Helping Labs Find Their Fur-Ever Homes
Rocky (aka Rock Star)
Make way for the Rock Star, yeah that's me!!!  Oh, wait let me introduce
myself...just in case you don't know who I am.  My name is Rock Star, so you've
probably heard of me before.  You can call me Rocky for short, my friends do.  

So, you might be asking yourself how did a handsome, sweet guy like me wind
up in a wonderful rescue like this.  Well, it started when I was 8 months old, my
owners dropped me off at some place they call a shelter and left me there...can
you believe it?!  I had fly bites and Lyme disease...yuck!?  So, in my cage I sat until
one day this sweet elderly lady showed up and I jumped at the cage wishing she
would take me home.  She asked the attendant to take me out of the cage and to
an area where she could get to know me.  I thought we were going for a walk!!!  
So, I took off cause I LOVE walks!  Then I heard the lady call my name and at that
point I realized that she didn't have a hold of the other end of the leash...silly
human how are we supposed to go for a walk if you don't have the other end of
my leash.  Any ways, I ran back to her and sat down...she told the attendant that
she wanted to fill out the adoption paperwork right away.  

So, that's it...right...well that's what I thought.  I lived in a retirement home with my
mom.  Then one day my mom started not feeling well.  So, she wanted the best
care and treatment for me so she contacted Brookline  Labrador Retriever
Rescue.  My mom was pretty choosy who she would let me live with.  She said
that my new parents are the best couple to take care of me...and you know what
she was right!  She is sooo smart!  

Next thing I know, I end up going for a long ride and got a new home....my last
home my new mom says.  I have an awesome mom who loves me and spoiles
me.  I go to work with her at the grooming salon...only the best treatment for me!  
My dad is my bud, I love to hang out with him a lot.  When he plays his guitar, I lay
on the bed or floor and relax....I am a Rock Star after all and need a guitarist!  
Then theirs my best friend Gunner.  He is a crazy Yellow Lab who is 14 months
old...just a baby.  But he's really a big boy like me at 100lbs.  He and I are best
buds.  I took care of him when his paw had an abrasion on it, I licked it back to
health!  I look out for my not so little brother.  I also have a sister now, which is
pretty cool.  Her name is Kona and she is a Black Lab/Golden mix who is almost
14 years old.  But don't let her age fool you, cause she goes out and plays ball
with us every day.  I hope I am that fit when I get older!

I live in a house with a huge back yard!  It's like a park back there.  My mom takes
me out to play every morning and takes me for a walk.  Then I either go to work
with her or take a nap.  At lunch time dad comes home and it's time to play again!  
Did I mention that I can retrieve like no other!!!  I will jump up in the air with all four
paws off the ground and grass flying just to catch the perfectly thrown ball...it's
what I live for...well that and being a Rock Star!  In the evening I get to play and go
for walks too...how cool is that?!  I love my life....thank you Brookline!!!

Slobber and Kisses,
Rocky the Rock Star
