Arthur Labrador Retriever Los Alamitos, CA

Please read the dog's entire bio before you apply. Sadly, we are no longer able to respond to every application, but if your application appears to be a good match for the dog we will reach out within 3 days.
Arthur is a male 7-8 year old english yellow lab. He is 80 lbs of love and is a sweet, low key boy who loves saying hello, following you around and napping close by. He was found in pretty rough shape, with fly strike (flies chewing at his ears). He seems to have had some sort of an injury a long time ago and one of his hips was pushed out of the socket and healed that way. He has learned to deal with it and its been too long to try to fix it as he gets around fine, just has a limp. He should be on permanent joint supplements and we also started him on librella for his joints, if its successsful then that would need to be continues at his new home. Despite it all, he is very sweet, loving, gentle and an amazing dog. We know someone out there wants a dog who is happy with just a short walk around the block. He lvoes kids/dogs and his tail never stops wagging.
