Zuko
1 year old neutered chocolate male, 68 lbs
Zuko is a sweet, playful boy with lots of energy. He was surrendered because his owner was no longer able to afford to have a dog and she was moving. Zuko is completely house trained and currently sleeps in a crate at night, sleeping through the night. He came to us with eye, ear and skin infections, but they’re all doing much better now. His coat will look fabulous in another month. He makes great eye contact and adores his people. Zuko loves to eat and has a gentle mouth. He will wait for the “ok” before eating. Zuko loves riding in the car and rides beautifully. He’s happy to wait in the car alone while you run in for a short errand, tho he may bark a bit. Zuko doesn’t bark at small dogs, but likes to bark at everything else…people, bikes, odd noises. He wasn’t taken out much in his previous home so everything is new to him. He’ll get much better as he gets used to the big world. He’s just “talkative.” He loves his walks tho and doesn’t pull on a leash. He knows sit and down, and comes when called. He’s never been around water so we’re not sure how he’ll do with that, but it will be fun to see. He’s athletic but has no interest in retrieving. He really likes playing with toys and having a toy in his mouth. Zuko has never been around children and we think he’ll be fine with them, but older kids would be best. Zuko doesn’t jump up. He is shy with other dogs and a bit unsure (tho he lived with another lab…his brother Bucky….who we’ve already placed). We think he’d be fine with another dog or as an only dog. He’s ok with cats. The best thing about Zuko is his adoration of his people. He loves his fosters and always wants to be touching them, putting his head on their feet or snuggling with them on the couch. He’s definitely a couch dog and we will insist that be allowed in his new home. He’s truly a velcro dog. As always, we want Zuko to go to a home where someone is around most of the time. He’s a really good boy who needs a family that will help him be comfortable in this new big world. He’ll reward them with total devotion.

Zoey
11 week old chocolate female puppy, 12.4 lbs
Zoey and her sister Ellie are darling little girls who were the last of their litter. Mom was a chocolate lab and Dad was a black lab. Zoey is the bigger of the two and has gorgeous hazel eyes and is a bit chunkier. Both puppies are reasonably calm for puppies this age, tho they love to play. They are still working on their housebreaking skills and have a way to go. They are fine in a crate at night in the foster’s room, tho there is a little complaining when they’re put in it. They love toys and love playing tug of war. Chew toys are huge favorites. The girls are not terribly bitey, tho they have their moments. They will chase after a ball, but it’s too early for them to get the concept of retrieving. They like to play in their water bowl, so will probably be water dogs. They travel very well in a crate in the car. They’re pretty quiet little girls. They make great eye contact and pay close attention when spoken to, so they’ll be easy to train. And, of course, they love attention and affection. They’re very happy being held. They would love a dog buddy in their new family but we will consider adopting them as only dogs as well. They really like the foster’s kids and we think they’d be fine with kids age 6 or older. As always, we want someone to be home with them most of the time. They’re super cute puppies and will be a great addition to their lucky families.
If you’re interested in the puppies, please call or text Judy @ (831)261-3409.
Ellie
11 week old black female lab puppy, 10.4 lbs
Ellie and her sister Zoey are darling little girls who were the last of their litter. Mom was a chocolate lab and Dad was a black lab. Ellie is the smaller of the two with petite features. Her beautiful dark eyes speak to you. Both puppies are reasonably calm for puppies this age, tho they love to play. They are still working on their housebreaking skills and have a way to go. They are fine in a crate at night in the foster’s room, tho there is a little complaining when they’re put in it. They love toys and love playing tug of war. Chew toys are huge favorites.

Nova
7 year old neutered male lab/golden mix, 88 lbs
Nova is a super sweet, happy guy who’s easy to have around. He was adopted and needed to be returned to us through no fault of his own. Nova was originally surrendered to MBLRR because his family was moving to overseas and couldn’t take him. Nova is a handsome boy with the softest, most lush coat you’ve ever felt. He’s completely house trained and has excellent house manners. If he’s left alone in the house, he will counter surf (looking for something to do), so counters need to be clear. Nova sleeps on a dog bed next to the foster’s bed or just on the floor. He wants to be close to his people. Nova knows all the basic commands and is good on the leash. Sometimes he pulls a bit, but if you tell him not to, he completely listens. He loves his walks and is easy to walk. Nova is great in the car and loves car rides. He’s never been to the water, so not sure how he’d do with that, but he doesn’t seem like a swimmer. He isn’t interested in retrieving either. Nova loves people and adores affection and attention. He’ll sit right next to you and just soak up the pets. He knows not to jump up but sometimes in his enthusiasm, he tries. So he wouldn’t be good around really young children or unsteady adults. He is an alarm barker but otherwise doesn’t bark much at all. He’s good with other dogs, energetic and playful. He hasn’t been around cats, so a cat free home is best. Nova is great with kids and loves them. He would be great with kids age 7 or older. As always, Nova needs to go to a home where someone is around most of the time. He’s a wonderful companion and he really enjoys life.
