Thanks all. To be honest I really didn't expect Summer to be placed. She is still very babyish in looks even at 10 months, and although has taken 1st and 2nd in a few Open shows, this was her 1st Champ Show, and I nearly didn't take her.. Poor Tia, she was just too playful and bouncy, and although she has had 21 class wins and numerous BOB's, along with G1's and other group placings, it was just not her day
Blue isn't a puppy, she is 21months, and as her owners were giving up showing and unable to keep her, I took 1st refusal. She is by Sh. Ch Stajantor Robin x Newinn Rain Mist.
Should have some decent photos soon, Photographer came out on Thursday, so should have them back sometime next week. What a carry on though, never work with children or animals lol

I had all of them photographed individually, which was fine, but then I wanted some group photos. Yeh right!!!!! Got them all lined up, one wandered off following a butterfly or whatever, One decided a blade of grass was much more interesting, another thought s*d this for a game of polo, by the time I had gathered the 2 waywards up, the others spread themselves out into the 4 corners of the garden. Photographer gave up and went home. 10 mins later looked out into garden, all Labs were lined up on Patio together, sunbathing, a perfect photo opportunity and not a camera to be seen. Labs, who'd 'ave 'em.
Hi Vidhya, yes I have 8 Labs..... Emma 6years, Rosie 5years, Penny 4.5years, Blue 21months, Bailey and Tia 15mths, Summer 10mths, and little Ellie who is 8ths. Emma and Bailey are Yellow, the rest are Black.
I cope very easily, When I have had enough of the rablle, I gather my thoughts, make a cup of tea, pick up my book, and climb into the puppy pen where they cant reach me lol

. Only joking, but it does sound like a good idea sometimes......
