Just picked him up today from the Kentucky Labrador Rescue. www.kylabrescue.com/ 6 years old yellow lab, stands 28" at the shoulders and weighs in at 95 pounds. He's a hulk, but a pussy cat. Woman at the Rescue said she got him a month ago. Someone brought him to her after he jumped or fell out of the back of a pickup truck and the truck just kept going. Nothing hurt in the fall, he has a clean bill of health from their vet. I filled out a online application with the center Friday evening and they called me Saturday and asked if I would be interested in an older dog. I told her sure, that I even requested a dog at least 4 years old in the application. Got over there (168 miles) at 11:30 today and immediately fell in love with the big guy. Travis is housebroken, crate trained, and from what I've seen in the past couple of hours, he has a pretty good start on obdeiance training. He can sit, laydown, and heel while on a leash. I think that with a few weeks of remedial training he'll be at the head of the class.
