Enjoy the Weekend Ahead!
Labor Day weekend is just about here but for pet lovers we call it Labrador Weekend. Labs make wonderful pets! Yes, they do need a lot of attention and exercise but what you get in return is a faithful friend. My lab’s name was Coby Dean, he was a golden lab and we adopted him from the humane society. He loved to go camping at our family ranch in southern Utah. Coby was about 14 years old when he went to heaven, his arthritis was painful, but now he runs and plays in heaven waiting patiently for his master’s return.
I found this cute video about a lab puppy. Enjoy!
Labrador retrievers are the most popular purebred dogs in the country, according to American Kennel Club statistics. The family-friendly pooches have reigned for the past 19 years, though German shepherds are gaining favor—they overtook Yorkshire terriers for No. 2. Golden retrievers and beagles hold the fourth and fifth spots. Of the top five, only the Yorkie is not used for law enforcement and homeland security tasks, such as border patrol, bomb and narcotics detection, and searches for missing people. —Caroline Winter
