Peyton was so pregnant when we came to PRBJ that we had to do a C-section on her! All of her puppies have since been adopted. Peyton does have a scars on her back, but like all of our rescues, they may have suffered from some abuse in their past. Still, that has not stopped Peyton from being the lover that she is! Peyton was adopted from us about a year ago but is not doing well living in the home with another dog. We think it would be best if Peyton can be adopted and live as the only dog in the home.
Foster Update: Peyton is very calm and submissive, and is very eager to be around other people and dogs. Her personality really shows when she gets to play with other dogs, as she attends doggy daycare every week and loves every second of the fun!! She's still learning the ideal social behavior with other dogs, but aren't they all?? She does seem to prefer the males!! She's not very interested in chewing or playing with toys, so I think a home with another dog or an owner willing to keep her enrolled in doggy daycare would be ideal. She is truly a little social butterfly and a total sweetheart. Because of her submissive nature, she has been a breeze to train.
Here are some highlights of her sweet personality:
• Submissive toward humans and very calm in new surroundings, but also very alert
• Loves children of all ages and is very gentle with them, loves to give little kisses and takes treats gently
• Participates in doggy daycare once a week at Happy Paws Pet Resort
• Seems to have suffered from an abusive past, but is not aggressive due to her fears
• Highly intelligent and learns what is expected of her very quickly -- wants to please
• Rides exceptionally well in the car and will lay down during the ride
• Not socialized with cats but does not exhibit a high prey drive, so this is certainly trainable with the right owner
• Great sleeper through the night and does not snore
• Displays no resource/food aggression whatsoever
• Allows you to look at and inspect any part of her body, lets you clean her ears or feet
• Very well behaved during bathtime
• Very well behaved while outside and does not scratch the door, dig, jump or bark excessively
Peyton's training includes:
• Sits before she is allowed anything, including being pet, going through doors, to eat, to have her leash put on, before getting in the car, going potty, etc.
• Exercises for 30 minutes (walking pace) on the treadmill daily as well as daily walks
• Loves going for walks and heels on the leash without pulling when walked properly
• Will bark to alert you of noises outside or when someone comes to the door
• Knows "Sit" "Down" and "Off" and is learning "Shake" and "Roll Over"
• Knows "No" and will listen to voice correction very well
• Will not try to steal your food if left unattended and does not beg while you eat
• Housetrained and crate trained, when she is in her crate she is quiet, calm and very patient to be let out
Like many dogs in the South, Peyton is heartworm positive, but don't let that scare you. She is a very LIGHT positive, which is treatable with monthly heartworm preventative, our preferred method. Many heartworm positive dogs go on to lead long and healthy lives. Peyton displays no physical symptoms of Heartworm and she is expected to test negative by next year.
*** 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.
