Description
Dog Breed: Labrador Retriever / Beagle. This is a courtesy posting. Please call 410-627-6563 for information. Moose McDougal (Moose, Gary Moosie), Retriever Mix, 2 yo in October 2024, 65 lbs Moose McDougal, the humble dog overflowing with personality. He’s spectacular. He is house and crate trained. He knows basic commands and walks well on a leash. Smarts? Yes! He has brains and beauty. You can get him to do anything for a treat! Good with other dogs? We are so happy to add to Moose’s bio that he could live with another dog. He made fast friends with another foster dog who is smaller and female. He does not need a doggie friend but he has truly enjoyed making a new friend. Favorite things? RUNNING! Investigating! Playing with other dogs. Cutie will play ball by himself by throwing the ball in the air with a flick of his head. No words for the goofiness on display. Personality? Goofy. Caring. Independent. Curious. Background? Moose was adopted as a pup when his original owners were visiting Turks & Caicos. He was brought back to NYC. The bustling city life was not his style. He’s meant to be running free in a yard and not stressed by strangers coming at him from every angle. Ideal Family? Moose needs an adult-only, quiet home. New people scare him. He warms up over time after he feels safe. Totally do-able with patience. Ask us about him getting acquainted with his dog walker. <3 Ideal Home? Give this speedster a good, fenced yard where he can fulfill his fantasy of being the graceful, Axis deer, running through endless fields. We have one strict requirement for Moose’s adoptive family. They must agree to continue his persona of Moose McDougal, investigative reporter, complete with a very specific voice.

Overview:
The Labrador Retriever, a beloved and highly popular breed, originated in Newfoundland, Canada, where they were initially bred to assist fishermen by retrieving nets and stray fish. Physically, they are medium-to-large dogs, known for their strong, athletic build, short, dense, weather-resistant double coat (commonly seen in black, yellow, or chocolate), and their distinctive "otter" tail. Temperamentally, Labs are celebrated for their friendly, outgoing, and good-natured disposition, making them exceptional family companions. Their intelligence and eagerness to please contribute to their trainability, though they do require consistent exercise to prevent boredom and destructive behaviors. While adaptable, their energy levels make them more suited to homes with yards, or highly active families, rather than apartment living, unless daily extensive exercise is guaranteed. Regarding health, Labs can be prone to certain conditions like hip and elbow dysplasia, and some eye conditions, so responsible breeding practices are crucial. Overall, their loyalty, versatility, and affectionate nature firmly establish the Labrador Retriever as a wonderful addition to many households.
