The wife and I just got back from our local shelter.... there were five lab 'mix' puppies there (only been there a few days). The puppies appear to be mostly lab (all five were chocolate color and look like Zakk when we got him), are ~8 weeks old, but I forgot to see how many of each sex. THe story was that the mother had dug a hole to give birth and later got hit by a car. A woman found them and turned them in to the shelter. Two of them have small white patches on their chest and the rest appear to be solid (they stayed piled up for the majority of the time we were there). If I knew that we could get through the potty training stage again, we would grab one of these little guys. I have attached a few pics (sorry but all I had was my cell phone) and a link to the shelter in case anyone is interested in adopting one. The staff at the shelter did mention that they work with http://www.labrescuenc.org/ to place these dogs.
Sorry if this is not the 'correct' way to post this type of thing but I just hate to see these little guys in the shelter :'(.

My wife and I would be willing to help with transport if someone is interested.
Honestly, they are BEAUTIFUL! I picked two of them up and held them. They are soooo soft and loveable with big blue eyes!!!!
I would be SO THRILLED to find them a good home.
NC Lab Rescue is not accepting anymore dogs right now (for almost a month) ... so please please help us adopt these little guys out!

They are adorable. I found Mambo at 6 weeks in a shelter and couldn't be happier. Hopefully they find homes soon. Man I wish I could have one.
Where are they located? I'm in the Wilmington NC area????

These pups were so cute... if he saw them, he would have to get one! I would love to have a puppy for Zakk (in other words, another dog to tire him out ;D).
Just wanted everyone to know that I stopped back by the Animal Shelter and all 5 puppies were adopted Sunday afternoon.
Actually, a Virginia Rescue came and got 17 dogs from our shelter, including the pups! Just wanted everyone to know!
Thanks for your concerns and help!
