"Vetta"

"Vetta"
DOB est. 1989-1991
Nicknamed by animal shelter personnel, she entered LILRR after not being claimed by owner and not adopted probably because of her age and sickly condition.
This adorable Lab had concernable health issues and required major dental surgery to extract 18 rotted teeth, but now prances with a happy tail wagging and big smile.
Vetta is very friendly, affectionate, well behaved and housebroken
and relishes the relaxed life in Rescue foster:

October 2000
Vetta joined LILRR at the Guide Dog Foundation of Smithtown Dog Walk
(where she met her future forever family ;-)


October 2000
Vetta & Chesapeake Bay Retriever "Lily" meet for first time
at the Paws For A Cause to benefit Hi-Hello Child Ctr.
((they don't know - yet - they are destined to become adopted sisters))
Bottom right: "Charlie" & adopter stops by to say hello to LILRR.

ahhhhhh ... to spend a beautiful day in the company of such wonderful Retrievers!
