"Hippy" - 7 year old Chocolate Lab

Hippy was surrendered to the shelter by his owner who was very distraught about having to part with her companion. She absolutely did everything she could for Hippy upon acquiring him from her son, who did not take the greatest care of him. Hippy is your typical amazing Labrador; he seeks companionship and at 7 years old, finds himself in an anxious state at the shelter, longing for his old life back. Sadly, his owner was diagnosed with a terminal disease and had to leave to receive treatment in order to prolong her life. She has called several times to check on him and is very regretful of the circumstances placed upon Hippy.

Hippy is having a difficult time at the shelter; he longs to be with humans and is accustomed to living in a home. He is anxious, overwhelmed, and distraught. All that Hippy knows has vanished yet his hope for anew remains strong.

While Hippy is an adult at 7 years old, he is in great health. He is heartworm negative and has been fully vetted. His owner indicated that Hippy is housebroken and adores children.

He is a majestic, cocoa coated teddy bear and we have high hopes for him that his new person/family is out there.
Hippy is available for adoption at 1869 Ames Blvd., Marrero, LA 70072. Please call 504-349-5111 for more info.
