I have a yellow lab who is my hiking buddy. She is almost 7 years now and still loves to follow me everywhere I go--she's my shadow! I got to train her from a pup and she has her therapy dog certification (we volunteer at assisted living centers). I grew up with labs but love all dogs. I work from home and get to be around my dog most of the time which is such a blessing . I look forward to getting to know your pup!
