The Biggest Losers! - of weight, that is! Bubba and Lacey are a bonded pair of delicious, (no longer) chunky, chocolate siblings. They came to Lab Rescue obesely overweight, in search of a new forever home after their owner passed away. Bubba was 125 lbs and Lacey was 87 lbs. They were adopted into their loving, new home in December and couldn’t be happier or more loved... AND have both just hit their goal weights!

 

From their mom:

“Got the kids weighed today. Not as much of a rodeo circus this time. The vet tech took Bubba into the building for me while I took Lacey. When I got inside, he was having difficulty getting Bubba to stay on the scale pad. They have a treat jar next to the scale. When Bubba saw I had a treat, he got on the scale and sat down. He weighs 95 lbs!! “Lacey took it all in. When she saw the treats, she sat, then followed directions very quickly and got on the scale without any fuss. She weighs 65 lbs!! “They are getting much better at leash walking. We have been practicing in the yard. The other day, when it was hotter than I first imagined, we started out the front door, walked very nicely going round toward the backyard, and before I knew it, they had led me to the back steps, and we went back inside. “I have been walking them separately before it gets really hot. They each walk about a half mile, Bubba still pulls a bit, but by the time we get to the far end of the street, he is on a loose lead. Lacey does really well, pulls a little, but not like she is in a hurry to get there like Bubba. “They have really settled in and are a joy to us. Thank you!”
