I live on a lake, with a lot of hiking/biking/nature trails plus the neighborhoods are nice to walk through. The yard would mainly be for when my daughter, who is 11 right now, needs to let the dog...
Thanks! I realize that a huge yard doesn't mean you don't have to exercise a dog, besides I am pretty active outdoors anyway and it's nice to be able to have a companion on hikes and walks.
I'm...
So I'm looking at buying a house, but trying to stay in the same area that I live in now. Unfortunately, that means I will likely end up in a townhouse. It's not my first choice, but it's my first...
It seems that dog parks have become to dog owners what many playgrounds are to parents: set the kids free and look in every once in a while (maybe) while you drink your coffee and gossip with a few...
I am so sorry that happened!! I second that the other owner should definitely pay the bills, and I hope for a fast recovery.
My last dog was an APBT, for those who own them and KNOW the breed are...
To add to yours, everything that I've read also stated that Labs are the best and that the end result is worth the initial hardships (should there be any) of the beginning. :)
I agree, however I think far too many people get a dog and don't put in the extra effort and wonder why it's "not as well-behaved as the dog I grew up with," or even like a Lassie. After owning dogs,...
I know its been awhile since I've posted on the board, been busy with life and my daughter. :) But I have not stopped doing research on Labs, so I thought I would post what I've learned and get some...

That is what I used to wake up to. :)
I do miss it, but it will be awhile before my next puppy will get to share the bed. Potty training will take priority! !
Shelley: I will definitely do that! I am amazed at how helpful everyone has been so far, it really is an amazing forum here. :image023:
windycanyon: That's exactly what I am doing. I literally spoke to a breeder that lets you pay an extra "fee" to get the first pick! Just, no. I will say, I am doing a broad search, and narrowing...
Thank you all again for your responses! And Charliebbarkin, thanks for the pics...they are beautiful! I still have a lot of researching to do, because I want to make the right decision. :D
:image023::image023:
That is where I plan to start, I am going to go to the Potomac show in April and hopefully meet some breeders there. I am less selective on the puppy at this point, because...
Yeah, I realize that which is why I had originally stated As soon as they are able to at least! :image023: I knew I would get a lot of heat if I stated that I ran with a puppy, so I should have...
The walks (actually running) are what I start at, there is also lots of play and training time in between the morning and evening walks. I used to take my pit mix over to play with my sister's boxers...
Yeah, I'm not sure why there seems to be such terminology about Labradors. I read on the Labrador retriever club website that they do not differentiate between the two kinds. Mostly, it has been...
Thanks Jen, that is what I was thinking. I do prefer the stockier-looking Labs. If I was retired I am sure I could manage the extra energy the hunting lines require, but as of right now any dog I get...
So I've been doing a lot of reading on Labradors and I wanted to ask about the difference-if any-between the English and American lines. I realize in the end they are both Labs and that there are...
Thank you! This is extremely helpful (as all of you have been) :image023:
I actually live in Frederick, MD so I am going to go to the show. :image023: It was mentioned to me in my welcome wagon post so I started looking into it then. I was just trying to not stick out like...
Yeah, I know all about the importance of focus work. My pit mix was overly excited/sometimes aggressive toward other dogs and there was nothing worse than someone interrupting you while you are...
Thanks, I was trying not to be the idiot that seemed to be hovering around everyone. I am not expecting to speak to everyone, but was hopeful if I could speak with at least one. I realize that it's...
I never thought to join a Lab club without having a dog, but I was going to contact them after Thanksgiving with some general questions anyways so I guess I can do that as well. It seems the more I...
Thank, I'm not in a hurry to get a puppy right now. I am doing a lot of research first, I already see some "debates" into breed particulars that I'm going to look into as well. There is so much I...
