Black Labrador Retriever male Mix - 20154/AFV3698
Intake 11/8/13 Available 11/12/13
Big beautiful, gentle boy! He came to us as a stray, so we estimate his age to be 3 yrs. old & he weighs 73 lbs. He's being super good while he's here, no fussing, no barking - just waiting here patiently and hoping for the best. Card says he is 3 yrs. old, but I believe he is older...maybe 6-7 yrs. old. He is neutered, up to date on shots, gets along well w/his kennel mate and he is available NOW

Cody was rescued after living on the streets for four years. He was then in a kennel for six straight months, and has since been at a fosters for three more months. Although he is fully vetted, neutered, house-broken, professionally trained, and socialized, he has never known a home of his own.
Cody only has two itsy-bitsy needs:
One, that his home be located within a two-hour drive of Atlanta . And Two, that he be the second, third, or fourth dog. He can't be the only dog b/c he follows the lead of another dog for his social behavior.
Cody loves to play with his foster buddies. He needs to have another dog to play with and look to for advice. He often joins in with his foster buddies to play with them. He learns from the dog he is with. He is housebroken and does really well when left alone
while his foster is at work. (He does not need a crate.)
Cody has the Akita look and is very handsome, but has none of the aggression or dominance that is sometimes associated with the breed. He does not demand affection, which is an Akita trait, but does like to get his ears and butt rubbed and know you are near. He is very laid back and calm. When confronted with a noisy nervous dog, he acts to avoid it rather than confront it.
Cody is a dream on leash. You can walk him with one finger - no pulling whatsoever. He would be great with a walker or jogger since he is in great shape and loves to walk. His foster walks him with four other dogs all at once. He also loves to lie in the sun on the deck and hang out!

Carson,CA=> Duke - 6 year old Lab needs help

Hello all,
I am reaching out for help with this sweet purebred yellow lab. His story is below but I wanted to provide a brief background of the current situation. As most of you know I specialize in helping seniors but sometimes step up to help hard to place dogs like these "bite" dogs who are not showing signs of real aggression but rather might have been acting out as any dog would depending on their situation. I was networking this boy and a woman who does independent rescue said she had a friend who would adopt Duke. She vouched for her, said she does rescue work herself and had recently lost her lab. The indie rescuer rescued the dog with the assistance of another rescue who was partnered with Carson and willing to sign the bite waiver. I paid for a weeks boarding until the adopter could come and pick up Duke and the indie rescuer facilitated the adoption. The adopter was not ideal at all, it was discovered she had 60 cats (hoarder) which of course was
too much for any dog and dumped him at vet boarding deciding immediately upon walking into her house it would not work. She contact us and said was going to take him to the shelter in Bakersfield if we didn't do something. The " indie rescuer" bailed and Victoria and I stepped up in order to keep him from being dumped again to die at a shelter in Bakersfield. I arranged for Duke to go to a board and train program and covered his costs. Duke has now been in a board and train for about 6 weeks because we have no where for him to go. The trainer needs him out, he is taking up a training slot. Duke needs a rescue who can help him find his forever home. He is highly adoptable, a beautiful yellow lab. The trainer says over and over "he is a great dog". They were never able to duplicate the bite, personally I am not sure he ever did bite. How many times do owners make up excuses when dumping dogs? The shelter never saw signs of a problem and the

The shelter never saw signs of a problem and the
trainer tried for over a month to get him to bite to no avail. His back story is below. Below is a link to a video of Duke made by the trainer. behavior assessment is attached. He really deserves a chance and right now I am not sure where to turn for help getting him into a forever home. Pete the trainer said he will discuss Duke with any rescue and will help facilitate an easy transition with an adopter. Thank you for your help.

Dukes story:
Duke is a 6 year old owner surrender that was turned in to the Carson shelter by his owners for "biting" an adult when a toy was being taken out of his mouth. A little background on Duke. His first owner kept him confined to a crate for extended periods of time and never exercised him. He was then given to another family, who thought having a backyard was sufficient exercise for a dog and never taught him any rules, boundaries or limitations. They indicated that when trying to take a toy from him he would not let go and would bite at them if they would forcibly remove it. Duke was networked by a group of us who felt he had been dealt a bad hand by his two former families. In the 10 or so days he was at the shelter, he never once exhibited any aggression towards any staff member. He was temp tested by the shelter staff prior to his neuter and he scored a B. Once Duke was out, he went to training at K9 -101 with Peter Rodrigues for 30 days. http://www.k9-101consulting.com/ Per the trainer Duke has done fantastic. He is an energetic dog that just needed training. They give and take toys and treats from Duke, with no problems at all.
