Labrador Retrievers are a unique breed. A silken coat is perfectly designed to allow this water dog protection from the frequent and delightful immersion in any body of water they encounter. Soulful eyes gaze up at their masters with an " I love you so much" . Bodhi is one of our dog companions that visits us from time to time. With each visit he brings oodles of love, entertainment, flatulence and immense intrigue into his psyche, with us constantly attempting to analyze and diagnose . Bodhi actually seeks out small rocks in river bottoms, and brings them to the surface; lining them up as if to display his engineering and architectural abilities. Bodhi simply exudes all that the breed boasts. Love, laughter, loyalty of lazy days lounging in the long summer sun. Hugs are always welcome.
...love the dog. love a dog who shows no interest in vanity, but rather seeks out and discovers the simple joy of a trickling mountain stream. love the dog who rolls in "perfume" that sends us running for the shampoo and a pail of water. love the dog who can take a nap whenever the mood strikes him. love the dog who has action packed doggie dreams. love the dog who has no problem seeking out the positive attributes in every living creature. simply put...I love the dog...

Dogs are great companions, although often times they need a few moments to "adjust" their personalities to "who is that dog in my yard" ! A few weeks ago, I took our dog Casey, on the right and our dog-friend companion Bodhi, the black lab for a run in the freshly fallen snow. As you can seen in the picture, there is a yellow dog in the left of the picture who had wandered into Casey and Bodhi's territory. After a few thunderous gallops, and some back hair rising (to make one look BIG), the yellow dog got the picture that he had wandered in to already pee'd upon land. Some sniffs, and a stand off ensued; eventually all creatures decided to a United Nation treatise and discovered there was enough room for everyone to play.
