Brandie the Puppy's brother, Scotch the Puppy (adopted) can also be seen on our website.
Description: Brandie and her brother Scotch are two lucky little puppies (Michelle must have named them on a Friday after long week....). They were dumped off in the country by someone who obviously didn't give a hoot about them. Fortunately, these two pumpkins were found by a wonderful gentleman who, as the owner of nine dogs, knew all about dogs and had a heart for them. He took them to his vet for check ups and shots and then contacted Judy to ask her to find them homes. He even gave Judy a donation to cover the cost of their care while with us! People like him are few and far between, let me tell you!!!
Brandie and Scotch are everything you would expect in lab puppies ~ energetic, fun, playful and full of beans! The one thing I'll tell you about labs is that when you adopt one, you have a puppy for life! Oh, and check our our webpage, "Potty Training Your Puppy" ~ you may need it!
*** 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.
