My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

FINLEY fka Ricket is needing to be re-homed. With a toddler and another baby on the way, the owners stated that the toddler does not understand space and boundaries for Finley and feel it is in his best interest to be re-homed. Finley is protective of his space, gets along great with other dogs, and likes to play and run. He loves the snow and swimming! Finley loves the outside, is an active dog and is extremely smart. This boy is food motivated and easily to train, working physically and mentally! Owners have attended basic training with him. Finley is crate trained, house trained (using bells to go out), and does not bark excessively. Please help us find Finley a new home! To avoid Finley being uprooted again, please no children under 5. Finley is in New Hampshire.

Ricket came from a litter of 13 ! 5 survivors! 4 of the pups were sent to a lab rescue, but little Ricket had to stay behind because he was not healthy enough to travel. HE IS DOING GREAT NOW! This boy loves to play and knows he is loved! Estimated Date of Birth - 06/01/2017 - Weight 11.0 lbs as of 09/06/2017

Update! 11/1/17

Ricket is loving life now! He plays with three pups his age, a corgie mix, and a large breed adult now! He has picked up on the rotation very well in the yards and he knows where his kennel is for the night (he loves his food) He is very sweet and affectionate and loves the water as most labs do! Ricket is your typical friendly lab!
