    Know anyone in the Portland, OR, area looking for a "Silver Lab"?

    There is a "Silver Lab" available for adoption at the Multnomah County Animal Control. Appropriately, they call him a Lab/Weim. mix. He is just 8 months old and sounds like an adolescent Lab/Weim. from hell. If you know anyone up for the challenge, I'd love to see him go to a knowledgeable home so he's not back at the shelter in two weeks. I don't know the dog, just saw the listing and wanted to spread the word. This is the ultimate "adopt, don't shop" situation.

    It's probably almost 100% poorly bred Weim.

    From the link I'm getting this message:
    Sorry! That page or animal is no longer available.
    So maybe he has a home now. I couldn't see him at all.

    ETA: But I see Annette could see him just a few minutes before me so maybe it's wonky for me.

    Got a page no longer available message. Good thing, too, since I want to raise my next dog from puppyhood but I still can't resist browsing rescue sites.

    I volunteered for a "Lab" rescue that started taking just about any dog and calling it a Lab mix no matter what it was. They were just trying to get them adopted because of the popularity.

    Looks like maybe he was adopted. He looks like a lot of the "Silver Labs" that I run into around there. There is a specific "breeder" locally who sells them for a few thousand on the internet and but you can't come to her facility until you pick them up. I run into them a lot.

    I noticed that when I was browsing adoption sites. It's very frustrating.
