 We have been so happy to hear from many of the people who got a pup from last year’s litters!  Thanks for keeping in touch and thanks for all of the beautiful pictures!  Please keep them coming!  We’re working on setting up a page where we can post those amazing pictures and include your very gracious comments.  Thanks again!

            Well, here begins the Rocky Mountain Labradors blog spot!  We’re excited to have this new feature on our website to keep connected and easily update readers about what’s been going on around here.  Our intention is to update this weekly--maybe getting that out there will encourage us to stick to that goal!

            Today the first puppy from Cody and Angel’s litter left to his new home.  The good news about that is that his new owners are returning customers, who also live in Colorado, and we really enjoy their visits to our kennels and know their pup will have a great new home.  The only bad news is that their pup had kinda been tagged as our three-year-old daughter’s… favorite.  She loves them all, but this pup seemed to have a special skill--he was pretty good at getting out of his ribbon collar.  We would find it somewhere in the puppies’ kennel, neatly tied, but otherwise obviously used as a chew toy or sparring match prize. 

            Our blonde little three- going on thirteen-year-old would always notice that someone was missing their “necklace,” and as she realized that it was usually him, she’d let us know right away.  Each time he managed to slip it off, she would tell us that she needed to play with him because, “he doesn’t have a collar right now and I don’t want him to feel left out from the other puppies!”  Dogs and puppies sure have a way of bringing out some of those sweet sentiments of human nature in all of us.  So, they kind of formed a bond, and yes, she’s “really going to miss Blue Puppy,” but she found consolation in the fact that since he’ll still live in Colorado, we’ll probably get to see him again.  We enjoy every litter we have so much--and can’t help but appreciate our little girl’s enthusiasm and kind-heartedness with these beautiful little pups.
