Description:

TJ is no stranger to impound.  He had a very irresponsible owner, who constantly let him run loose in the city.  The last time he was in impound, his owner told Animal Control that "if it happens again, he's as good as dead, cuz no dumb dog is worth the money."  Thankfully, when TJ was impounded this time, they got no response from his owner, and officers dispatched to his residence found it abandoned.  Yippee!  This time impound was free to help find TJ the new, loving home that he deserved.  

Here is TJ's description from impound:
"He is a very friendly and easy-going boy.  He loves people and instantly
becomes friends with everyone he meets.  He is affectionate and will crawl into your
lap if you let him.  He's mellow for a lab and loves to soak up any attention that
comes his way.  Weighing in at 53 pounds he is on the petite side for a male.  He
does well in the kennel and is not a barker.  He walks very well on leash and
although he doesn't respond to the "heel" command he seems to naturally stay by my
side.  He knows "sit" and will "down" for treats.  He approaches other dogs in a
friendly manner and is willing to engage in play.  He was respectful and gentle
with our clinic cats.  He was very careful when he approached them and moved slowly
as if he was trying not to scare them.  After sniffing the cats he quickly moved on
to greeting a client that was in our lobby.  He's a wonderful boy who aims to
please.  He is begging for the chance to make a GOOD owner
very happy."
