From the Foster Family: Laddie and his sister were found as strays and spent months at a women’s home confined to a kennel together. When Laddie first got to MN he was very afraid and hid outside for the first few days. I can now pet him and take him for walks, and bring him to the backyard, and he comes in when called. He wants to have people pet him, but is shy with new people. He plays well with other dogs. He has been in my house with 7 other dogs, and one was a 3-month-old puppy, and he did well with them. He loves to hang out in his kennel. He will need a patient home where he can get used to the new surroundings and feel comfortable. On our walks, he displays a good nose for scents and loves seeing the birds in the field. He is on the smaller side for a Lab and will be a very nice dog given some time.
About Me: I can’t believe how long that drive was to MN. I am really happy to be here, even though at first I seemed very scared. I’ve had a lot of things happen to me in my first year of life. I am looking for a family that will take time with me and show me what a dog is supposed to do. HASRA saved myself my sister and me from living in that kennel for months on Christmas Day. What a relief that was. Now I am in MN and determined to find that family that will bring the best out of me. Please think about filling out an application, and let's meet! Thanks Laddie
