James is a senior Labrador mix that loves and adores everyone. He enjoys being outdoors and playing with other dogs. James likes it when you throw squeaky toys: he’ll go grab them and take them to his bed to chew on later. Please help us by sharing his photo so he can find his forever home. He wants to live the rest of his life in a home with a loving family, not in the shelter all alone!
