Meet Colt- a 12 year old, male Chocolate Labrador Retriever. He joins us from the country to find his “Forever Home” noting he probably would not do well in a condo, apartment or a busy neighborhood.

Colt makes a great companion to humans! He is happy to be by your side and loves the time you take to pet him. He begins every day with furious tail-wagging and happy greetings to everyone, human or canine, and ends with a satisfied grunt as he settles in for the evening. Sounds barkingly familiar, I’d say! 

Colt walks well on a leash and enjoys a short walk- he will run around the backyard and likes to pick up the ball and play keep away with it. He loves to follow the scents of rabbits that happened to have hopped through the yard.

Colt lost his canine companion but is adjusting well! He must go home with another dog! He started taking a low dose of anti-seizure medicine after he had mini-seizures which has not stopped his will to run like the wind in the yard!!

His cat and little humans experience is unknown. He is approved for children ages 10 and up! Colt tested positive for Ehrlichia, a tickborne disease, and is being treated with antibiotics. He tested positive for Heartworms. Lab Rescue will pay for his treatment if done at one of their vets.
