Hi, Yes I have the pleasure of looking after this little guy, he didnt have the best start in life but he has already forgotten about that and is loving every minute of having company and a warm place to stay.
He gets on very well with my own dog and cats and just wants to play with them all the time. He is being crate trained at night and is taking to that very well and goes straight to the back door when he needs to do his business.
He will make a great pet for a family but would advise for children above 5/6 as he is quite lively and is teething.
I got to meet this boy this evening, and he is just a stunner!
It just shows you what some T.L.C and good food does for them.
He is all Lab with fantastic chunky paws and a beautiful shiney coat and he has a true Lab disposition. He just steals your heart straight away. He even got to meet Willis, and they really loved eachother.
Well done Colin for saving this beautiful boy ![]()
Can’t wait to see what lucky family get this beauty
Hi, just another quick update on this little guy.
He has really settled in and his personality has been really coming out. He is a typical pup and loves running around chasing balls and his teddys. He plays fetch and amazingly brings it back to you and has learned basic commands like sit, stay is still a bit of a problem
He goes to the back door and gives two small barks when he needs to do his business and we let him out and when he is all done he is very happy with himself.
I would love to see him go to a home sooner rather than later as he really deserves to be able to settle in somewhere.
I am so lucky i now get to foster this beautiful boy as his other foster families dog had to have an operation.
So he came bounding in yesterday and was not at all fazed by my 3 nutters!
He was full of puppy energy yesterday but today he has really calmed. Its like having Marley from the movie in to entertain us (well except for the colour!) He is clumsy and loving and everything is a toy or food or both

He isnt destructive, he is getting there with house training but because he is so chunky you forget he is only barely 4 months.
He is a pleasure to foster xxxP1040303.JPG

I cant believe how great this boy is doing.
He is such a character, he is loving and gentle and such a lovely social boy.
His house training is really coming on, we thought he had it perfected and then he decided when the rain and wind picked up last night that it was far to dangerous for him to venture out to do his business
He sleeps all night, he isnt destructive (well unless you put something shiney in front of him, they are just fair game to all my lot!!)
But he still seems to just hold it in his mouth.
He is a real sweet boy who is a pleasure to foster.
I will post photos later, i promise.

My beautiful boy met his lovely forever family yesterday and will be heading there soon to his new big (well little cos she is small but fiesty!!) sister T.J
Great news! The very Christmas present Alvin asked Santa for! ![]()
I am so delighted for him, his new owners are so lucky to be getting such a wonderful dog. He will bring joy to everyone he meets. Good luck little guy.
