Mark and Zorro are wonderful, wonderful black labs that happen to also be brothers. We found them 7 years ago as puppies in one of the back fields at a horse farm in Cherokee County . Mark and Zorro have lived their entire lives at the farm under the care of the owner. Sadly the owner passed away and now the fate of the boys is in question.

They still live at the farm and are being cared for but this is not a permanent solution and worse without a person that they consider their "owner" there and living in the house, the dogs are alone more than before and they have begun to wander off, roaming along the street and the nearby subdivisions. They have been picked up several times and neighbors are becoming upset. They are chipped so fortunately when they are picked up we get called and although we do not live there we are able to get them home again. Recently what we fear most happened and Zorro was hit by a car. Fortunately he was not hurt badly but the next time we may not be so lucky. With no one living in the house the boys are feeling a bit lost and desperately want to be with people and be a part of a family again. In addition to getting hit, since they are so friendly we are afraid that they will get picked up and fall into the wrong hands. So we are in a critical pinch to find a home.

They are healthy, each about 100-105, neutered and up to date on shots, etc. If Mark and Zorro could talk they would say " We would love to come live with someone that we could consider our "human'"..."we are lots of fun and wouldn't cause any trouble we promise"! Also if for any reason it would not work out we would gladly take them back and try to find another home. But as wonderful as they are I can't imagine it not working! While keeping them together would be great they would be perfectly fine getting separate loving homes! So even if you are interested and can take either Mark or Zorro that would be wonderful. They are housebroken and even though they are large they think they are lapdogs and are very good inside dogs as well.

Even if you cant take them, please pass this around! Contact: Katherine at:kjmorris74@yahoo.com 
 We are moving overseas in just 2 weeks. Unfortunately, I have still not been able to find a good home for Cookie and Coco . We ' re not able to take our beloved doggies with us and I ' ve been desperately trying to find a home for both of them ' together ' . They were raised together and pine without each other. The Lab rescue have already said that they would probably separate them, so this is my last resort. Recently I tried to take Coco out in my car alone and she TOTALLY refused to even get into the car without Cookie......!!!! She absolutely pulled back on her haunches until Cookie was by her side. Both doggies are in great health, have been spayed and have ID chips implanted under the skin. Cookie turned 3 December 10th and Coco turned 3 April 1st. Cookie is my mellow-yellow, and just loves her tummy rubbed. Coco is adorably funny and lives for her "ball." She also loves the water...... Cookie loves lots of attention. Both doggies are loyal and love to walk. They have been raised with my 3 kids running around all over the place, and have survived Sammy ' s constant hugging and love of ' dress-up ' , so they are fantastic family dogs. This is by far one of the most difficult decisions I have ever had to make, but under the circumstances I have no choice. Please, please forward these pics to all your friends. I want to find a great home for these fabulous doggies. They are just adorable and it ' s heartbreaking to let them go. In a perfect world, I hope that we could find someone local so that we can still keep in touch and visit them. I pray that someone, somewhere can help us keep Cookie and Coco together, and love them just as much as we do.Thank you all from the bottom of my heart.mailto:heart.kjmorris74@yahoo.com    

Do any of you guys know of a boarding facility that will give a discount for boarding a dog?  This pup was found by Diane Roadcap on the side of 495 and was hit by a car (see leg below).  Luckily it was just bruising.  A girl who had also stopped to try and help ended up taking him to her vet and then home (where she has 2 dogs – one an aggressive dog, and 2 cats) She kept him locked out in her back yard, and tied to a tree in her front yard when her dogs were out and tonight ended up taking him to the shelter.  She had received a number of offers from people to foster the dog while we continue to look for his owners but for some reason didn’t follow up on them.  My friend Kevin Anderson also reached out to her about helping.

Foster care is our first priority but we are also looking for a boarding facility as back up.  Kevin is going on vacation for a week and I don’t personally know the other folks who have stepped up

Any ideas or help would be great – He seems to be a great dog, - neutered male – young (maybe 1-3 years according to Diane) HW – just a bit bruised and battered from being hit by a car going 65 mph +  (no microchip.. )

Thanks Chris
