About Biscuit
Biscuit came to us when his family moved interstate and couldn't take him. He's a textbook Lab: thinks every person is a friend he hasn't met, and every tennis ball is a personal mission. He's done basic obedience and will do almost anything for a piece of cheese.
The home he's hoping for
Someone active who'll take him on a proper walk every day. He's a first-timer's dream and happy in a unit as long as he gets out and about.
“Sleeps on his bed in the lounge, no crate needed. Steals socks but gives them back.”
A day with Biscuit
6am beach walk, sniffing every washed-up thing
Breakfast, then a long nap by the door
Afternoon fetch in the park
Evening cuddles on the floor (he's too big for the couch, he doesn't know that)
