He is gorgeous! And Welcome! I have a 13 1/2 year old lab and a 9 month old lab - and I am figuring it all out as well. Stig looks so much like my parent's dog, Hershey - who we rescued at 9 months and who is currently staying with me again while they travel. I LOVE him - he is such a sweet heart - as is my older English lab. My 9 month old field lab; however, is a total scamp - so time will tell how this crazy one turns out! Have fun with your huge and beautiful dog. He must eat a TON!
