  1. We have a child lock on the toilet seat lid now because our Ollie will lift the lid with his head to get to the water in the bowl….and baby gates were all the rage in my house until he got big enough to just jump over them ( we dont even have children…I now have 4 baby gates like new in the garage…guess I will save them for the next puppy….hint hint honey!!!!)

  2. All true, but if you get a lab you must commit to play, play, play, train, and train, lots of energy, so if your looking for the laid back lab you friend has no guarantee, but after 2 years..laid back with a tennis ball obsession will be all yours. Most loyal, lovable dog ever! My girl completes me.
