This guy ended up on my doorstep last Saturday. I live in the country and sometimes P.O.S. animal owners just drop off their dog or whatever to find a new home for whatever reason.  I cannot keep him as I've already got 3 dogs (1 pup).  No collar, tags, or any other ID.  I've called the local Vets, Humane Society, went door to door, and put out fliers with his picture.  He appears to be young around 2'ish (a guess), is lab or maybe lab/boxer mix, tail is docked, not fixed, knows sit, shake, come, chills out in a crate (goes right in), does not mess in the crate, doesn't bark, seems fine with other dogs (didn't growl or posture - has not been in direct or prolonged contact with my dogs due to not knowing if he's got something - just thru the crate and kennel walls), takes treats very gently, is a little timid (accpected) but coming around, walks ok on a leash, and just seems like too nice of a dog to go to a shelter.  Please let me know if you or someone you know would like to take this dog and make him a part of your family.   He is honestly way too nice of a dag to rot away in a shelter or be put down.  If you, or someone you know would like to take him home please drop me a message on here.

Another bump. Good luck. I deploy too much to get another.

If someone will take the dog, I will pay for his veterinary needs. I will also help pay for his travel expenses

That is very nice of you.  

I'll throw in a big bag of dog chow if someone comes to pick him up.

Bump to help this dag find a good home.

Bump... I'm in Oakland County and wish I could take him, but my current living situation won't allow for it.    Labs are such good dogs.

I can help out with a legendary arfcom relay if we need to relocate him.

Hope he finds a new home. If I could take him, I would in a heartbeat...sounds like he'd make the perfect family dog.

I'd love to take in another dog right now but just can't at the moment.  But I'll also throw my hat in the ring if another legendary Arfcom relay takes place.

As someone else that lives in the country, I despise owners like that.

I wish I had the room for him or I would take him in a heartbeat...

OP, IM sent. I might be able to take him in.

I'm heading out of town tomorrow for ten days.  If he's still there when I get back, I'll send you a PM.

I'm interested, live just down the road from you and could pick him up relatively easily.  Just bad timing right now.

I'm good for $50 for vet bill or travel expenses.

I may be a 'stupid13'r'  when it comes to the basis of this site, but dammit y'all won't be able trash my join date and lack of AR knowledge enough to do the right thing for this dag .  Not related to any posts here, of course.  What a great bunch of folks, no doubt!  Messages have been responded to and I have a strong feeling that he'll find a wonderful Arfcom home very soon.  Thank you all so much.  I'll update when I can as I'll be traveling for business tomorrow . Again, you guys are great.

My membership cash will go to this dag if he gets a new home.
Labs rock. A docked tail makes sense. My Lab Nero has a coffee table clearing tail. He nailed a friend in the nuts with that tail last week.
I mean a drop to his knees rack to the nuts.

I'll get the membership next month.

I hope the pooch gets a forever home soon .


Id take in another lab to keep my lab and his 4 friends company but just no  more room till we relocate .



And I hope the person that dumped that dog off to fend for himself gets the bad karma they deserve

Thanks to all of you who offered to take him in or to help with vet and travel costs.  He went home with his new family today. I'm sensing a lot of spoiled dag time in his foreseeable future.  Sad to see him go, but glad he found a happy home.  Thanks again Arfcom!
