N+1 – where N = one labrador :) -possibly… I need your help! – Page 2 – Chat Forum

8 years ago when we moved here, we were in desperate need of some furniture. For reasons far too complex to explain, we returned with no tables but one labrador after a big old barn we visited happened to be owned by a lady with one pup left. It'd been returned as the family it was originally sold to ended up having a fur allergy [url5 Months in normal pose[/url] by [urlLeigh[/url], on Flickr Coincidence. Right. So now I wandered into the coffee roasting place in Ross and ended up chatting with one of the staff who has three lab pubs just 5 weeks old. One she's keeping, two are looking for good homes. Both currently sort of promised to someone else but hopefully one will fall through. Anyway my wife isn't keen. Never wanted two dogs, never really wanted one dog, but loves ours. So I need some arguments to convince here, so far come up with - Murf's eight. If we get a lab bitch it'll be like an old man marrying a 20 year old model. How happy is that going to make him? - Two dogs are no harder than one. Still walk the same distance etc - A golden one won't show the mud off so well ;) - The kids (15 and 17) will think we're brilliant parents - It's my birthday in 3 weeks and I'd like a lab pup as a present. Failing that, I'm just going to send pics like this to her inbox until she capitulates :) [img

So far we have about 50 pics and she's not seven weeks old yet! Going to be a hell of an archive

Awesome - I'd be happy with just one pooch.

The other half has finally come round to the idea and it looks like a goer next summer! Wahoo. We're waiting until then because the little dude should be a bit more gentle - he loves dogs but gets a bit excited / rough.

He'd be hard pressed to upset a lab with that behaviour! But yeah little kids can treat dogs like cuddly toys sometimes...
