IS GOOD" ATTITUDE. (CATS HOWEVER ARE ANOTHER MATTER AND WE HAVEN'T CONVINCED WHITMAN THAT CATS DON'T WANT TO RUN AND PLAY WITH HIM SO A HOME WITHOUT CATS IS PROBABLY BEST.) AFTER SPENDING TIME WITH WHITMAN WE FEEL THAT THE PERFECT HOME FOR HIM WOULD BE WITH AN ACTIVE GUY OR GIRL, A COUPLE, OR A FAMILY WITH OLDER CHILDREN WHO ARE ON THE GO AND WANT A HAPPY "LET'S GO" COMPANION TO TAKE ALONG. WHITMAN IS NOT A CITY, CONDO OR SMALL BACK YARD KIND OF PUP. WHITMAN WOULD LOVE AN OWNER WHO HAD LAND IN A COUNTRY SETTING WITH A BIG FENCED YARD WHERE WHITMAN COULD SPEND HIS DAYS CHASING BALLS, EXPLORING, RUNNING, STRETCHING THOSE GORGEOUS LEGS JUST ENJOYING THE DAY ENJOYING LIFE. THIS POTENTIAL FOR THIS PUP IS HUGE. HE IS A TRUE "OPEN BOOK", SO SMART, AND NEEDS AN OWNER THAT IS WILLING TO TEACH, TRAIN, EXERCISE AND WATCH THIS OUTSTANDING PUP SHINE. IF THE COMPANION YOU ARE HOPING TO ADD TO YOUR LIFE IS ONE THAT IS EXTREMELY INTELLIGENT, HAPPY, ENTHUSIASTIC ABOUT EVERY DAY, BEYOND BEAUTIFUL AND A PUP WHO LIVES TO DEVOTE HIS LIFE TO THOSE HE LOVES THEN LOOK NO FURTHER WHITMAN IS YOUR GUY. ONCE WHITMAN GIVES HIS FRIENDSHIP AND LOYALTY IT IS GIVEN FOR LIFE!!!! THIS IS ONE OUTSTANDING PUP!!!!

AND WILL TRAVEL TO NEW ENGLAND ON A PET TRANSPORT WHEN ADOPTED)
