Benji

Our little puppy has grown into a very large puppy! Now weighing 68lbs at 7 months.

He is still truly a puppy. Eating and Chewing everything he can sink his teeth into. He really has been a Marley at times. No joke...maybe worse :) But the fun we are having with him is worth all that. Maybe. Don't let me think about that too long.

Here he is in all his lanky glory about a month ago. Now he is totally filling out and we are beginning to see his beautiful form we searched so long and hard for when we were looking at breeders. He loves to chase and play with the boys, and they love to play with him and give him treats.

Weekend before last we ventured out to the pond for the first time. The times I have gotten out the hose, he has been deathly afraid of the water, and I was bound and determined to have a lab that loves water...what lab doesn't, right? It was a perfect morning. When we got to the pond we happened to meet another lab "Boss" there who was able to show Benji the ropes, and teach him a thing or two about who really is boss...which was perfect for our "energetic" puppy who still needs to learn his manners.

He took right to swimming, and fetching and we have been back several times with the boys.
