Hi, I'm Jake
Labrador Retriever | Adult | Male | Extra Large
About Me
Jake was rescued from a home where he was kept in a crate 20 hours a day. Jake is extremely loving and just wants to be close to his people. He can be a bit “bull in the china shop”. Noise does not bother him; he doesn’t react to storms, for example. Because he received so little exercise and freedom, Jake is now overweight. But with a family that will take him on nice long walks, he will gradually lose weight and become the svelte dog we know he can be.
If you are looking for a loving companion with a big heart, Jake is a total love bug!

NOTE: We are an all volunteer group and do not operate a shelter. All of our animals are in foster homes. If you are not local to the DMV area, but are interested in one of our adoptable pets, that's okay. If you're approved to adopt, we can work out the geography!
