Thanks for accepting me and my boy into the group! I’m from Chicago and Rebel is originally from Wisconsin. Rebel is a just-over 9-year old black lab. We’ve been together for 9 years in September. Rebel is all Lab - crazy, energetic, sweet, curious, hard, soft, good, naughty, loyal, and all the other qualities you expect from a Lab! Lately, however, Rebel has slowed down. His hips are giving him a lot of trouble. He has also decided he doesn’t care for his prescription (cardboard) anymore. I don’t blame him, but it’s just not like him to not eat whatever is put in front of him (or within his reach :0) I know I’ll be diving into his latest maladies on some of the other threads. For now, I just wanted to briefly introduce us.
