Our girl River

Our field lab River.

Technically not a great shot (very noisy, bad light) but her expression is sweet and she's a great dog (as are all four of ours).

Bonny pup, she appears to be deep in thought

Your dogs are gorgeous, Sharon, but I don’t know how you keep up with them.

River is an absolutely beautiful dog... Your Labs must be fun to live with! It had been years since I had a large breed puppy in my home. My Great Pyrenees pup is a darling and quite well behaved for a 5-month old baby! But, she she still keeps me on my toes.

Isn't it fun to see how puppies grow and how they are influenced by their genes yet, how each of them has its own very individual personality

Thanks for the comments. They are a great group
Yes, they keep me hopping for sure. This is a high needs breed line, so between free run time, search (nose work type games with food hidden), hikes, puzzles, etc. it feels like a full-time job. And they are semi-raw fed with a professionally formulated diet that I make myself, so about 4 hours on a weekend I am putting together food for a couple weeks.
Such a wonderful crew, they are worth every second of it.

We are certainly blessed to be able to share our lives with such wonderful creatures!
