After recently losing both my senior Labs to cancer within a couple of months of one another, I thought I could never go through that again and decided to try and live dogless. A few weeks later I got a call from a friend who had a friend who'd had a litter of 10 Chocolates and someone had backed out on their deposit, would I be interested in taking a look? Well, you can guess how that went. This is Marley the night I brought him home: He is my first brown Lab and so far we're off to a great start! We're at about 90% in the housebreaking department and clicker training has got him doing sits and downs consistently. He seems to be a retrieving machine as he brings back everything I throw and drops it for more. I live on a busy street so recall training is a top priority, which is how I ended up at this site via Google. Looks to be a goldmine of good info here!
Hello and welcome to the forum from me and my three, Willow (black bitch, 2.5 years), Shadow (yellow dog, 2.5 years) and new addition Luna (chocolate bitch, 16 weeks).
Aw, Marley, you are lovely! Welcome to the forum - from me and my big yellow boy Pongo in South Wales. Looking forward to hearing all about your adventures!
Welcome to you and Marley from Hattie 9 years and our rescue boy Charlie 6 years. I am so sorry you lost your friends, so very tough. Marley is absolutely gorgeous, enjoy. xx
Thanks all!...anyone know why I'm not getting email notices of replys...I think I have everything turned on
Just having a look. Should there be two "d"s in your email address? I've sent you a test email from the system. Let me know if you get it.
Hello to you and the delightful Marley from Coco & me on the Isle of Man. You've been through a tough time, losing your 2 so close together.
Welcome from Holly and me in Monmouth, Wales. We tried to be dogless after our last Lab died but it was impossible.
