Dozer's Story

My name is Dozer. Let's start off with some facts. I am a Lab (clearly). I am a stunning large boy. I weigh about 123 lbs (I've already lost 10!). I am 7 years young. I am housebroken. I don't need a crate. And, nope - I don't chew anything I shouldn't chew. I ended up in the rescue because my owner passed away. I know they loved me but I probably haven't been able to do all the things I have wanted to do in my life due to my situaiton. I am full of potential. 7 is not old and believe me, I do not think I am old! I have about 20ish lbs to lose to get healthy and fit and close to my optimal weight. I can't lose this weight just sitting around like a lump and that's also not what I want to do at all. I have some stamina! In my foster home, I spend the day keeping up with my adolescent dog friends and following my people around. In my next home, I would love a person or family to maximize all my labby qualities. This may include (and probably should include), strolls and walks, hikes (let's build up to the more complex hikes), visits with new people, dogs, friends, kids! I can also live with dogs, friends and kids! Oh and water... I LOVE water and I can swim with the best of them. If you have access to a body of water or like to visit places where I can splash around, you might have leg up! A single family home with a nice yard is desired for me. I do have a big bark... again, I am a big guy. I am super affectionate too - I think I am a lap dog sometimes and a big teddy bear! I am located in NJ and loving the snow!
