>> Buster - The Incredible 1200 Journey Dog!
Posted by labadmin on Saturday, June 04 @ 19:41:55 BST (1003 reads)
Meet Buster, the lost dog that made an incredible 1,200 mile journey from Colorado to California.
When Buster the dog disappeared from his home in Colorado, his owner spent hours agonising over his fate.
But despite thinking about all different possibilities, including that the beloved Labrador had been stolen or eaten by a lion, Samantha Squires could never have imagined what really happened to him.
Six months after Buster Brown vanished from his home in Boulder he was found – an astonishing 1,200 miles away in Salinas, California.
‘I have no idea how he would have made it to Salinas,’ said Mrs Squires. ‘I’ve never even heard of it before.’
Mrs Squires had given up hope of ever seeing her doggy best friend, when she received a letter in the post from an animal shelter.

>> Labrador Puppy Back On Feet After Badly Broken Leg
Posted by julieadmin on Wednesday, February 10 @ 22:13:24 GMT (1653 reads)
A Labrador puppy is back to his mischievous tricks after breaking his leg so badly it took two vets, a four-hour operation and nearly two months of aftercare to get him back on his feet.
Vet Tim Garran said the injury to dog Kenzo's leg was one of the worst he had ever seen when his owner brought him into the PDSA PetAid Hospital in Gillingham, Kent.
The excitable puppy had injured himself as he ran around his owner's legs, tripping both of them up and breaking his right front leg when it became entangled in his lead.
Mr Garran said the break needed urgent treatment as puppies' bones are softer than adult dogs. An X-ray showed it had had fractured in three places and it needed to be operated on the same day if there was any chance of saving it.

>> Treo The Labrador Awarded Animal VC
Posted by julieadmin on Saturday, February 06 @ 21:38:25 GMT (1387 reads)
Treo, an eight-year-old black Labrador, saved countless lives in Afghanistan last year by locating hidden roadside bombs.
The search dog twice saved soldiers and civilians from catastrophe while out on patrol in Helmand province by sniffing out explosives which had been wired together in a daisy chain and hidden in the path.
Princess Alexandra will award the dog with the Dickin Medal at a ceremony at the Imperial War Museum on February 24.
The medal was created by leading veterinary charity the PDSA and is recognised as the highest award an animal can receive for conspicuous gallantry or devotion to duty while serving in military conflict.
