Labrador Retriever and Golden Retriever Dogs Available for Adoption in Columbia, Missouri

Are you looking for your very own Rocket Man?!?

Can you imagine living with your people for 7 years and then having to go to some other strange planet, in the hopes that new people will welcome you and love you?!?

I bet Astro felt more like an alien than the Rocket Man, he truly is.

While he might resemble more of an 80 lb. asteroid now, he is still able to be playful, loving and adaptable.

He has settled into the Ops Plan of his current voyage, with 5 dogs, really well.

He is spaceship trained ( we do have a doggie door).

He remains in his space chamber during the day (takes a little patience and cheese tax to go in) and sleeps in the human sleeping quarters at night.

He is taking seizure meds related to a reaction to flea/tick meds and so he wears a galaxy friendly collar.

He is super tolerant of our 1-year-old deaf and blind dog, that can be a lot to play with, as she jumps all over you trying to find you. He REALLY likes her but is easily redirected when it is too much.

We expect a shooting star “glow up” for this “out of this world” dog.

Is Astro the Rocket Man you are looking for?!?
