    Thank you so much for adding me to the family of lab lovers. I am the proud mom of not one, but two very active yellow lab puppies, Bosley & Hannah. So, as you can imagine I am going to need a lot of advice.

    Hi there and welcome! I admire your particular brand of craziness but am alas not brave enough to try it myself! There are many others on here who have two Labs, though, so you will get plenty of advice and commiseration:)

    Hi and welcome to the forum from my two horrors, Willow and Shadow, who are litter mates. They are now 21 months, and still hard work at times, but also a complete delight. How old are Bosley and Hannah? We'd love to see more photos :)

    Welcome to you!

    I have one lab (Tatze, black, 3 years old) and a new puppy every year! I'm a puppy walker for Guide Dogs and Twiglet (yellow Lab/GR, 11 months old) is off to Big School at the end of May.

    Hi Caryn,
    Ah on the days when it's a bit hectic you can always think that double mischief also brings double puppy fun and cuddles too.......
    Are they both litter mates?
    I have Dexter who is our first dog so I have no experience of 2 dogs together let alone 2 puppies.From chats on the Forum I understand it can take quite a lot of planning to gain time to bond with and train each dog separately,that is the thing I think I would probably be most challenged by.....
    lovely to see you here,there's so much advice and information to help you navigate through
    Best wishes
    Angela X

    Thank you and hi Lilly! Brave or foolish, knowing what I know now I'd do it all over again. They are the light of my life!

    Hi Angela! Yes, they are litter mates, inseparable, and the best decision I ever made. Hannah takes to training a little quicker than Bosley. I think he actually learns from watching her and their natural desire to please makes it easy. Unfortunately their attention span is short lived and play time wins out...ahhh, the life of a puppy!

    Mable is beautiful! I'm sure you have a lot of stories to share as well. I'm gathering pictures of Bisley & Hannah to share.

    Bosley and Hannah are 11 month old litter mates. Bosley was actually the "runt" of the litter, who is now 73 lbs. of sheer muscle, can't imagine what the biggest one is like. There will be tons of pictures just as soon as I can figure out how to up load them to the forum. Everyone has been so welcoming, I'm going to really like this forum!

    Bored is not an adjective I think I will ever use, they certainly keep me on my toes!
