Some pics on my boys, Tana and Toby on Tana's 5th birthday last week

The third one from the bottom, with the Kong (?) black ball? That's Thor's favorite toy! We found some USA made Wet Noses dog treats at Costco, and the round cookies are the perfect size to wedge in perfectly between the holes in the ball. Thor will spend hours throwing the thing around to dislodge one of those cookies! I highly recommend pairing those cookies with that toy - endless entertainment for both the pups and you!

Yeah this ball is a favourite of both my boys, I actually got it for Tana in the first lot of toys I brought for him as pup before I got him from the breeder. Tks for tip on the cookies, we now have Costco in Australia, will have to check it out for the cookies. I see chaos reigning supreme if I place cookies in the ball and give to one of them. Will need to probably put the other one outside and give them turns otherwise Toby who is bit of bossy boots when it comes to toys and food as he will steal Tana's share of the cookies. Toby's motto is the "quick and the dead"

Are they from the same breeder??? They look so much alike.

No they are not from the same breeder, however there is a common ancestor in their pedigree at the great grandparent level and Tana's pedigree (Driftway) features quite strongly in Toby's Sire, Sire's grandparents and Sire's great parents. I adopted Toby from a Lab Rescue org and was fortunate that his pedigree papers had been provided to the Lab Rescue when his owners surrendered him when their marriage broke up, so I know his full pedigree. Tana I got from the breeder (Guy Spagnolo - Driftway) when he was 10 weeks old, so have his pedigree papers as well.
