Here's what the humans have to say about me:
SHADOW-- "OUR COMPANION LAB--HAPPY--GENTLE--LOVING" SHADOW IS A GORGEOUS, 6 YEAR OLD, 75 POUND, LABRADOR RETRIEVER. WE RECEIVED A HEARTBREAKING CALL FROM SHADOW'S OWNER, ASKING FOR OUR HELP WHEN DUE TO THE SUDDEN DEATH OF HER HUSBAND SHE FOUND HERSELF MAKING A CALL SHE NEVER DREAMED SHE WOULD HAVE TO MAKE. CAN YOU PLEASE FIND A WONDERFUL HOME FOR SHADOW AND HIS BEST FRIEND MAGGIE(ALSO ON OUR SITE). "THEY ARE EXCEPTIONAL DOGS, MY BEST FRIENDS AND I LOVE THEM DEARLY" SHE TOLD US. THIS WAS A HEARTBREAKING DECISION FOR SHADOW AND MAGGIE HAD BEEN A PART OF THIS COUPLE'S LIFE SINCE THEY WERE WIGGLY, BOUNCY PUPPIES. AFTER MEETING SAHDOW AND MAGGIE AND SEEING WHAT OUTSTANDING PUPS THEY ARE WE KNEW THAT ANY FAMILY WHO MAKES ONE OR BOTH OF THESE PUPS A PART OF THEIR LIFE WILL BE RECEIVING A TRUE TREASURE. THE MINUTE YOU SEE SHADOW YOU CAN TELL THAT HE ALWAYS HAD THE BEST OF EVERYTHING AND RECEIVED EXCEPTIONAL CARE. THIS PUP HAS "GREAT LAB" COVERED FROM A TO Z. HE IS "THE TOTAL LAB PACKAGE" AND HAS EVERY TRAIT THAT MAKES THE LAB THE NUMBER ONE FAMILY COMPANION. SHADOW IS ONE BREATHTAKINGLY STRIKING GUY, BEAUTIFULLY BUILT POSSESSING A NOBLE, DISTINGUISHED APPEARANCE, DIGNITY, STRENGTH WITH PERFECT MUSCULAR CONFIRMATION AND BODY STRUCTURE. SHADOW HAS A SMOOTH, FLOWING GAIT AND MOVES WITH A GREAT DEAL OF GRACE AND AGILITY. HIS COAT IS A GLISTENING JET BLACK, SO SHINY IT LOOKS LIKE SHADOW JUST JUMPED OUT OF A POOL OF WATER WHICH BEING A LAB IS A STRONG POSSIBLITY. HIS EYES TELL YOU A GREAT DEAL FOR THEY ARE LARGE, A WARM, GOLDEN HONEY COLOR POSSESSING A GENTLE, KIND "LOVE ME" EXPRESSION, IN OUR OPINION IMPOSSIBLE NOT TO. SHADOW ALSO HAS THE CUTEST EARS, THEY POINT UP AND PERKY WHEN SHADOW FIRST SEES YOU OR HIS FAVORITE TREAT FOR THAT MATTER BUT WHEN YOU SAY A KIND WORD, GIVE HIM A PAT OR A HUG THOSE PERKY EARS FOLD DOWN WITH A LOOK THAT SAYS "I LOVE YOU"--ADORABLE!!! SHADOW IS SO GORGEOUS HE LOOKS LIKE HE WAS HAND PAINTED. A BEAUTIFUL GUY YES BUT THERE IS A TON MORE TO THIS GREAT PUP THEN JUST A PRETTY FACE, ALTHOUGH HIS FACE TRULY IS PRETTY!!! JUST WAIT TIL YOU MEET HIM , BOY WHAT A CHARMER. HE HAS THE LAB "LIFE IS GOOD" PERSONALITY. HE IS AN EXTREMELY HAPPY, EASY GUY WITH A GLOWING TEMPERAMENT AND DISPOSITION. SHADOW NEVER MEETS A STRANGER AND WILL PRANCE RIGHT OVER TO ANYONE HE MEETS GIVING THEM A LOOK THAT SEEMS TO BE SAYING "HI I'M SHADOW NICE TO MEET YOU". HE ALSO ENJOYS THE COMPANSHIP OF OTHER DOGS AND HIS DAYS ARE SPENT PLAYING WITH HIS BEST BUDDY MAGGIE. TO WATCH THESE TWO MAGNIFICENT PUPS ROMP, RUN AND PLAY WILL INDEED BRING A SMILE TO YOUR FACE. SHADOW IS ONE OF THOSE EASY TAKE IT AS IT COMES KIND OF PUPS. WHATEVER YOUR DAY CALLS FOR IS FINE WITH SHADOW IF HE'S WITH YOU HE'S HAPPY . YOU COULD TAKE THIS OUTSTANDING GUY ANYWHERE AND HE WOULD MAKE YOU PROUD, JUST GET USE TO BEING STARED AT WHEN FOLKS SEE SHADOW. SHADOW WOULD ADORE AN EARLY MORNING WALK OR JOG AS THIS GUY IS IN TERRIFIC SHAPE AND WILL MATCH YOU STEP FOR STEP. IF YOU HAD ERRANDS TO RUN AROUND TOWN DON'T LET SHADOW HEAR YOU JINGLE YOUR CAR KEYS UNLESS YOU PLAN ON TAKING HIM ALONG FOR HIS FAVORITE THING A CAR RIDE. HE WILL HOP RIGHT IN, FIND HIS SEAT, TURN HIS LABRADOR "BLOCK" HEAD AND GIVE YOU A LOOK THAT SEEMS TO SAY "COME ON LET'S GO". THERE IS ALSO ANOTHER PART TO THIS PUP'S PACKAGE AND IT DOESN'T TAKE LONG AFTER SPENDING ONLY A SHORT TIME WITH SHADOW TO NOTICE THIS GUY IS SMART!!!. HE IS A DOG THAT IS EAGER TO LEARN, EASY TO TEACH BUT MOST OF ALL A PUP WHO DELIGHTS IN PLEASING WHICH MAKES TRAINING A DREAM, HAVING MASTERED THE COMMANDS SIT, STAY, LEAVE IT AND BEG!!!! WHEN YOU GIVE SHADOW THE COMMAND BEG HE WILL SIT UP ON HIS BACK LEGS , BEAR STYLE, EYES TWINKLING, WAITING PATIENTLY FOR HIS FAVORITE TREAT---ADORABLE!!! THE SKY'S THE LIMIT FOR THIS EXCEPTIONAL PUP!!! AT THE END OF THE DAY WHEN SHADOW HAS PLAYED WITH MAGGIE, RUN A FEW ERRANDS, JUST SPENT THE DAY ENJOYING LIFE WHEN HE COMES INTO HIS HOME HE CONTINUES TO SHINE. WHEN YOU BUILD A FIRE AND STRETCH OUT ON THE SOFA TO READ A GOOD BOOK BETTER KEEP ONE HAND FREE, YOU WILL FEEL A THUMP AND FIND SHADOW'S BLOCK HEAD RIGHT IN YOUR LAP ASKING FOR A PAT OR A RUB, AS LONG AS YOU WIIL PAT SHADOW WILL STAY. SHADOW DOES HAVE ONE REQUEST AND THOSE GENTLE , KIND, EYES TOLD US THIS THE FIRST TIME WE SAW HIM, HE WANTS "TO BELONG". HE WANTS TO BE A PART OF A FAMILY WHO WILL SEE WHAT A TREASURE HE IS AND LOVE HIM. BEING A PART OF A FAMILY IS THE ONLY LIFE HE HAS EVER KNOWN THE LIFE HE DESERVES TO KNOW AGAIN. HE WOULD BE A DREAM COMPANION FOR A SINGLE GUY OR GIRL OR A FAMILY WITH OLDER CHILDREN WHO WOULD SPEND THE DAY PLAYING AND LOVING SHADOW. SHADOW JUST WANTS TO KNOW THAT WHEN HE CURLS UP ON HIS BIG FLUFFY BED AT NIGHT AND WHEN HE IS GIVEN A GOOD NIGHT PAT AND HE HEARS THE WORDS SHADOW "WE LOVE YOU" HE WILL LAY THAT BIG BLOCK HEAD DOWN, CLOSE THOSE BEAUTIFUL EYES, THUMP HIS OTTER TAIL AND THIS IS HIS WAY OF SAYING "I LOVE YOU TOO" AND SHADOW WILL DRIFT OFF TO SLEEP, HAPPY AND CONTENT HIS WISH HAS BEEN GRANTED HE HAS HIS FAMILY!!! HE IS ONE OUTSTANDING LAB!!!!! IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO LEARN MORE ABOUT MAKING SHADOW A PART OF YOUR LIFE PLEASE CONTACT********all4dogs@comcast.net
