Hey there — I'm Gordon, an 8-month-old black and brown Labrador Retriever mix, and I'm basically a bundle of joy on four paws! 🐾 I'm already neutered and ready to bring energy, friendliness, and smarts to your home. At a medium 38 pounds, I've got plenty of room to grow, and I'm playful enough to keep you entertained for hours. Whether you're up for games, training, or just hanging out with an enthusiastic pup, I'm your guy! Come meet me and let's start our adventure together. 🎾💛

Wishlist Wednesday!

We need water buckets for the dogs.
We need around 20 to get us started.
In this heat keeping the dogs water, clean, fresh, and cool is very important and these buckets are the best solution for both ands and staff.

Donations can be dropped off or mailed to Animal Ark Rescue at 2509 Manchester Expressway, Columbus, Ga 31904 and staff will get them on base.

Or they can be dropped off at the stray facility.
