Indy is a charcoal Labrador retriever who will be four in February. He loves to chase the ball, whether it’s inside or outside and loves butt scratches more than anything. He is sweet and loving and great with our one year-old child. He has been trained with an E collar, but requires some refreshing on the training. He picks it up easily when it comes to sit, come, place, and heel commands. When he has the collar on, he is a great walker, but needs some consistency to keep up on it. He is eager to please, and quite intelligent for the most part. But he’s a lab, so he has his moments. He loves to look for bugs and will let you know if there’s a spider on the wall. He gets excited about seeing a squirrel, and loves to bark at the birds. Unfortunately, circumstances have changed and we no longer have the time or finances to give him the attention that he needs, so he is looking for a new loving home that is able to give him more than we can at this time.
