Molly's Happy Tail

Hi, My name is Molly,

Photobucket

I am a 2 year old yellow Labrador female. I was an owner surrender, and I got to stay at the home of foster mom Melissa while LVLR found a forever home for me. It was not long at all before I caught the eye of a former rescue Mom, Crissy. She thought I would fit perfectly into her family, so off I go to my forever home.

I am loved,

Molly

Winchester's Happy Tail

Hi, My name is Winchester (AKA Chester), and I am a 3 year old yellow lab male. I am an owner surrender. Apparently, I was trained for hunting, but I tended to be a little rough mouthed, and I would not bring the duck back in one piece. So, here I am. I get to stay with Mike and Clay, and their two wonderful labs Tucker and Barclay!

I am told that I am a great snuggler. I think I am part lap dog, not lab dog. As you can see by the picture below. I fit nicely on just about any lap, and I will even put my head on your shoulder.

My foster family was so impressed with me that they introduced me to their friends, and one fantastic family fell in love with my charm and good looks. I even have a 3 year old human sister! Isn't life wonderful?

JULY 2012 UPDATE 


From Winchester's Forever Family: We took Winchester up to our cabin in Utah for the first time this weekend. We knew he would love it, but I think we underestimated how much he would love being outside with no leashes or fences. He chased frisbees for two solid days, and fell asleep with a thud every night.

He's SUCH a good boy I'm so glad he's part of our family!

Barkley's Happy Tail

Photobucket

Hi,
I am Barkley, (AKA, Chocolate Moose). I am 15 months old. I was an owner surrender from NV. Do you think maybe my owner was not prepared for my rather large size? In spite of my size and young age, I am very gentle and calm. Don't get me wrong, I can run and when I do, my strides are very large!

Photobucket


But there are positives to my large size as well. I am built in security for the family who adopts me.

I enjoyed being picked up by my foster dad Dave, he was very patient when teaching me how to climb out of his car. My foster family provided me with plenty of exercise and love.

I attracted attention everywhere I went. It was not long before I attracted the attention of LVLR volunteers Todd and Susan. They thought I would make a great addition to their family.

I will miss my time with Mack, Vader and Jazmyn!

I am starting 2012 off with a new family and a new forever home

Love,
Barkley

Annie's Happy Tail

Photobucket

Hi,
My name is Annie and I am 11 months old. I was an owner surrender from a family in UT. I was excited to travel to NV and spend my 1st Birthday with my foster mom Melissa. She took great care of me. I even got to go to work with her. I don't know why it is called work, I got to lay around on a soft pillow and be pet by everyone who passed. A dog could get used to this!

Photobucket

I got to stay with Melissa and play with her dog Dakota for awhile before LVLR found me a forever home.
I am excited!

Love,
Annie

Bonnie's Happy Tail

Photobucket

Hi Everyone,
I am Bonnie. I am 3 years old. I was rescued from a shelter in Utah. I am so grateful to LVLR for giving me a second chance to be a good pet. Can you see my smile?

Here I am so happy to be leaving the shelter.

Once I got to NV I was taken to stay with my foster family Todd and Susan. They were very patient with me.


It was not long after that I found my forever home. What a Happy New Year this will be!

I am home!

Love,
Bonnie

Lance's Happy Tail

Photobucket

Hi,
My name is Lance and I am 1 1/2 years old. I was rescued from a shelter in UT by my rescue Angel Melinda. She knew what a wonderful pet I would be if only I was given a second chance. I stayed with Melinda for a week before arriving at LVLR.

I was lucky, after I was transported to NV, I got to stay with 2 foster families. I guess I had a few bad habits that Todd and Susan would not tolerate, so they brought out the "Big Guns" Dave and Denise. It seems they have had some experience with young guys like me. I even got a lesson from Sit Means Sit on how I should respect  my handler even when I sooooo much want to go and play with other dogs.

Photobucket

I guess I learned my lessons well, because Dave and Denise let me play with their dogs too.
Here I am with Vader. Can you tell us apart?

Photobucket

It was not long before I was adopted! And I am so lucky, my new dad is a firefighter, so he and I stay fit by taking daily runs together.

I am so happy to be home,

Love, Lance

Another Coco's Happy Tail

Hi,
My name is Coco and I am 1 years old. I am not to be confused with Marci's sister Coco. I came into the rescue after the sisters did. All 3 of us came from UT.
I was in a shelter in UT, when someone found out how lovable and valuable I was. So I got to hitch a ride to NV and stay with my foster parents Clay and Mike for a spell. They were great to me, and they had 2 labs of their own that I could play with. I am the fast one with the ball.

Photobucket

It did not take long for me to fall in love with a family that would become mine. They had even arranged for me to have a playmate, Sissy. I love the Howe Family xoxo.

Photobucket



 So, as you can see I am very happy that someone noticed my potential and saved my life.

I am home,

Love Coco
