Pictures of Luke!

Here are some more pics of my puppy Luke. He is going on 11 weeks now.

Sorry they are late Flatfish :depressed: :grin:

These were taken out at Hagg lake. It was his second time in the water, and his first swimming! I tried to get him to do a couple of retrieves while swimming, but if he couldn't pick up the toy immediately he would just give up and swim back in. O'well though, he's still making progress!

Ska - Great looking pup! They're a blast to train. The first water is always a treat. I took the pup I've been training out to Roslyn Lake a few months ago for his first water. I threw a dummy just up to the water line - retrieved; then into the water about a foot - several retrieves. Then three feet. Then I figured what the heck and chucked it out as far as I could throw it. SPLASH! Just like he was born to swim. He did about 20 retrieves and we called it a day. He was a little older than yours, but WOW it was neat to see him take to the water.

You mean you don't have one? I thought everybody had a lab. :grin:

Without getting syrupy, they are fine, fine dogs. My family just can't be without one. [img]graemlins/hearton.gif[/img]

Love them Thursday pics.

The smell of warm dry puppy feet is one of the top 10 best things in my world.

Mark and the dog.

Great looking pup! Looks like a lot of fun ahead of you two. Not many things more relaxing than playing/training a pup.

i wish skein, all we have, or should i say my wife has is a big fat english bulldog that spends 99.9% of the time snoring so loud the windows shake. and unfortunatly our place is to small for another dog.
