Here's what the humans have to say about me:
ABBY***CONTACT STACEY staceyloveslabs@gmail.com***ABBY--"THE TOTAL LABRADOR--BEAUTIFUL--LOVING--SMART, A WINNING COMBINATION" ****ABBY'S STORY***ABBY'S FAMILY WAS MOVING, THE ONLY THING THEY DIDN'T PLAN ON TAKING WAS ABBY!!!!!. ABBY, THE PUP WHO HAD BEEN A PART OF THIS FAMILY SINCE SHE WAS A SIX WEEK OLD BOUNCY, CHOCOLATE, FLUFF OF A PUPPY. WE RECEIVED AN URGENT CALL FROM A SHELTER VOLUNTEER LETTING US KNOW THAT ABBY'S FAMILY HAD JUST TURNED HER IN TO THE HIGH KILL SHELTER. THEY TIED ABBY TO A POLE, SIGN THE NECESSARY PAPERS GIVING HER UP AND WALKED AWAY. THE SHELTER VOLUNTEER WAS PLEADING FOR OUR HELP. SHE TOLD US THAT ABBY WAS SO SCARED AND JUST LAID IN THE CORNER OF HER CAGE TREMBLING WITH FEAR. SHE JUST DIDN'T UNDERSTAND WHERE SHE WAS AND WHY HER FAMILY LEFT HER. WE WERE ON OUR WAY WITHIN HOURS TO GET ABBY. WE WALKED OVER TO HER, SPOKE SOFTLY AND GAVE HER A PAT. SHE LIFTED THAT GORGEOUS HEAD AND HER TAIL BEGAN TO WAG EVER SO SLIGHTLY. SHE KNEW WE WERE THERE TO HELP. ABBY LEFT THE KILL SHELTER THAT DAY, TAIL WAGGING, EYES SPARKLING READY TO BEGIN HER NEW LIFE. ABBY IS A GORGEOUS, THREE YEAR OLD, 85 LB., PUREBRED CHOCOLATE LABRADOR RETRIEVER. DON'T PLAN ON KEEPING YOUR HEART WHEN YOU MEET ABBY BECAUSE WITHIN MINUTES SHE WILL STEAL IT. SHE IS "THE TOTAL LAB" AND HAS EVERY TRAIT THAT MAKES THE LABRADOR THE NUMBER ONE FAMILY COMPANION. FIRST, SHE IS BEYOND BEAUTIFUL, STARTING WITH A FLAWLESS, GLEAMING CHOCOLATE COAT WHICH IS SO SHINY IT LOOKS LIKE ABBY JUST JUMPED OUT OF A POOL OF WATER , WHICH BEING A LAB IS A STRONG POSSIBILITY. HER GORGEOUS LABRADOR HEAD IS HIGHLIGHTED WITH EYES THAT ARE A WARM, GOLDEN COLOR, KIND AND GENTLE WITH A TRUE "LOVE ME" EXPRESSION, IN OUR OPINION IT IS IMPOSSIBLE NOT TO LOVE THIS PUP!!! ABBY GIVES TRUE MEANING TO THE WORD COMPANION. SHE IS BEAUTIFUL INSIDE AND OUT WITH A LOVING, STEADFAST AND TRUSTING SPIRIT. SHE IS WHAT WE CALL A "SOFT DOG". SHE WILL COME SNUGGLE AND LEAN AS CLOSE TO YOU AS SHE CAN GET, REST THAT BEAUTIFUL HEAD IN YOUR LAP ASKING FOR A PAT OR A RUB. IF ABBY IS WITH YOU SHE'S HAPPY. HER TRUE HAPPINESS COMES FROM SPENDING HER LIFE WITH THE MOST IMPORTANT PEOPLE IN THE WORLD TO HER-- HER FAMILY!!! THIS IS THE ONLY LIFE SHE HAS EVER KNOWN, THE LIFE SHE DESERVES TO KNOW AGAIN. ABBY WOULD BE A WONDERFUL ADDITION TO THE LIVES OF A COUPLE, SINGLE GUY OR GIRL, OR A FAMILY WITH OLDER CHILDREN WHO WOULD SPEND TIME LOVING AND PLAYING WITH THIS COMPANION PUP. A FAMILY WHO WOULD TAKE THIS "TREASURE" OF A PUP AND SHARE THEIR LIFE WITH HER. ABBY IS ALSO A VERY SOCIAL GIRL AND ADORES THE COMPANY OF ALL DOGS SMALL, MEDIUM OR LARGE. SHE IMMEDIATELY MAKES THEM HER NEW BEST PLAY BUDDY. THERE IS ALSO ANOTHER PART TO THIS GREAT LAB'S PACKAGE AND IT IS APPARENT AFTER SPENDING ANY TIME WITH ABBY, THIS PUP IS SOOOOO SMART!!!!!. SHE IS A VERY ALERT GIRL ALWAYS AWEAR OF WHAT IS GOING ON AROUND HER. SHE HAS AN INQUISITIVE NATURE WANTING TO KNOW WHAT SOMETHING IS AND WHAT IT DOES. SHE LEARNS EXTREMELY FAST AND ALMOST SEEMS TO SMILE WHEN SHE DOES SOMETHING THAT PLEASES HER FAMILY. THE POTENTIAL FOR ABBY IS HUGE. WHATEVER YOU DAY CALLS FOR IS FINE WITH ABBY JUST AS LONG AS SHE'S INCLUDED. SHE WOULD BE AN EXCELLENT WALKING OR JOGGING BUDDY, SHE WALKS BEAUTIFULLY ON LEAD AND WILL MATCH YOU STEP FOR STEP. IF IT WAS A BUSY DAY SPENT RUNNING ERRANDS AROUND TOWN, JUST OPEN THE CAR DOOR AND ABBY WILL HOP RIGHT IN, IT DOESN'T MATTER TO ABBY WHERE SHE'S GOING, SHE'S WITH YOU, THAT'S ENOUGH FOR HER. IF YOU HAD A WEEKEND GET-A-WAY PLANNED TO YOUR CABIN IN THE MOUNTAINS ABBY WOULD DELIGHT IN GOING ALONG. SHE WOULD SPEND THE DAY EXPLORING TRAILS, SWIMMING IN A LAKE, JUST ENJOYING THE DAY, ENJOYING LIFE!!! YOU COULD TAKE THIS "PERFECT LADY" ANYWHERE AND SHE WOULD SHINE. AT THE END OF A DAY FILLED WITH WALKS AND ERRANDS WHEN ABBY COMES INTO HER HOME SHE CONTINUES TO SHINE, HOUSE TRAINED WITH BEAUTIFUL MANNERS. SHE IS RESPECTFUL OF HER SURROUNDINGS, KNOWING WHAT THINGS ARE HERS TO PLAY WITH AND THINGS NOT TO TOUCH. WHEN YOU SETTLE IN AND RELAX ON THE COUCH TO WATCH A MOVIE YOU WILL FIND THIS GENTLE LOVING PUP CURLED UP AT YOUR FEET. SHE WILL DOZE , CONTENT JUST BEING WITH YOU IN HER HOME!!! ABBY IS SUCH AN EASY FIT THAT HER FIRST DAY WITH YOU YOU WOULD THINK SHE HAD ALWAYS BEEN A PART OF YOUR LIFE. ABBY DOES HAVE ONE REQUEST AND HER EYES TOLD US THIS THE FIRST TIME WE SAW HER. SHE WANTS "TO BELONG". SHE ONLY WANTS TO FIND A FAMILY TO SHARE HER LIFE WITH AGAIN, TO CENTER HER LIFE AROUND SOMEONE THAT LOVES HER DEARLY. SHE IS A PUP THAT LOVES WITH EVERY FIBER OF HER BEING. HER LOVE AND DEVOTION ONCE GIVEN IS FOREVER. IF THE COMPANION YOU ARE HOPING TO ADD TO YOUR LIFE IS ONE THAT IS GENTLE--AFFECTIONATE--DEEPLY TRUSTING--HAPPY AND BEYOND BEAUTIFUL THEN LOOK NO FURTHER YOU'VE FOUND ABBY. IF YOU OPENED A DOG BOOK TO READ WHAT MAKES A GREAT LAB AND IF THERE WAS A PICTURE ATTACHED YOUR NEXT COMMENT WOULD BE "IT'S ABBY"!!! SHE IS A "TREASURE". IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO LEARN MORE ABOUT MAKING ABBY A PART OF YOUR LIFE PLEASE CONTACT******* STACEY staceyloveslabs@gmail.com (ABBY IS LOCATED IN TN. AND WILL ARRIVE IN THE NEW ENGLAND AREA ON A PET TRANSPORT WHEN ADOPTED)
