Story

Summer is a 4 year old female Labradoodle. No papers she was given to us by a breeder that is friend of the family. She has had her rabies and distemper shots this past February. House broken and kennel trained. She would be great on the farm as it has been for the first three and a half years. We just move to the city. Not spayed. We do have cats and another dog she does well with. Not goog around chickens if free ranging. Hasn't killed any just chases them, so far. BIG NOTE: Shoe does shed alot, so brushing and sweeping happens alot. She will come with her cage as she still even naps in it sometimes during the day.
