Yes John BLM. I lost Parker at 15 years in Nov. then 3 weeks ago I lost Fox, also 15+ years. They both had a good run. Now the house is empty and dog hair free. I miss both of those but that won't stop me from getting another one or two.

2 Labs have owned me for about 25 years. My first, Tartan was imported from Scotland. She had about 1200 retrieves, most as a picker upper at a local club. More importantly, she made about 80 trips to Detroit's Children's Hospital as a therapy dog. My present dog, Daisy, another import, is 12 years old, and is nearing the end. Because I'm on the wrong side of 80, we will not have another

I’m so glad you have chosen to do this Gary… I couldn’t make that decision.
