We spoke with the adoption coordinator last night, and it went really well!! She said on average it could take about 2 months, and we also added our name to the puppy list. We're aiming for a yellow...

Happy Birthday!!

Thanks all! And yes! I did contact LRCP, so both rescues have our info :) Now to just wait to hear from the adoption coordinators! I agree, finding the ones ok with younger kids will be the hardest...

No, it's a new rescue group, "Lu's Labs" that was founded/started in February last year. A friend of mine knows the owners, so I've been watching their FB feed for photos and this lady popped up.

Happy Birthday Macy!!

Well, the sad news is, the yellow lab we applied to adopt already has a LONG wait list from people who were already approved adopters. So, our chances are slim to none for actually getting her.

So fun!! Congrats and can't wait to see the photos!!

I'm pretty sure she'll be great, too... and I'm getting my hopes up that it will work out :) :) It says she's great with cats and dogs, which is a really good sign already... not sure of her history,...

I'm back again, too... only because this time we actually submitted an application for a rescue lab. We miss our Lily and I'm starting to yearn for a dog again... fingers crossed we can work this...

Yep, find a high value treat! Lily wouldn't swim either past where she couldn't touch, and I thought I had tried everything. Then one day one of my in-laws were messing around and someone threw a...

Oh boy... that's too bad. By the time she realizes her mistake, hopefully it won't be too late! Maybe she misinterpreted the advice not to socialize before getting vaccinated with socializing in...

I also crated Lily at night until I could trust her ;) Around age 3-4, she began having free roam of the house at night (but usually wound up in our bed) and was only crated if we left the house for...

I'm trying to remember, but as a puppy, Lily was on a schedule early. She "went to bed" when I went to bed, in her crate, and her naps were wherever she wanted (sometimes in her crate because she...

Now I want to go swimming, LOL. Nice!!

ALL of this. I think my biggest underestimate was how much Lily NEEDED me as a puppy/young adult/dog. People thought I was crazy for cancelling plans or refusing happy hours because I had to get home...

Definitely having fun!!

Awww.. change is hard no matter what your age. Big hugs to him, and to everyone! Hopefully time will help.

Haha! Love it :)

I remember pet sitting for someone when Lily was around 2. Their dogs were friendly, so we brought Lily with us. They had a koi pond and Lily jumped right in! I had to haul her out of there, and...

Nice!!

OMG that is the sweetest story! 7yrs old to me isn't quite "senior" for a lab (Lily really had her prime for about years 5-8) but I guess for adoption they are! Thanks for reminding me that's an...

That sounds amazing. I've done whipped cream before in a pinch, and that was pretty good, too ;)

I've now added "check the Labrador clubs for adult dog postings" to my weekly to-do list ;) Here's hoping we find the right fit at the right time for us!

I got it ;)

Congrats!! I also recommend waiting until the puppy has all their shots (around 12 weeks) to enroll in puppy class. If they are going to be around dogs and public places, you want to make sure they...
