Hello everyone, my name is Dekoy or affectionately called “Buddy” or “Big Guy”.  I am a black lab and black & tan coonhound mix.  Everyone that has seen me, says I am very handsome.  Along with my good looks, I behave pretty well too.  I walk well on the leash as well.

I would love to be someone’s walking or running buddy.  Don’t let my age fool you.  I am almost 6 but have energy like a 2 year old.  I am housebroken and crate trained.  My new foster family has taught me to sit & wait for my food.  I have two 4 legged foster sisters that I get along with.  We can all sit together & get our treats.  I think my foster mom just likes having our tails go across the floor, to do her sweeping. LOL!

I stay in the crate during the day.  I have just been promoted to sleeping at night on the dog bed in my foster parent’s room.  I have been very good about sleeping all night.  Well thanks for checking me out.  If you are looking for someone to give lots of labby kisses to, throw the ball and go for walks, well I’m your guy. 

Love,
Dekoy

My name is Abbey, and I am a 12 year old owner surrender. It has taken me a little while to come out of my shell and be the very sweet, happy, bouncy little girl that I really am. When I came to LEARN I had a very bad ear infection and I even had to have 5 teeth pulled. Boy did that make me feel better! One of my foster brothers, Pete, doesn’t wrinkle his nose and turn his head anymore when I go say hi to him.

My eye-sight and hearing aren’t what they used to be so you have to speak up a little bit. I also have to be careful going up and down the stairs, so please be patient with me. I love to be outside and ride very well in the car. My foster Mom has only heard me bark once and that was at another dog at the vets office, but I was just saying hi.

Being petted and scratched all over is something I have learned is really nice, and now I push my way in with my bigger foster brothers to make sure I get my share of attention.

All I am looking for is a family that wants someone to love me and talk to because I excell at those qualities. I know someone is out there just for me, so give LEARN a call and maybe you can get some sweet chocolate kisses for Valentine’s Day.

Hi Rex here,
I’m a 2 year old yellow/red (fox red) lab that came to LEARN as a stray, which I did not like being alone at all, so I am very grateful that I have a foster home to stay with.  I have 2 foster brothers and 2 foster cats that I live with; I get along with them all.  I am housebroken and allowed to have the run of the house because I am so good.  I walk nice on the leash and love going for car rides; in fact, you can just drive me around all day and I will be very happy.  I know my basic commands and listen very well.  My foster mom doesn’t understand how I became a stray because I am so good.  I love men, women, and children and more than anything I just want a family of my own. 

How about making me your Valentine?

Hi everyone,

Hi Perspective Labby lovers!   I would be Grover (Or as my Foster dad calls me Wiggles),  this is probably due to the fact that my rear end never stops waggin’ and it looks like I am wigglin’ but darn it,  I just love people!!  I am a real sweetheart of a Labby just waiting for my forever home, and I am 8 years young.  I think I have managed to steal the hearts of of my foster parents. I have settled in as a family member since I came to live in my foster digs. I am fully potty trained, and even signal my foster mom and dad every time I need to use the facilities.

I eat well, and my foster dad says he has never seen a Labby that does not live for eating like I do. I eat all my breakfasts and dinners, I do not require much.  I am in great shape and have lots of muscle.  One nice thing is I do not use that muscle to be the ”bull in a china shop”, I mind my manners very well.  I am not a counter surfer and I do not get into the garbage, which has really impressed the foster rents. This past weekend my 76 year old foster gramma came to stay with me and she took me for walks and said I was a such good dog because I did not pull on the leash when I was being walked.  Normally my foster parents let me outside (off leash I might add) and I stay right close and I have no desire to stray away. They keep telling people how trust worthy I am, why not, I know where I have it good!!!  (This Labby didn’t fall off the turnip truck after all)

I am a very devoted labby, I adjusted very well to my surroundings and when it is time to settle down, I am all about it. My foster parents sit down for a night of relaxing and I willing to do the same. I am a real cuddler for sure. Please give me a good hard look, I am probably the labby that would make your house a real home.

Thanks for giving me a read……Grover (aka Wiggles)

Tanner is a sweet, fun loving big boy looking to be loved! For a 9 month pup, who was an outside dog, he settles in very well at home. Tanner has good recall and knows very basic commands. He seems eager to learn and please and doing well on learning household rules. Tanner is good with kids, cats and other dogs with possibly a touch of Golden Retriever in him.

ADOPTION PENDING!
Let me introduce myself.  My name is Abby.  I just turned 7 years old.  I am friendly to all, love people and dogs and cats.  I love to fetch and will roll the ball to you with my nose or my foot, as well as put it in your hand if you like.  I am crate trained, housebroken and ride well in the car.  I sleep through the night and can be trusted in the house while you are gone.

I came from a single adult home.  My previous owner had a change in living arrangements, and I was no longer able to stay with her.  I was sad, but I am having fun in my foster home, and have adjusted quickly to this change in my life.

Hello Labbie Lovers!!

My name is Checkers (yeah, you read right) and I am a 3 year old black lab who is looking for my forever home. I came into LEARN when my family was moving and could not take me along. So now I am in this thing called, “foster care” and living life because I have a foster brother and sister to play with me!!

I have a blocky-like head that the vet’s office says, “looks great”…I guess that means I look handsome. I am kennel and potty trained and walk great on a leash. I don’t bother the cats at all and love going in my kennel to relax…in fact I am in my kennel now while I am typing this bio. I am looking for a home that will appreciate me and all my quirkiness. Hold on because I have to go outside and do my business (editor’s note…while Checkers was outside, his foster dad wrote this…”Checkers loves to jump up on the kitchen counter and table to grab anything he can. He also likes to relocate shoes. He does not chew on them; just move them around the house.”)

Okay…I am back J let’s see…anything else about me??? I do like to carry around toys in my mouth and de-stuff them to get to the squeaker. They are so much fun to play with!! I am on the skinny side right now, but my foster parents are working hard to put some weight on me…extra treats and more food is my current diet.

If you would like to know more about me, please give LEARN a call. I have to see what new things I can get into!!

Sincerely,
Checkers

Hi Everyone,

My name is Cooper or Mini Coop as my foster mom calls me.  I’m an approximately 8 month old lab mix that was picked up as a stray and saved by LEARN because my time was up at the shelter. 

My foster mom says I’m very sweet and a quick learner.  She’s always giving me kisses and telling me what a good boy I am.  I’m house-broken, crate trained, know some commands like sit, but I am learning how to walk correctly on a leash. 

I’m staying with 2 dogs and 2 cats and get along with all of them. I love playing tug and wrestling with my foster brothers, we also like to play chase – that’s when one of us is it and other dog chases us around the house trying to catch us. I’m very fast and hardly ever get caught. Foster mom gets mad at us sometimes because we make too much noise when we wrestle, but we give her that look and she starts laughing and lets us continue playing.

I would really like to have a home of my own, a family to love, play with, and teach me new things. Oh, I forgot to tell you I help with the laundry – I pick up any clothes that are left on the floor and run around the house with them so you know someone didn’t clean up after themselves. They learned real quick to pick up things they don’t want me to get.

If you think I would make a great member to your family please contact LEARN and let them know you’re interested in me Coop.

My name is Kate!!! I came to be a LEARN dog because I was found as a stray.  Since I had no name and am as cute a button, my foster mommy calls me Kate (or Katie).  She says I’m as pretty as the Princess Kate!  I appear to be approximately 1 year old, a purebred and am extremely shy/skittish.  Any loud noise or fast movement will send me scampering to any one of my safe zones, of which my favorite is my crate. 

My foster family lives on a farm and amazingly I do absolutely wonderful off leash, not going far outside the 30’ radius of my foster mom’s lead.  We go on multiple daily off-leash walks during which I prefer to stay right next to my foster mom, but will occasionally venture out to explore with the other dogs. I don’t mind the lawn tractor, ATV, or the vacuum, but look out if the ice-maker should drop a load of ice in the freezer.

I love the game of fetch and am slowly learning that if I drop it at my foster mom’s feet she will throw it again. Love that! I love to ride in the car, absolutely LOVE to swim, but I still have to be fed in a closed room all by myself before I will eat.

I live with two older dogs and a puppy and am very good with all them as well as any new dogs I meet.  The farm has three cats and the neighbor’s farm has 6 cats. I have never taken any interest in any of them, the chickens, or the horses.  But wow! – those neighbor bunnies are fun to chase. But my mommy said I can’t do that anymore and I’m trying really hard not to. I am hoping for a Forever Home that will help me continue to learn that the world isn’t a scary place, that enjoys some daily exercise, but not too much because I do love my naps!

Oh yeah, forgot to tell you that I am on the small side, only about 60#.
