Irvin, Labrador Retriever For Adoption In Alpharetta, Georgia

Location:

Alpharetta, GA

Description:

Hi! My name is Irvin and I am about the sweetest boy there ever was. I'm a black lab mix and I weigh about 70 pounds. They think I'm 6 years old and I need to gain a few more pounds to be a healthy weight. For a while I had to hang out in this thing called a shelter, and while I was there, they had me meet all the new doggies coming in. They said I was so good I was their "temperament tester," whatever that means. All I know is I just love everyone and always want a human or a dog nearby. My foster mom says my name should be Shadow because I just follow her around everywhere. I love living inside a house! It's warm and I feel safe. I don't like that crate they make me sleep in sometimes because it reminds me of my sad time in the shelter, but I will go in if you bribe me with treats! I'll bark for a bit if I am left alone. I eventually just settle in and wait for foster mom to come back, but since I can be a bit of a loudmouth, I probably shouldn't live in an apartment. I live with some cats right now, but I'm not very interested in them and just let them do their thing. I have made some new doggie friends at my foster home and would be great with just about any dog, but I am also fine to just live with a human and no other dogs. Big bonus if I can sit on the sofa with you (but foster mom doesn't allow that and that's okay too as long as you give me lots of love). I'm pretty good on a leash, but also love a fenced in yard so I can explore. I'm learning very quickly that I always go outside to go potty. One other thing, once I became an Angel, they took me to a vet and they said I have this thing called heart worms. Gross! I am doing great so far and am the best boy about taking my medicine. The good news is you can go ahead and adopt me if you do it soon! The rescue will let me go ahead to my furever home before I get my first shot and still pay for the rest of the treatment. I'm a pretty easy patient, the only thing you have to remember during my treatment is to keep me calm, but I'm a pretty calm boy anyway!
