This adorable pair of chocolate Labradors are Harley and Sadie who are father and daughter aged 12 years and 10 years, respectively. They are currently living in a foster home in the Sherfield-on-Loddon, Hook area provided by On the Way Home Dog Rescue. They are described as two wonderful characters who very much love each other’s company and are looking for a retirement foster or permanent home together.
Typical Labs, Harley & Sadie are both very loving dogs and have settled extremely well in their new environment after their owner became homeless. They love having a play around and certainly enjoy a fuss but, equally, enjoy down-time and like to lay next to your feet.
Harley is a lovely boy, easy-going and happy. He has epilepsy which is controlled by medication but a previous seizure has affected one of his rear legs and sadly he has some reduced mobility with some muscle wastage as a result. Harley is very easy-going and will need to build up his walks but he takes everything in his stride, like his daily medication without any hassle. Harley’s foster carer has been working on his mobility and it has improved significantly in the two months that he has been with her.
Sadie is a great character and also a typical Lab – she enjoys her food! Sadie is almost like a senior pup and loves her toys, a bit of tug of war and a belly rub. She gets very excited to go out for her walks, but can be a bit nervous and vocal when other dogs run at her and invade her space, but she soon calms. Sadie gets distressed in a car so will need to be crated for any journeys but, hopefully, with some nice trips out, this will improve.
