The following dogs have found forever homes!
Miles
Miles is a young male (a year old on 11/8/09) who was surrendered to an Iowa shelter at 4-5 months of age and remained there until Rescue heard about him. He was in FCRSA foster care for a few months while we found the perfect family for him and his foster families reported that he LOVES kids and is a "people dog extraordinaire"! Miles is now in his forever home in Virginia, happily spending time with his new family and a Flat-Coat brother.
Ben
Hello! My name is Ben, and I am a Flat-Coated Retriever puppy. My foster family thinks that I am about 9-10 months old. I am still at that awkward stage, where my body is larger than my head and feet, and I’m not sure how everything fits together. I weigh about 70 pounds now, and I will probably weigh between 75-80 when I finish growing.
I was in the shelter, but I have been with my foster family for a little over a month, and I am now energetic and friendly. I have put on weight, and I am growing up fast. I have learned to go outside to use the bathroom, to come when called, to walk on lead, to go into a crate, and to sit and wait my turn for biscuits. I like to chew on bones and toys, play with my foster brothers and sister and follow my foster people. I help in the kitchen, I supervise all household chores, and I’m especially good at holding down the floor at naptime.
Ben's foster parents decided they couldn't let him go so he will be staying with them!
Teddy
Here is a picture of Teddy a neutered six year FCR boy returned because his owners can no longer provide for him. The dog has received obedience training and walks beautifully in heel position with a buckled collar. He would make someone who enjoys obedience work a fun partner. Teddy went to Petsmart to see how he would react to other dogs and people. We were happy to see a wagging tail and willingness to interact with friendly canines and their owners.
LuLu
LuLu is an 18 mo. old (DOB 3/18/08) very sweet girl. Her current owner got her last Fall when LuLu's original owner passed away. Current owner reports that Lulu is very eager to please, loves loves loves everybody and will lick anyone who'll let her. LuLu has been exposed to cats, is fine with children, loves going for car rides (especially to the local dog park!), knows basic obedience commands and is housebroken (can be left alone for 8-10 hours at a time).
