http://www.tehachapinews.com/home/Blog/oilfieldtrash72/15736 Well due to a recent divorce I need to get rid of my dog. He's a 7 year old yellow lab. He's papered and he's not fixed. I work out of town and I don't want him sitting in the winter cold for a week at a time while I'm gone. I've been having my neighbor watch him while I was at work but I can't see doing that throughout the winter. If you or someone you know might be interested you can email me at btg03@hotmail.com. He's free. I'd like to see him with his own yard to roam around in. He's great with kids and other dogs. He wouldn't hurt a flee. He also loves to play and &nbsp;fetch.

I'll try that. </p> <p>As far as the dog, he's an outdoor dog and he hasn't been neutered. I have sent an email to the Tehachapi humane society to get some assistance in placing him. I WILL NOT dump him off. The only I still have him is cuz I love the big fella. I've been paying the teenager next door to take care of him while I'm gone. He feeds him, plays with him and walks him a couple times a week. I'm afraid he won't get that attention during the winter and I don't want him out in the cold all week while I'm gone. So now I'm tryin to find him a home.</p> http://www.tehachapinews.com/home/Blog/oilfieldtrash72/15736/#c_148740 http://www.tehachapinews.com/home/Blog/oilfieldtrash72/15736/#c_148740 <p>Well I haven't thought of craigslist.
