Queenie is a real sweetheart! She has been living her life in great discomfort because her eyelashes are turned and grow toward her eyeballs, brushing them constantly! Ouch!!! We have had her operated on to correct the condition. Can you imagine the relief for this sweet thing? She is now ready to start her new life, free of pain, full of love! Read this great update from a foster family:
"I have been Queenie's foster Mom for the past two weeks and have seriously been thinking about adopting her. I am 65 years old and we go for long walks (she is excellent on a leash) and we go to the New Smryna Dunes (the river) where people bring their dogs to swim. Queenie loves the water, the other dogs and all people young and old and everyone loves her. BUT --- I am at the other end of the leash and as much as I don't want to give her up, it wouldn't be fair to keep her, SHE NEEDS A YOUNG FAMILY. She sees kids and adults riding bikes and she wants to run with them, she has more energy then me and as hard as I try I can't keep up with her.
She is very obedient and tries very hard to please. Anyone who can adopt her would be getting the best dog in the world, once you meet her you will be glad to take her home."



*** How familiar are you with the Labrador Retriever? 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.
