Monroe

Meet Monroe, our new little ray of sunshine. Monroe is an adult aged chocolate Labrador retriever mix weighing in at exactly 70 lbs. Just look at how happy this boy is. And what a contagious smile.

Monroe has every reason to be happy. He finds himself in the fine company of a caring foster Mom as well as another dog, a senior female whom Monroe likes very much. We have been told he's been a fine boy inside thus far, and he really likes his new backyard for exploring too. He has ridden well in the car and has also liked the other dogs he has met recently. At this time we don't know how Monroe feels about cats.

There's another reason behind Monroe's smiles too. Up until several days ago he was living at a local shelter. He was far from smiling then -- bewildered that such a thing had happened to him. All that time he thought he was being a fine companion to someone.

But that person's loss is going to be someone else's gain as Monroe loves to give kisses, does well on leash, knows "sit" and really does seem like an all around happy go lucky boy.

Smokey

This is “Smokey”, a 68 pound, mature adult, neutered, Golden Retriever/Black Labrador who has a spirit heart that will enchant you!

In spite of Smokey’s neglected past, he harbors absolutely no ill will towards humans.  This incredibly friendly dog is ready for a second chance and he certainly deserves it! Smokey will need to be given a lot of very structured and always supervised introductions to what the world is all about.  He will have to be taught how to be an inside dog and what having a “home” really means.  He will need to be taken on regular leash walks and slow introductions to the sights and sounds that are waiting for him to explore.

He has been in “training” for four weeks since being rescued. He is walking well on a leash, sits on command, loves to be brushed and loves hugs!!! Ideally, he would enter a home where he is the only dog or perhaps with one other dog. The family would need to spend time daily with him in “training”and on walks; especially initially. Foster home ok too!!!!

Help us write a happy ending to this story! We need a home by 8/31…
