I lost my beloved golden retriever 7/2013, and replaced him with a very handsome and well-bred yellow lab from "Fetchemup" on NJH.... I love this dog, - he is very loving, still a little devilish at 8 months, but also very smart (at times) and amazing personality. I may even have to consider giving up some bow hunting days to get back into duck and pheasant hunting after about a 20 year sabbatical... This dog has amazing hunting instincts, and surprise surprise- he really loves to retrieve. I also think he will make a great blood tracker - a few weeks back I was out getting some firewood off the pile, and all of a sudden his nose goes up, and he takes off in about 18" of snow. I see him out in my woods, 150 yards away digging up something and by the time I got to him, he was chewing on the ribs of a coyote eaten small doe... That deer was under a foot of snow! How did he even smell that from so far away - amazing.
I do not know how this dog is still alive though - given what he ingests... I wanted to hear some of your dirty disgusting Lab stories to see if mine is right in line... Here are some of "Mako's" highlights (or lowlights) [rofl]
a) Drank out of dirty toilet water - he doubled up on #1 and #2, someone forgot to flush (won't say who)
b) He has swallowed and passed - 3 used "latex products" out of a bathroom garbage can (2 at once the last time, but don't ask - I have an 18 year old son and have since addressed the issue with a bio-hazard can with lid)
c) He is quite flatulent - and it really stinks!
I grew up with beagles, and recall them being quite the pigs as well, would eat anything, roll in anything, etc.
How are your Labs?
