Egypt & C.L. (that's creative for Chocolate Lab)



This morning I did my rounds with PJ and we came across the same group of dogs we have seen lately. It is a new pack that consists of a puppy named Egypt, a chocolate Lab, Pit Bull and a few other dogs. I have been meaning to send out a plea for Egypt, and then this morning the Pit Bull, although just playing, got a little rough with the puppy. Rough enough for me to say, that's it! I'm taking that puppy. I was just scared that I would show up next week and the pup would be hurt. That being said, Egypt is at the vet right now being checked out. She is in pretty good shape. One of the neighborhood ladies was taking care of her. She really wanted us to rescue her though. I have parvo at my house, so am unable to foster her. Please take a look at her sweet, sweet face and give her a place to stay until she finds her forever home. She is totally laid back. Jumped right in my arms and relaxed in the passenger seat the entire ride to the vet. Such a great temperament. I think she will be easy to house train too. She looks to be about 3 months or so. Maybe even a little older. Please help me out with this one. I will keep her in my bathroom until we find a place for her, but she is not going to be very happy with that. I have a feeling she will wonder if that was really "rescuing" her if we have to keep her in the bathroom.



On another note, there is also a pure bred chocolate lab that is too sweet for words in this pack. He is a little shy, but is coming around quite nicely with PJ. He took a treat from her today. He seems to show up with some injuries every once in a while, which worries us because he does not seem like much of a fighter. Does anyone know anyone looking for a chocolate lab? Or would anyone be interested in fostering this sweetie? We would love to get him off of the streets.

hi there, CL is now in his happy home. He has a great big brother that looks exactly like him. I will post pictures of the two of them soon. Thanks for inquiring about him. He is a sweetheart!

hi - do you still see the Choc lab? We have a lab that would love a friend and would foster, possible permanent home.

sounds like C.L. has a home :). We would be delighted to foster a lab/mix.

Hi, just wanted to say that Egypt, now known as Roxy, is very happy in her forever home. She has brought such happiness to our house and we all just love her. She is absolutely spoiled and lovin every minute of it! She loves having kids to play with and loves to just cuddle with all of us.
