We will also vaccinate each dog, should this be necessary. We also recommend you microchip your dogs. On a daily basis we deal with dogs that are lost and despite our best efforts we cannot locate their owners. It is heartbreaking. We are able to offer the services of an Animal Behaviour Practitioner should you need help with the rehoming of a dog. Ruth Bots B.A. Cert. Ed.

Alternatively, to donate R to Lab Rescue SMS labbie to Please consider homing a middle aged dog Bear in mind that Labrador Retriever s have a life span of years. An 8 or 9 year old Labrador is not an ancient dog. It would still have a good 4-5 years, if exercised and fed correctly. Also an older dog has done it s gardening days has stopped chewing (hopefully), has matured, is not as boisterous as a puppy and is possibly a better choice for very young children as it has patience and will not knock littlies flying or nip while playing. Most dogs this age have had some sort of training so are a lot more controllable. Thank you for considering homing a Labrador.
