"WOOF! ("MEOWS!") Happy Spring!! Let all the fun begin!"

"What fun Noah?"

"WOOF! In the spring, I usually do not have to wear my winter coat on walks, our walks are a bit longer and more often in a day, and the weather get's warmer. If it should snow, and we still could have a huge snow, it will melt pretty quickly and be done with it. Dad usually starts going to the garden center to buy mulch, bags and bags and bags of it, and pawlenty of flowers and planting mix- and I get to go for rides in the car!"

"Really cool Noah! I am enjoying watching more birds and those pesky-looking squirrels. I would love to get out in the yard and catch one! Paws, I'm not allowed outside.... so I will watch you guys from my perch in the cat tree!"

What you're favorite Spring activity?

WOOF! Like I have always said, "Black Labrador Retrievers are the bestestest dog ever! Nope, no partially on my part- I just watch out for my own! WOOF! BARKS!"

Waylon is learning to enjoy car rides. He is slowly taking to the idea that they can be fun! WOOF! 

Waylon is a snuggler, a kisser, and has the pawsome "Lab Lean" thing going on! WOOF! He enjoys snuggling with his foster's 11-year-old mini-human! He loves sunning on the back deck.

Waylon appears to not be too interested in a crate. He has been left uncrated in his foster's home for 5-6 hours and has done great! He wants an adopter who not be gone more than 5-6 hours a day! 

Waylon loves to go for walks and meeting new humans and dogs along the way. 

Waylon is gentle when taking treats from his humans! He is a pawsomely sweet fella! 

Barkingly, Waylon is approved for mini-humans ages 10 and older. He has no history with cats. He is good with other dogs! WOOF!

BARKS! BARKS! Meet my pawsome friend Footloose from Operation Paws for Homes!  He is around 1-year-old and a Labrador Retriever mix.

Footloose is a fun-loving guy who LOVES playing and having fun. He loves his toys and will entertain himself, barkingly, he loves fetching and playing with other dogs!

He is great in a crate! He goes in with a treat and stays quiet all night! He is house-trained and knows a few basic commands! Paws, he comes when his name is called and is eager to pawlease! He is still learning not to jump up when excited.

Footloose has not met a human or dog he does not like. He is being fostered with two cats and hasn't been interested in hurting them. He has been very eager in learning where the cats are! If he goes to a home with a cat, it would take time and training to stop this behavior.

Footloose is still a youngster and excitable! He will do best in a home with mini-humans ages 7 and older.

Footloose is a sweet, silly, and lovable fella who will bring years of companionship, joy, and laughter to his family!

Footloose is up-to-date with vaccinations and preventatives. He is neutered and micro-chipped.

Watch Footloose in action here: video 1, video 2, video 3, and video 4!
