My friend's hubby decided he didn't want to part with the dog. Thanks to lab rescue of NC, I rescued a beautiful 6 month old female black Lab from a local shelter. It breaks my heart that someone could dump a pup at the pund because they can't handle the chewing, etc. I'm hoping that once she gets used to her new surroundings, she'll make a good bird dog. If not, I'll still have a great family pet. If anybody in the Raleigh, NC area is looking to save a lab, the Johnston County Animal Shelter has this little girls sister for a few more days. Then she will be put down like so many other dogs every day. I only have room in my house for 1 new dog, so unfortunately, I had to leave the other one and hope someone gets her before it's too late.
