DOG OF THE WEEK - HELP LAUREN FIND HER "FOREVER" HOME

Lauren is a 4 months old Great Dane/Labrador Retriever mix. She is a large, gentle dog full of love.

Lauren is a 4 months old Great Dane/Labrador Retriever mix. She will be a large dog when fully grown and is already 40 pounds. Lauren has the face of a Labrador Retriever but the body and legs of a Great Dane. She has a beautiful, shiny black coat. Lauren is a very loving, sweet and obedient dog. She sits on command and gets along well with the other foster dogs. Lauren behaves well around children. She enjoys playing in the yard and going on long walks. Lauren is up to date with her vaccinations, spayed and micro-chipped.

About Home for Good Dog Rescue:

Home for Good is a volunteer-based, 501(c) (3) non-profit animal rescue. We are a 100 percent foster based organization with an office in Berkeley Heights, New Jersey. Our organization is dedicated to rescuing dogs from deplorable conditions in kill shelters, tending to their physical needs and finding them a new loving home where they can thrive.

At Home for Good, we seek the best treatment for our animals. We provide medical care, training, support and hope. Our dogs are vaccinated and ID micro-chipped. We rescue puppies and dogs that are facing euthanasia. Some require surgery from a specialist to repair broken limbs, while others may need additional rehabilitation time and specific medical care for respiratory illnesses, skin infections, heartworm treatments, and emergency surgeries. Through our adoption services, these loving animals are given a chance at a fulfilled life.
