Here are some pictures of our 5 week old labrador retriever puppy that hubby and I are brining home on Sunday! I can't wait! We are naming him "Lamar." I sure do hope Lamar and Hootie and Hobbs get along! That's the only thing that has me worried!

Now how cute is this??? Oh my goodness!! What a butterball Lamar is and I am very happy for you.

I had to watch a Lab puppy a few months back for the weekend. Talk about exhaustion!! However it was all worth it!

He is sooooo cute!!! We had a black lab and she was the best dog. We really loved her. Her name was Glen's Shada, kinda' like Shadow but using slang. I loved her name too.

Awwwwwwww, he is a sweetie!!!!! You are going to have so much fun!!!! Be prepared for some major chewing though. Our lab ate the lawn furniture, screens on the back of the house and porch posts. Just warning you so you can plan ahead better than we did. He'll be fine. Enjoy!!!!

Just saw the thread with pics showing the difference between an American Lab and and English Lab. I'm sure ours was American, though she actually looked like a cross between the two, not as thin as American, but not a stocky as English. She was the same coloring as the English in the pic. Her name was Sugar. We eventually had to give her away to a home with more space for her to hunt. She was not happy in the small yard we had to confine her to to reduce the destruction. And when she was in heat, oh my what a mess.

I've see those English labs. They seem to have a completely different personality and would make much better pets. I went on a business trip out of state, and while I was gone, hubby had bought Sugar for our girls. It was a surprise to me. I think the English is what hubby had in mind, but had not done any checking into the breed.

Your pup looks like he will grow to be like the one our lawyer has in his office. His is a really nice dog!!!!
