We Love Chocolate Labs!
The Chocolate Labrador Retriever is our favorite breed of dog. Guess that is why we've chosen to have one as our family pet. Latte entered our family on December 14th. We got her only two days after our loving dog, Mocha, had to be put to sleep. Mocha was a wonderful, loyal and smart dog. She had just turned ten a few weeks before she left us. Mocha liked to go bird hunting, swimming, and enjoyed riding in the van or in the back of the truck. She was trained to get our newspaper out of the box, and bring it right to my hand. However, she did get lazy in her later years. Yet, even in her last days, Moke was on the move when J.J. got a gun out of the closet. The day after Mocha died, J.J. and I saw an add in the local paper for lab puppies. The next day, after church, we brought our little Latte home. She's not so little anymore......over 25 pounds. Latte is growing fast. She's doing well in her training sessions with J.J. She brings joy to our family, except when we have to confiscate a toy, sock, dryer sheet, etc. I'm sure you'll see her as she grows into an adult dog. We hope to have at least ten years with the newest addition to our family, Latte.
