I just got this email from someone desperate to find a home for her two Labs. After thinking that I had lost my own dog yesterday, it broke my heart to think that here is someone with no other choice but to give up her much-loved dogs and how very difficult that must be for. From the sounds of it, these dogs would make a wonderful addition to the right home. Please read on and help if you can:

Desperate to find loving home. Already housebroken, trained, love kids, neutered, up to date on shots….what more could you ask for. But must stay together. This family has lost their home and the apartment does not allow dogs.

They are looking for a home for the two Labs. See below. Katherine’s message: We are moving in just 2weeks and, unfortunately, I have still not been able to find a good home for Cookie and Coco . We’re not able to take our beloved doggies with us and I’ve been desperately trying to find a home for both of them ‘together’. They were raised together and pine without each other. The Lab rescue have already said that they would probably separate them, so this is my last resort.

Recently I tried to take Coco out in my car alone and she TOTALLY refused to even get into the car without Cookie……!!!! She absolutely pulled back on her haunches until Cookie was by her side. Both doggies are in great health, have been spayed and have ID chips implanted under the skin. Cookie turned 3 December 10th and Coco will be 3 April 1st. Cookie is my mellow-yellow, and just loves her tummy rubbed.. Coco is adorably funny and lives for her "ball". She also loves the water….. Cookie loves lots of attention. Both doggies are loyal and love to walk. They have been raised with my 3 kids running around all over the place, and have survived Sammy’s constant hugging and love of ‘dress-up’, so they are fantastic family dogs. This is by far one of the most difficult decisions I have ever had to make, but under the circumstances I have no choice. Please, Please forward these pics to all you know and help me find a great home for these fabulous doggies. They are just adorable and it’s heartbreaking to let them go. In a perfect world, I hope that we could find someone local so that we can still keep in touch and visit them. I pray that someone, somewhere can help us keep Cookie and Coco together, and love them just as much as we do. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart.
