Blondie is a blond Lab with a black muzzle.   She came to use along with her sister, Lola, from a kill shelter.  Both are a little scared right now, but they will be fine once they find their forever home.

 

Blondie was adopted a couple of months ago but was returned because of fearfullness with adults. I have included the desciption below from her previous owners:

 

Blondie is such a sweet girl. It took her over a week to come out of the crate on her own, even now she will only come out ot follow you if you walk away. She loves my two boys, ages 1 & #, she is very gentle and follows them around giving kisses all day. Blondie is more scared with adults, she looks down when adults pet her. She walks great on a leash, never pulls. I run a few blocks with her in the evening to get some energy out (but overall she is very calm). She was potty-traibed in 1 day. Shes great with my cats, and she usually sleeps through the night. She has chewed a couple of things in my house but i keep giving her a toy and she is much better with that now. She does not jump on people or funture.We brought blondie back due to the fact that she is "fear biting". She growls and snaps sometimes when you come up behind her. While there have been few incidences i am worried when see gets older. She has ben wonderful with my kids and in home!

 

 

 

*** According to www.dogbreedinfo.com, the Labrador Retriever is a loving, affectionate, lovable, patient dog. Once known as the "St John's Dogs," the Labrador Retriever is one of the most popular breeds in the United States. Originally from Newfoundland, Canada the Labrador was trained to jump overboard into the icy waters to haul fisherman's nets to shore. Specimens were brought to England in the 1800's by English ships coming from Labrador, where the dog's fine retrieving instincts were honed and developed. One of the best family dogs and canine companions because of their gentle, loving disposition, the highly trainable Labrador also excels in drug detection, as a guide for the blind, and service dog for the disabled. The breed is also an outstanding obedience and field trial competitor. Highly intelligent, loyal, willing, and high-spirited. Lively and good-natured, they love to play, especially in water - for they love to swim. They have an excellent, reliable, temperament and are friendly, superb with children and equable with other dogs. They crave human attention and need to feel as though they are part of the family. Labs are easily trained. These dogs are watchdogs, not guard dogs, although some have been known to guard. They have a life expectancy of 10-12 years.
