| Brookline Labrador Retriever Rescue Helping Labs Find Their Fur-Ever Homes |
We’ve had many successful placements of Silver Muzzle Labs into loving homes, including:
Queen, a 10-year old girl who had a tough life living in the backyard of an unscrupulous breeder who
continuously bred her until she was 9 years old. Dave and Ellen, her adoptive parents, said, “The moral
of our happy story is if you're thinking of adopting a senior dog, go for it. It is so rewarding.”
Honey, an 11-year old girl who initially had some problems settling into her new home. However, her
family was willing to work with a Brookline volunteer to acclimate Honey into their household. Her
adopting family shared this comment with us: “Brookline knows their Labs because after about three
weeks, everything fell into place and we are dippy over this dog…. I encourage everyone to give these
older dogs a chance.”
Sparky, who came into the rescue as a 9-year old and spent some quality time in a great Brookline
foster home until a very nice woman, who was looking for a companion for her older Lab, became
interested in Sparky. There has been no looking back since then.
Maddy, who was fortunate to find a loving Mom and Dad to make her a part of their family, even though
some people would think she was too old at the age of 9. As her new family can tell you, older dogs
don't need all that "puppy training" because they usually know their manners.
Cheyenne, who at 9 years young had been relegated to her owner’s basement for a few years and then
dumped at the pound when the owner decided that he no longer wanted her. Even though she’s a little
older, her new Mom & Dad decided to take a chance, adopt her and make her part of their family.
Cheyenne has lots of love and affection to give and gets lots of love and affection in return!
Blue, who at 10 years old was adopted by two of our volunteers who unfortunately had only 10 wonderful,
but short, months with him. They met Blue at Brookline’s Paws Walk last year. “He put his left paw on
my shoulder & quietly whispered in my right ear, "I'm your dog, take me home with you."
"Blessed is the person who has earned the love of an old dog."
