Ruff! Ruff! My name is Casanova I need a home & someone to love me Breed: Labrador Retriever Size: Large 61-100 lbs Color: Black w/ Grey or Silver Sex: Male Age: 3 months Casanova's Story: While my brother, Don Juan, tends to be the ringleader, I prefer to sit back, watch, and take it all in. And while I am a bit shy, I am every bit as sweet as my brother and a bit more independent. I am a lover too and get along fabulously with everyone in my foster home – the dogs, the cats, and the people. I especially love when my foster parents pick me up and give me hugs and kisses – it makes my tail wag and I feel just so lucky. I am close to being housetrained and I use the doggie door like a pro because I love spending time outdoors. You won’t be able to resist my big brown eyes, my fuzzy fur, or my charm, so ask about me soon! Pic:  *Pic & Info found at adopt-a-pet.com |

Eliza made her way to the animal shelter. She was looking for a dog. You know the one's that can keep you company, play with you, that you can hug, pet and so on. With a brand new house with loads of space, she needed something to keep her spirits high and don't feel so lonely.
She walked in and not seing anyone at the front desk she figured 'What the Hell, I'll go check the kennels by myself'. She pushed past the doors and was greeted by a loud chorus of barks that had her smilling. 'They're all so cute' she thought as she stopped by a Black Labrador Retriever that seemed to be napping. "You guys are going to make my choise hard aren't you?"

Caity heard the dogs barking and figured that someone was here to take another little lucky guy home. She was so happy! This was her favorite part of owning the shelter. She washed off her hands and led Olliver back to his kennel, he was all soft and clean and shiny now!!! So pretty! She saw a girl standing in front of a kennel. Hello, my name is Caity, I'm the owner of the shelter, how may I help you? She asked with a warm voice and a smile on her face. |

Eliza nearly jumped a foot in the air when she heard a voice coming from behind her. She turned around to face the girl 'Wow, she's younger than me and she already owns the shelter... wow', she thought as she smiled "Hum... Sorry, I walked in without permission..." She apologized and then went on "As a matter of fact, you can, I am looking for a dog. 'You idiot, of course you want a dog, why would you be here if you didn't?' She paused for a second "I just wanted someone that didn't mind spending a lot of time outdoors, and that didn't mind being spoiled rotten, of course" She finished with a little laugh

Caity smiled. Oh, that's okay! No problem, everyone just comes on back, we're all used to it. She said, gesturing to the dogs. Any dog would love to be spoiled rotten, it just depends on how you want them to react after you spoil them... Caity said with a smile turning to face Casanova. This one here just loves to be spoiled, with toys and attention! And he doesn't let it get to his head or anything... As long as you let him work off all the treats and such... She said with a little laugh. |

Eliza eyed the dog once again. She sure seemed to like him. It had caught her eye in the first place. "Really?" she asked "He seems quite shy" But even with that, a shy dog would be perfect for her. Matching personalities. She laughed at the thought "He does seem adorable... Does he have a name?" She asked with her eyes still glued on the Black Labrador Retriever

Caity nodded. He is shy, with strangers, but when he really gets to know you, he lets you get to know him too. She said with a smile, opening the gate and crouching down to rub Casanova. This little guy is Casanova. She said before she gave him a kiss. |

'Woa, familiar much?' Eliza asked herself as she heard Caity discribe Casanova. Casanova, what an interesting name. She crouched to next to Caity, and extented her hand to Casanova "So, Casanova, what do you think of me?" She asked him, waiting for a reaction

Caity smiled as Casanova slinked himself closer to the two girls and sniffed Eliza's hand and licked it once or twice. It's okay! She's nice! She said to him when he looked up to her with his big, questioning puppy dog eyes, and then looked back to Eliza. |

Eliza nearly laughed as Casanova looked at Caity as if he was asking 'Is she a friend?' He looked so human at that moment "Yeah Casanova, I'm a friend" she said with a smile. She had always had a soft spot for animals, expecially for dogs. She just couldn't help but love them.

Caity smiled. Do you have any questions about this little guy? Caity asked Eliza, hoping to help her as much as she could. Do you want to take him out and play with him or anything? Get to know him a little bit before you make a decision? Or do you want to meet any other of our dogs. [/blockquote] |

Eliza smiled "Only one. I noticed he's shy around people. But how does he react to other animals?" Well, she didn't like it when dogs barked to every living thing, it was terribly annoying. She knew they had their reasons for doing so, but still, it annoyed her...
"And I think it's best not to meet anyone else. Otherwise I'll be spending the day here trying to decide"

Caity smiled and nodded. Yeah, I know what you mean, I find it hard for me to leave these guys. She said with a shrug. Well, he's really great with other animals, and people. He doesn't bark too much, just when something is really bothering him, or if he doesn't know quite what's going on. Caity said as she rubbed Casanova's head. [/blockquote] |

"Sounds perfect!" she exclaimed and then turned to Casanova, with a very serious face, although she was joking "So tell me, Casanova, would you mind coming home with me?

Of course he would! Caity said as she watched Casanova wag his tail and get all excited about getting a new home. He sure seems excited! Caity said as she looked back to Eliza. Do you have any other questions or anything that you would like to know? Caity asked, trying to help Eliza as much as she could. |

"No, I think it's everything" she answered petting Casanova "But if anything shows up, I know where to reach you she added with a laugh

Caity nodded. Of course. She said as she looked down the hallway of kennels as someone else walked through the door to hopefully adopt a puppy. Caity turned back to Eliza. So, before I go, would you like me to get you a leash or anything? She asked as she scratched Casanova's head, as her goodbye. [/blockquote] |

"A leash yes, I think I'm going to buy the rest" She replied with a smile. Caity was really good at her job, really helpfull, and one could tell she really liked the animals.

Caity nodded and then swiftly turned around and walked across the hall and grabbed a leash she returned just a minute later and attached the leash to Casanova's collar and then handed the other end to Eliza. Bye Casanova! We'll miss you! She said speaking for herself and the rest of the dogs in the kennel. Then she said a quick goodbye to Eliza and told her to call the shelter if she needed anything and turned around to help the next adopter to find their new best friend. [/blockquote] |

"Bye!" Eliza said in a childish voice, before taking Casnova to her car. She opened the passenger dor and he climbed up, his tail waging. She smilled some more as she turned the car on and drove away from the shelter
