http://people.bakersfield.com/home/Blog/BakersfieldPetCare/12621 3 Year old male Lab - Neutered, house trained, playful, spoiled The owner doesn't have the room for Jack. Jack is a big Labrador needing a great home with a fenced in yard and possibly a doggy door. Jack is looking for a loving family, he is great with other dogs and children. He does need his ears cleaned because of his floppy ears. We will start you off with the current medicine but you can consult your vet for alternatives. He is micro chipped, which the current owner will call and transfer the contact info when new owners take Jack. Last time at the vet he weighed 90#.. When new owners take Jack, they will need to license him and get his shots, which he will be needing in less then a month. He comes with his own bed, toys and a partial bag of dog food (Nutro Ultra). Currently the owners are on vacation and they are boarding the dog with me (Bakersfield Pet Care, The Pet Nanny). I am offering this dog with an adoption fee so that I know only serious loving people will want this big baby. The owners have given me full authority to pick the great new family. I would keep him but I do not have the room because I have dogs coming and going with my overnight and daycare. I have taken care of Jack in the past for up to a week at a time, I haven't had any problem with him except that he loves to be with people and if you are not careful that he will want to be your lap dog. If you are interested please contact me at 661-310-1962 or email me. Jack is currently being boarded here in Bakersfield. He loves water, these pictures were taken 7.29.07 after playing in the water.

I don't know. I or the owner has cats. But right now I have a client that is a mini schnauzer that is bossing Jack around. So I am guessing that once he knows who's boss, he is ok. He lets the schnauzer growl and bark at him and Jack does nothing. Just turns his head and walk away. http://people.bakersfield.com/home/Blog/BakersfieldPetCare/12621/#c_122712 http://people.bakersfield.com/home/Blog/BakersfieldPetCare/12621/#c_122712 I don't know.

Wonderful owners....go on vacation and then dump their pet.<br /> <br /> Jack does need a LOVING home. http://people.bakersfield.com/home/Blog/BakersfieldPetCare/12621/#c_122838 http://people.bakersfield.com/home/Blog/BakersfieldPetCare/12621/#c_122838 Wonderful owners....go on vacation and then dump their pet.<br /> <br /> Jack does need a LOVING home. Jack is not abandoned. I think she figured that it was easier to say goodbye if she didn't have to hand him over to a new owner personally. This is her baby but unfortunately some issue arrived and she must say goodbye to him. I have kept Jack a handful of times and she knows that I will do the right thing for her. http://people.bakersfield.com/home/Blog/BakersfieldPetCare/12621/#c_122997 http://people.bakersfield.com/home/Blog/BakersfieldPetCare/12621/#c_122997 Jack is not abandoned.

Any takers yet?  We've been looking for a friend for our 50# lab/cattle dog mix, but Jack is a little bigger than we were thinking.   Is he a barker? http://people.bakersfield.com/home/Blog/BakersfieldPetCare/12621/#c_124248 http://people.bakersfield.com/home/Blog/BakersfieldPetCare/12621/#c_124248 Any takers yet?  We've been looking for a friend for our 50# lab/cattle dog mix, but Jack is a little bigger than we were thinking.   Is he a barker? Jack barks at strangers, when he is lonely (no dogs around) he might bark or howl. I tell him no and he stops. He loves to play and the other dogs I have here just doesn't. He will play forever with a ball when it is thrown for him.<br /> <br /> I have many different dogs come and go and he has gotten along with ALL of them. From a boxer to a chi.<br /> <br /> PLEASE, he needs a good home. Please, community, help me find Jack a great home. http://people.bakersfield.com/home/Blog/BakersfieldPetCare/12621/#c_124282 http://people.bakersfield.com/home/Blog/BakersfieldPetCare/12621/#c_124282 Jack barks at strangers, when he is lonely (no dogs around) he might bark or howl.

Jack is still available, but he is in Tulare now with his owners.<br /> <br /> He has floppy ears which get dirty, the owner has meds to kill the infection. The majority of the Labs that I have boarded has had meds for that reason. Plus Jack goes swimming a lot.<br /> <br /> He was here for two weeks and got played with a lot, he lost some weight.

Is there any way the current owner can still keep him since she's feeling so sad?  I can imagine this is very, very difficult for her.. http://people.bakersfield.com/home/Blog/BakersfieldPetCare/12621/#c_128839 http://people.bakersfield.com/home/Blog/BakersfieldPetCare/12621/#c_128839 Labs can be quite happy living in smaller houses or apartments if they get exercised..
