Her name was Taffy. She...We used to have a Lab too. Her name was Taffy. She was also terrified of thunder. When we moved up to northern Alberta my husband wanted to see if she could be trained to hunt (she was a born retreiver) but she got so terrifed the moment the gun went off she literally climbed through a partly opened window of the car, covered with mud. <BR/><BR/>Later we had another dog: a Lab/Samoyed cross, Chinook. She had the sweet disposition of a Lab but the strength of a Samoyed. She was white, Lab-sized and loved pulling the kids on a toboggan-sled my husband made for her in winter. My son took her in the Mukluk Mardis Gras dog-sled race and she would have won it (against regular trained sled dogs) except the person trailing second stepped on the back of my son's sled and slowed it down.Wynn Bextonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08606284153866696343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10560969.post-1148927484395777792006-05-29T20:31:00.000+02:002006-05-29T20:31:00.000+02:00I just love labs!

Great post (sigh) and makes me miss labs who have graced me with their spirits then passed.<BR/><BR/>A friend of mine could just say "squirrel" in a whisper, and her lab would immediately jump to attention - he loved watching squirrels - lol.Bobbie (Sunny) Colehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10039523903143674505noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10560969.post-1148922186649441712006-05-29T19:03:00.000+02:002006-05-29T19:03:00.000+02:00I love Labs too !

I haven't had...Awww Sam, I've always wanted a Lab! I haven't had one because I don't have enough space for a dog in the apartment. My parents' neighbors have a black lab (Beau) and my aunt and uncle used to have a chocolate lab (Ginger).<BR/><BR/>If my parents' neighbors don't come home before dark, Beau barks constantly until they come home. One weekend they went out of town and left him alone (a neighbor came by and fed him) and he howled all weekend!<BR/><BR/>Ginger loved to eat too! I remember once when I was visiting, I was downstairs watching TV. I heard a really loud crash from upstairs and then Ginger came running down the stairs with a roll in her mouth. She practically swallowed it whole. Later I found out she ate *all* of the rolls that we were going to have with dinner from off the counter!Michelle Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01564045383886229526noreply@blogger.com
