Always tough to say farewell. As newly-weds, we had DUSK and DAWN. They were with us 15 years. We waited many years before bringing in TAZ and FOXY for 10 years. Then, we waited a couple years and now have CHARLIE and KYRA. We will be very oldly-weds when their time comes. If we are able, any that follow definitely won't be puppies. A senior adoption would be considered. Would be nice having the K9s taking care of us for a change.

Wish you well Dean and be careful. There are also non-working labs out there.
