Description:
Poor Isis ended up at the pound after her owner passed away. None of the relatives were able to keep her, so now she needs to start over.

Isis is in good shape physically and likes to chew on an occasional bone. She loves to lean on you, get petted and roll over for belly rubs. She is a mellow girl, and would adapt easily to most circumstances. She weighs 58 pounds and is up-to-date on her shots. She is very people oriented, definitely does not need another dog in her life, but can easily coexist with dogs, cats and even with a pet rabbit.

She loves to be with her human and loves to snuggle on the couch. She loves to be with her human and loves to snuggle on the couch. Although now that it's warmer out, she has been known to leave the bed at night to sleep on the wood floor....of course, she stays in the bedroom because her human has to always be close by!

She has learned to walk nicely. A harness works best with her. She is usually very mellow.  She does not try to bolt if a door or gate is opened and she has never tried to get out of our fenced yard. She does not dig. She has a million good qualities. She just wants to go home forever and gets so excited to meet people who have shown an interest in her. I think she knows you might be her last meeting and get to go home with you! She does not exhibit those behaviors at all in her foster home. You'll have to trust me on that.

She does not like crates but she has learned to honor baby gates. She has had free roam when nobody is home and she has been gated in a bedroom....both work fine for her. She can stay home for a full 8-hour work day.

Isis is very food motivated, and knows how to sit, and shake. She takes treats very gently, and rides nicely in a car. She has a beautiful recall and comes immediately when called. She does not like to be left alone in the yard and she likes to see her human when she's outside taking care of business. She does not try to bolt if a door or gate is opened and she has never tried to get out of our fenced yard. She does not dig. She has a million good qualities, her only less then perfect one, if you can call it that, is her exuberance when meeting new people. But who can blame a poor girl who just wants to go home?

Isis is a total love! She is looking for a permanent family, although she is very happy in her foster home. She has bonded totally with our family and she will bond with you too. She is just as sweet as can be and one look in those brown eyes and you will melt. Upon first meeting, she is a rambunctious lab, but at home she is the calmest dog at my house right now. She needs to find that perfect person that understands how rambunctious labs can be....and how wonderful they are most of the time! She will be a WONDERFUL companion for the right person! Forever! Can you see it in your heart to give her the stability and love she will give you?

Shh! Its Me! Isis!.....

Let me tell you a secret, my foster family is hooked on Golden Retrievers. They think they are the best. They own two. I am the first non-Golden to break through that barrier. I have proven myself to have the same great temperament and the same devotion to humans that has attracted them to goldens over the years. So I know they are starting to like me more! Shhh.... :0)
