I'll have an ask around for you. I know the lady that runs North West Lab rescue and she is excellant so I'll see if she's got anyone on her books right now.

Is he working stock, and would you mind him going to a working home? I've got someone after a working lab, he might be a tad too old for him but I'll give him a ring and ask. I would prefer to get him castrated before rehoming via our rescue as we don't allow them out unless done (except for very oldies or medical reasons of course!). Would you have a problem with that?

Transport can be arranged from you, that's not a major problem...just moved a dog from here (North Wales) to Newquay last weekend so Scotland is practically next door!!

Can't promise anything but I'll give it go, we're up to our eyes at the moment trying to rehome older dogs so I can't say how sucessful I'll be.

Sorry just to ask is it him that is causing the problems at home or other dogs? Would you say he can be rehomed with other males/females or prefer a single dog home? Please be honest it's not a problem but I like to know if the dog isn't dog friendly before trying to find homes, makes life alot easier.

Sounds brilliant! I dont mind him being castrated! he is not a working dog at present but i can imagine him being brilliant at it, he has a lot of energy and working would be great for him, i would love him to be a working dog!

Thanks for you help

Thomas is friendly with other dogs, would notsay he is the problem just that he is dominant and so is teddy and they clash, he is great with females and also non dominant other males, gentle with children too

Have to say thomas has a show background, he wears the banchory mark of a champion bolo pad. can he take his pedigree and kc papers with him, for the new owner might want to register him as theres!

He sounds a treasure!! Good job I'm full at my house!! Although my mother is always on the look out for another lab (she has a black and choccy already) so might drop the hint!!

We usually don't rehome the dogs with papers even on the rare time we get them, I prefer to keep them at the rescue.

Like I say I'm not promising but I'll ask around.

If you cannot conact the breeder, Lab rescue would be a good place to contact, they will carefully vet any potential owners.
They would also be a good source of advice
Oh i wish i could take him, good luck i hope he finds a loving home very soon

Hi Thanks luvdogs!

The lady at the rescue centre is going to try and help and see if anybody on the books.

I dont think i would rehome thomas now privately, had some weird phones since advertising and the minute you are questions e.g where do you live, do you have a garden, had a dog before? had a labbie before?? THEY ARE OFF!!!!!

By working dog, I think JSR meant is he from working/field lines or show lines? as few working folk will take on dogs from show lines.

Glenys from Labrescue NW is great, as are the Scottish rescues. So glad that you are taking that route. Breed rescues are worlds apart from rescue centres, shelters and pounds.

Edited to add -have just read that he is from Sandylands so show lines.

Yeah definately do call your local lab rescue, obviously if they can help it would be easier. Yes thanks Dundee I did mean that, mind you I have rehomed a spaniel cross to a working home...and he blows the 'proper' workers out the water!!
