DOG OF THE WEEK - Help Brock Find His Forever Home

This 5-month-old Labrador retriever mix needs a home. Will it be yours?

Brock is a beautiful brindle colored 5-month-old Labrador retriever mix with sparkling eyes. He was scheduled to be euthanized in a South Carolina shelter, but Home For Good arranged to pull him out of the animal shelter and transported him to New Jersey for local adoption. Brock is up-to-date with his vaccinations and is micro-chipped.

Brock is currently in New Jersey, staying with a local HFG foster while waiting for his forever home. His foster mom says, "Brock is a really sweet boy. He walks well on a leash and sleeps the night in his crate. Brock is crate trained and he is doing great with house breaking. He has such sweet green eyes and is so affectionate. He loves to cuddle up in my lap and give me kisses and hugs. He gets along with all other dogs we've encountered."

For more information on Brock or any of the other dogs available through Home for Good Dog Rescue, please visit the Home for Good web site, call (908) 598-8212 or email contacthfg@gmail.com.
