Derek-- Gorgeous

He is a gorgeous dog! 10 months old (born about 5/2008). He was an owner surrender because they just didn't have time for him. He came from a shelter in Iowa. He weighs about 75# and will put on a few more before he's full grown.

Derek is a typical lab--energetic, happy, smart, loyal and friendly. He gets along with other dogs and children. He likes to play ball. He also likes to play with cats, which some cats may not like.

He does fine in a crate and he is house trained. He is such a puppy. He would be a great jogging partner or a great companion for a very active family. He walks nicely with a training collar and does know how to SIT. He loves life and doesn't want to miss a thing! His enthusiasm for life is contagious!

Derek loves to follow you everywhere you go--he really doesn't want to miss a thing. He will lay by you when on the computer or watching TV. He is just a great dog who will be your best friend for life!
