When they first noticed the pregnant black Lab, a married couple was very concerned about how thin the mom-to-be appeared. The Lab was also very apprehensive of the couple, even tho they began to leave her bowls of food. They also provided the expecting mom a safe, comfortable place to deliver her litter of nine puppies. The couple then contacted our rescue and offered to foster the pups if we could find them homes. We gladly agreed but first had to administer the required vaccinations and de-wormings to the puppies. While the pups had a nice, safe place to stay, a medical issue arose with the woman at the home that required surgery and limited the time that the couple could interact with the puppies. Potential adopters should understand that this litter may need a little additional adjustment time once in a home.
