Puppy therapy with my canine nephew

My friends asked me to check on their lab for them today. Magnus is almost 1 but is still puppy brained. He's a total lovebug; he actually wouldn't eat until he got a bunch of scratching and bellyrubs. His bite inhibition is finally kicking in; he still wants to put my hand and arm in his mouth, but he's no longer biting on it.

He's also goofy. I throw a ball and he runs for it, but about 75% of the time he gets distracted by a dust mote and son't actually retrieve it. Good thing he's pretty. I love him a bunch. DH made me promise not to try and kidnap him. And now the important part- photos!


Attachment 7841 Check out the dirt on his head.

Attachment 7842 Blurry tail!

And not sure the third one shows up, but it's classic Love Me Love Me labbiness.

He looks like a sweetheart.

Always love the tail blur photos- both the 2nd and 3rd show it! A year before bite inhibition is kicking in? Oh dear! You're such a good puppy auntie!

Magnus is a very handsome young man! How cool to have such a nice nephew!

Yeah, he’s one of those mouthy pups. And I am a good aunti! I started teaching him “spin” this afternoon, lol. Have lab, will train.

I love that you get to puppy sit I can't believe he is 1 already time does fly. He has grown in to a handsome boy

"distracted by a dust mote" Love this. Magnus looks to be a lot of fun. :)
