Lucy






Lucy is our black lab. She is truly one of the family! She is 5 years old, we bought her from a man in the wal-mart parking lot when she was a puppy. She has been the best pet for our family. As far as labs go she is not normal! She does not like water and loud noises scare her! Lucy has always been calm, and has never chewed things up like most labs do. We have bred her and she has large litters and is a very good mother dog. All of this to say Lucy gave us a surprise! The other times we have bred her we have planned it and picked out the perfect boyfriend for the job!
This fall we decided to skip this cycle and not have puppies, but I guess Lucy had other ideas. We had a yellow lab roaming the neighborhood while Lucy was in heat. We thought we had been successful in keeping them apart, but I guess we were not! Last Thursday Lucy had 12 puppies! The kids were very excited, I on the other hand am a little less so. 12 Puppies mean a lot of mess! So if you know anyone who needs a great puppy we will have some ready in a few weeks. They are full blood lab but no papers.

  2. Those are the cutest babies! I had two labs and my neighbor "stole" them and I miss them sooo much! They were like yours--not typical labs in that they didn't jump, weren't hyper. I wish I had a fenced backyard--I so want one!
