BREED: YELLOW LAB
AGE: 9-11
OWNER: MARJORIE LIPSON
PRODUCT USED: FLEXGEL
STORY: Duncan is an approximately 9-11
year old yellow Lab. I first sighted Duncan in
my local kill shelter Memorial Day weekend
2003 where he was picked up as a stray. This
is a unique shelter in that they have a very low
euthanasia rate and never euthanize an
adoptable dog. I was sure he would find a
home quickly. The dogs have a room to play
in and volunteers from The Shelter Connection
to walk, train and play with them. I usually get
a call from them when they have exhausted
all efforts in finding a home. I went back to the
shelter a few months later and to my amaze-
ment, Duncan was still there. A friend of mine
who has a 13 year old Lab offered to foster
him for me. Duncan had lots of "old man"
issues - skin tag growing inside his eye lid,
a tumor on his back that resembled The Hunchback of Notre Dam, a grapefruit size
tumor on his chest and one of the worse coats I've ever seen. Even though the shelter
uses Kurunda beds, Duncan preferred the concrete floor which was hard on his old
joints. A year has passed and Duncan has had his required surgeries and is a new dog.
He's also a year older and hopes that Pain Free will make him feel even better.
