Looking for a Friend?

This is Shasta and she was recently adopted from Paws and Claws Humane Society, here in Rochester. Amy and I, think the Paws and Claws shelter provides a great service to the community. If you interested in a pet or would like to help by donating your time or money, take a minute to check out their website. (The website can always be found in the Links, lower right hand side.)
  • Breed Lab: Mix
  • Sex: Unaltered Broad
  • Date of Birth: 12/17/05
  • Weight: (Growing puppy)
  • Shoulder Height: (Growing puppy)
  • Activity: Level High
  • Housetraining: Untrained Puppy
  • Leash Manners: Learning to walk on leash.
  • Grooming: Requirements Low
  • Dog Sociability: Yes
  • Adoption Fee: $150 + $35 spay deposit
  • Restrictions: Children in the home must be over six years of age.

Shasta was born at the shelter on one of the coldest nights of 2005, after her mom had been found wandering on her own only a week before. Shasta and her eight siblings have all grown into healthy, happy bundles of fluff.


Shasta is a very friendly, affectionate puppy! She is a real tail-wagger who loves everyone she meets. Typical of most Labrador puppies, Shasta has a very strong desire to explore her world with her mouth. She will need plenty of appropriate chew toys and positive guidance to help her learn what can and cannot go in her mouth. Shasta is working on pottytraining. As with most puppies, a consistent schedule and patience will help her learn. Paws and Claws strongly recommends puppy classes for all puppies and puppy owners to aid in continued socialization and help teach good manners from the start. Shasta is very smart and would love to attend classes with her new family!

Alex and Rudi both think shes cute..

Nope, Amy and I didn’t adopt a pet. I was just letting people know about Paws and Claws..

Also, I think I could come up with a better name than Shasta, Stretch, or Rags..

How about Zoe? Is that a better name? And I think you need to start being more clear in your blog as you are confusing people. Tanya and I are not the only ones who didn't understand, we just had the balls to say something about it.

This must fall into the "more" part of "What's going on with the McIntoshs's and more..."
