    Hello Everyone,

    My name is Dave & I am in the process of getting ready for my first Lab puppy ;D!!

    Little Charlie will be with me by the end of August so i am preparing everything now & what a mine field.
    I am sure though this will be made easier with this forum & you guys.

    I've been looking on this site for a couple of days now & all i can say is well done to everyone involved it's a cracker!

    Now back to work...have a great weeknd & enjoy this great weather

    Regards

    Dave

    Hi Dave and welcome to the forum. :D
    I bet you can't wait for your new friend to arrive. Is Charlie your first lab? Don't forget to put some photos up once he has come home. Enjoy the forum. ;D

    Thank you for your warm welcome.

    Charlie is my first pup. I took in a six year old Lab & had 7 magical years with him. Also throughout the years our family have had lab crosses. When i lost Jazz it totally ripped me
    as we went absolutely every where together. So after a large gap i decided the time was right & I wanted a puppy so i could have the full Labrador experience!!!

    You are right i can't wait ;D @47 i never thought i could get so excited! I am off to see Charlie again today hopefully i will get some nice pictures & post them later.

    Cheers

    Dave

    Hi Angela,

    Charlie is just over 2 weeks old. A very tiny black male Labrador. I saw him last Saturday with his Mum & brother & sisters. His Mum is just so good with them, a real natural.

    Jazz was so, so special hence the big break before getting another dog but Charlie will be my new buddy & we'll have just as much fun together!!

    Now the long wait....stroll on the end of August ;D ;D

    How exciting that you are getting a new puppy :)

    It sounds like you had a really wonderful relationship with Jazz. It's something to cherish.

    I'm sure you'll love having Charlie. Can't wait to see pics of your little man.

    Hooray, another Charlie! An excellent choice of name. ;D

    Hello from me and Charlie, 5 months now.

    I can remember the excitement! It's wonderful!

    Here is my Charlie on his first day home with us (seems so long ago now! He is so much bigger, they grow so quick). It was a very special day.

    Welcome from me and Obi (currently asleep on our bed...just want to say that even if you buy a king sized duvet cover and put it on a double sized bed you still end up with barely enough duvet to cover your modesty once the Labrador hoves into the picture).
