After having a bad year, losing three pets just under 3-months-old, two of them unexpectedly, my husband and I began our search for adoptable puppies. That's when we found Snickers and her 9 puppies on Petfinders.com. The puppies were approximately 2-weeks-old, all gathered around their mother. We watched them for about a week, as new photos were constantly being uploaded to the website and then contacted Labs N More Rescue for more information; they were just so darn cute!I filled out the applications for adoption, considering, of course, there were nine puppies.
On July 5, 2007, after they completed their research and evaluation on us, we were given the good news. I was so excited I called my husband at work and told him we were going to be parents.
Labs N More Rescue kept me posted on everything that was going on with O'Henry, which we later renamed Rufus Henry. It was a long three weeks before we could actually pick him up, but when the day finally came, and as prepared as we were, we were not prepared for the puppy that we got. He was as cute as could be in all the pictures, but he was even cuter in person.
When Rufus Henry got home to our house, we had a homecoming party for him. He had a blast. In fact, he was so tired from his long day that he slept on his back, on our bed that evening! Rufus loves everyone. He has brought so much joy and fun to our lives. I have never owned a puppy with more personality!
Rufus Henry has overcome some obstacles as his older brother, Winston, was not really excepting him at first. Rufus did win him over though. He also had to deal with the addition of six kittens. It was absolutely amazing watching them. He still tries to carry them in his mouth on occasion.
I would fully recommend Labs N More Rescue as they gave us a high-quality, well-trained, socialized puppy!
