courtnek Posted July 16, 2005 Posted July 16, 2005 Freckles, do you understand the needs of a Lab puppy? they dont train themselves, contrary to popular belief. they need LOTS of trainig, LOTS of exercise, and then more training, and more exercise... they are excellent dogs, with the proper training and care, but they end up in shelters without it. PM me with questions please. I dont want you to be overwhelmed with thiis dog, which happens alot... 8) Quote

Mutt_Lady Posted July 17, 2005 Posted July 17, 2005 Congratulations, Freckles. Having a puppy must be one of the greatest feelings in the world. It is for me, at least. But ignore me, I have puppy fever. I want a puppy now. LOL I have a Labrador Retriever too. Courtnek is right; they are great pets but they do have to be trained properly, exercised enough and given the right amount of attention. I'm sorry, but I forget what kind of breed your first dog is. You should probably ask some of the wise ones here how to introduce a first dog to a second. They must be on neutral ground. I'm sure Court or some one else could help you with that... Good luck & have fun!! Quote
CincoandDahlilasgirl Posted July 17, 2005 Posted July 17, 2005 It's a britney spaniel. I think she mentioned once that they've been/plan on taking the dogs to meet and sniff eachother so it won't be as hectic. Quote

Sorry, sweetie, I don't mean to sound prissy but I believe that the dog breed you are referring to is called a "Brittany". When you say "Britney", that is the name of a human female, not the dog you are talking about. Quote
