We adopted a 7yr chocolate lab and enjoyed her so much we thought a puppy was in order. It's been the best experience. Have so much fun walking, running, ball chasing and snuggling. Love teaching the pup new things and she is so ready. I love their gentleness and willingness to learn. Fiona is 9 months old and is great granddaughter to Emma, they play endlessly, snuggle in the same dog bed. We love to play with them. They have tons of toys and really love the squeaky ones. I put treats in my pocket to help them remember commands. If they want to hit the sprinklers after a walk, it's a fun game Fiona plays. Even if I can't throw too far we still play ball outside.
