I'm picking him up Friday

c0_re · 01-22-2007, 12:06 PM

I've spoken for him already and baring any major issues apon arrival he's comming home with me on friday, he's in the Humane socienty just 30 miles north of here.

7th month old Chocolate lab X any thoughts on what he's crossed with?

I'm told the picture is current and they don't think he'll get much bigger(50-60lbs)

Any thoughts or things(physical) I should look out for before taking him home, they say he's perfectly healthy(as far as they know) is fixed and has all his shots.

picture fixed(Thanks Global Paw!)

Woudn't have a guess as to what he's crossed with. He's a handsome boy. Congratulations. What's his name?

c0_re · 01-22-2007, 01:21 PM

Thank You, his name is Harley

I'm hoping he true to his lab roots I live a 100 feet from a river on an old deserted road where he could swim and play to his hearts extent.

CONGRATS!!! You'll have to take more photo's of him when he's home!

Also, the picture isn't the greatest so it's hard to tell what he may be mixed with. Labs can sometimes have white markings on their chest, too.

Most lab mixes I have come across seem to have that lab attitude where they love to play non stop and play with any amount of water they can find!

He's such a cutie!

Really I thought all labs had to be 100% solid color, thats neat thanks. I like the little white patch to be honest

IceyBlueSibes · 01-22-2007, 05:33 PM

The standard doesn't allow it, but there are those few that tend to have either small patches, or much larger areas with white. I don't remember who it was, but one of the members here posted a really great website about markings and colors in the labrador. I'll have to look and see if I can find it. Or if that member happens to read this and knows that I'm talking about

I like the little white patch too. It makes him unique

***Rivsky*** · 01-22-2007, 06:02 PM

Wow he's gorgeous! At first glance I thought I was looking at a picture of a kelpie but then realised he's too stocky for that!

I know I'm in love with him already and I havn't even seen him in person but have talked at length with the supervisor about his behavior, she warned me up front he needs to learn some manners. Can't wait to get the poor little guy off of puppychow, out of a cage andn runnin. I'm glad I can't afford any more or else I'd be in real trouble.

Congrats! He is wonderful!
