Hello all. Just recently adopted a lab-mixed called Honey (her first owner was old and his kids couldn't keep Honey; her second owner's daughter has bad allergies). She's a 6 yo ultra quiet dog who just loves kids. I had her home since yesterday noon and not once did I hear her bark.

Anyway, anyone know if there are any FB groups for labs? We are based in Seremban, btw - which sometimes makes it a nightmare trying to look for good quality dog food. I've decided to just order online la. cool2.gif

Oh, here's a pic. smile.gif

HI. I knew Honey's previous owners daughters. She was loved by them. She's a sweetheart.

There are some lab groups- I think there may be one like the Golden Retrivers of Malaysia ones. As for dog food- what were they feeding her before? Kibble? Are you planning to get Kibble too?

Pet Lovers Centre has some really good varieties. But I'm sure if there are any in Seremban.

Ya, it turned out that I know the first owner's daughter. LOL. They miss her heaps when I got in touch with them.

She was on Probalance before this. I have moved her to Back2Nature Lamb kibble. Occasionally she'll get some wet food (same brand). Will put her on this brand for the next couple of months while I do up some research on BARF and raw feeding.

Surprisingly, I manage to find Back2Nature, Zignature and Acana at the pet shop near my house but the price is at least RM10 more ex than PLC here at IPC. @.@

Damn! Maybe transport charges? Usually if you're a member at the pet stores, there's an additional discount. I'm so glad to hear Honey is with a dog lover. <3

TQ! Ya, those brands are pricey. I can even get better deals online!

Likely if I'm in PJ, I'll buy loh. Am waiting for the upcoming Pet Expo - hopefully there are some good deals. She's itching more than usual - it has gotten sort of better with the switch of shampoo (tried Washbar, then Dr JD Neem with Rosemary) and introduction of probiotics. Am thinking of trying out kefir and neem. I hate for it to be allergies to the new food I introduced which has no chicken or any grains. >.<

I might go 50% raw/BARF + 50% kibble as a last measure - still researching.

Aww... I was viewing Honey the day on Saturday, she "walked" my son around her park for a few rounds and didn't make any sound the whole time... We did not manage to get her probably because we are looking to adopt our first dog and the previous owner thought an experienced family is better for Honey. Still looking for someone as sweet as her

Awwww, I wish you all the best in your search. You can try joining the FB dog groups - adoption/sell dog group - I saw golden retrievers up for adoption, etc. Worse case scenario - head to a shelter loh. I pick dogs based on chemistry - not fuss about breed. wink.gif
