This is Moose, a 1 year old chocolate lab with enough energy to power a paper mill. His first owner (a friend of mine) got him as a puppy, but as he got older it was apparent that he was not a good fit. We took him in thinking we’d be able to provide a more stimulating environment and trying to keep him out of a shelter, but unfortunately it’s still not enough.
He is so incredibly sweet and good with kids, my small toddlers and baby. He is EXTREMELY high energy - if there are other dogs in the home, he will need a job (shed hunting, mushroom picking, etc. Just something to stimulate his crazy brain) but I believe if he was the only dog, simple trick training and daily exercise would be enough. I love this dog, as does my son, who nicknamed him Moo Moo, but as a stay-at-home mom with 2 other dogs, 3 kids under 2, and my partner working out of state for the winter, I do not have the time that he requires. He deserves a much more stimulating environment and someone that knows how to and IS ABLE to provide it.
If you’re interested, please message me and we can discuss details. I’m very firm in making sure the right person is found for him that has the ability and resources to care for him in the ways that he needs. He will come with his kennel, a food bowl, harness, leash, collar, all his favorite toys, and lots of love to give!
