Black Labrador Retriever - Large - Young - Male - Dog - Adams Ne
Description
Ahoy! They call me Adams and the word around the water cooler (bowl) is I look plucked straight out of an ad campaign for the Salty Dog Cafe - seems those infamous T'shirts sporting their company logo and SD dog, 'Jake', casts a striking resemblance to moi. The similarities don't end there either- like Jake, I too am a survivor, and have used my wits, guile and intelligence to both endure a harrowing shelter experience and ensure my own rescue. So how did I do that? Well, it took a good bit of cunning and a whole lot of charm - traits I admire, traits others desire - which landed me the right side of the shelter door :) You see, I am a black lab mix, happily dosed with shepherd. Happily you say? Pawsitively! I am not a purebred lab, I have the look of one, been mistaken for one, and my countenance is almost there - but my body is more svelte than stocky - my lines slightly more graceful. My breed cross dictates that I will be loyal, highly intelligent, loving, enthusiastic and darn it, flat out endearing when I choose to be - the best of the canine world embodied in ME!!! I haven't let my rescuers down, in fact I think I have exceeded expectations. I rolled into my foster home, settled down nicely into a 6 pack of dogs, awaited instructions. Training began day 1 and continues to this day. I am an avid student and pick up tricks and commands with ease - corrections too! I need to be told ONCE, reminded twice (and maybe again if curiosity gets the best of me). Certain allowances have been made for my 'showboating'. I have been known to showcase my many talents... drumroll please ...including my ability to open doors, to stack treats, to layer my bedding so precisely it would make interior designers swoon and so much more! I am out to prove exactly how smart man's best friend can be, a yardstick by which all dogs could be measured and one that makes me, my foster and owner proud. In Adams' world, that's all the reward I really need. Please visit our website: atlantalabrescue.com for more information regarding our darling dogs and to download an application.
