Meet Captain!

Captain is a 10-month-old, 75-pound bundle of goofy, happy puppy love! Don’t let his size fool you—this big boy is still a puppy at heart, and he has a way of putting a smile on your face simply by being around him.

Captain is always happy and ready for fun, especially when there are other dogs around. He absolutely loves playing with his canine friends and would make a wonderful companion for an active family looking for a playful, social pup.

And then there’s water... Captain LOVES water! If there’s a puddle, kiddie pool, creek, pond, or basically any available source of water, you can bet Captain is going to find it—and chances are, he’ll be completely submerged before you know it!

When he’s not busy making a splash, Captain enjoys toys, playtime, and gnawing on deer antlers. But underneath all that goofy puppy energy is a big-hearted boy who simply wants to be loved. His big puppy-dog face says it all—he’s ready to find his people and give them all the love he has to offer.

Captain is the kind of dog who brings joy wherever he goes. He’s silly, affectionate, playful, and full of personality. If you’re looking for a big goofy boy who will keep you laughing, join you for adventures, and happily turn every body of water into his personal swimming pool, Captain may be your perfect match!

Captain is ready to meet his forever family. Could that be you?

    Breed info

    The Labrador Retriever, often abbreviated to Labrador, is a breed of retriever-gun dog from the United Kingdom that was developed from imported Canadian fishing dogs. The Labrador is one of the most popular dog breeds in a number of countries in the world, particularly in the Western world. A popular disability assistance breed in many countries, Labradors are frequently trained to aid those with blindness or autism, act as a therapy dog, or perform screening and detection work for law enforcement and other official agencies. The breed is best known for their obedience, loyalty, and playful composure. Additionally, they are prized as sporting and hunting dogs. Ancestors include a breed used in Newfoundland as fishing dogs, that would help in bringing in the fishing nets and recapture escaped fish. In the 1830s, the 10th Earl of Home and his nephews the 5th Duke of Buccleuch and Lord John Scott, had imported progenitors of the breed from Newfoundland to Europe for use as gundogs. Another early advocate of these Newfoundland fishing dogs was the 2nd Earl of Malmesbury, who bred them for their expertise in waterfowling. During the 1880s, the 3rd Earl of Malmesbury, the 6th Duke of Buccleuch, and the 12th Earl of Home collaborated to develop and establish the Labrador Retriever breed. The dogs Buccleuch Avon and Buccleuch Ned, given by Malmesbury to Buccleuch, were mated with bitches carrying blood from those originally imported by the 5th Duke and the 10th Earl of Home. The offspring are the ancestors of all modern Labradors.
