My babies...
Jul 9 2007, 3:16 AM EDT
I have a yellow short coated sister and a black long coated brother lab. They just turned a year old, and I got them from someone who had them in a small pen together without any human interaction other than to put feed in their cage, from the time they were 6 wks old until I got them 2 mos ago. The first thing I had to do was get them to know and trust me that I would not leave them and teach them to not jump on me. At this point, they have both learned to sit or stand quietly when I come to them so that I can pet them. I say give mama hugs and they each stand up to hug me and give me kisses, but no longer jump on me. I have scars from scratches i got in the beginning, but I consider them badges of honor from the days when I got my two babies and we began to know each other. I am now beginning to take each one and train them for sporting events, and lookin into therapy service and/or water/search rescue. I adopted an 8 yr old chihuahua mix with a cleft pallet who has a short lower jaw and breathing issues, and she weighs 2 lbs but thinks shes as big as the other two I have. If I could, I would take all dogs not wanted and love them. Im not alone in my feelings I am sure
