My First Puppy

Nice pair! You will have your hands full. :D

A fantastic book in my opinion: The Art of Raising a Puppy. I guess there's new, revised edition out there too. If you were local I could loan you my copy.

Do it the right way. Let the puppy raise you!

Well said. I'm worried that my wife is not being realistic about what it takes. She is ALL about this but I will have to remember to ask her that in the middle of the night when the little guy has been moaning because he misses his litter mates. Then when we go downstairs and he left a little surprise for us...Hopefully he is just a little angel and no training required! [ROFL2]

Easier than raising kids...at least you can reason with a puppy.

Great puppy! Congratulations!

I found the food I feed my lab makes a huge difference. It costs a $hit ton, but my lab gets Wellness Core and she is sheeding half as much as when she was fed other foods.

Love the new pup OP!

Thanks guys I'm pretty excited! Post up some Lab pics. I'm sure there are plenty of cuties out there!

Gorgeous pup!

I've got 2 siberians. We can make furniture when it's coat blowing time. I'll take lab shedding any day.
