Everyone loves a pup!

[nic840]

I know there are quite a few dog lovers on this board so I thought I would share our new addition...Walter. AKA - Wally

Wally will be 8 weeks old on Saturday. My older guy (Oscar- 9 1/2 years old) is being the best bud he can be. The kids can't get enough of him.

Eventually Wally will replace Oscar as my hunting buddy but right now he is living in the lap of puppy luxury! Oscar was a great hunting dog but unfortunately his elbow has some bad Arthritis and he comes up lame after an hour or so. Wally has tough shoes to fill, O-dog is a Delta Certified Therapy dog and a mean pheasant hunter!

They are related... Wally's Grandma is Oscar's sister.

I was in the office the other evening...it got quiet so I came out to see what he was into and he was asleep next to Oscar. Such good boys!
Here are some pics of them sleeping together and one of him attacking the camera.

They are adorable together! What a cute face.

My ex and I used to have a chocolate(she is technically his, so he has her now), I never thought I was a lab person until I had one, now I love them!

Congrats on getting such a cutie and good for Oscar for taking him in under his wing!

Almost the reincarnation of my poor Taz. I miss them all so much.

Oh, the two sleeping together is ADORABLE. I am still very torn at getting another fur friend. I take loosing them so hard. I know I am still not over loosing Kallie....But, pics like yours makes my heart yearn....

Lab puppies are so stinking cute!! They just look so cuddly. Zen is right- isn't that the Cottonelle dog? COngrats on the new furbaby.

That is one nice looking little lab...I'd love to get my hands on him...feel what looks like a very solid construction!!

I love the way a new puppy perks up the older ones too....

congratulations....!!!

Too stinkin' cute!!! What an adorbale puppy (both of them).

Yes I was a little nervous about adding a new furr kid to the pack. I worried about my old guy not handling it well. He was my first baby and has taught me so much about discipline and love. He is not "old" in mind or attitude but I didn't want him to feel replaced....there I go putting "human" feelings onto the canine species but its hard not to.

Anyways he has always been a good uncle to other pups I have fostered so I wasn't too worried. The best part is that my 4-year old daughter has bonded with him in a way that has totaly surprised me. She is at his crate first thing in the morning, letting him out to go pee. Lets me know when its time to feed him. I am so happy she is connecting with him like this...a girl and her dog! She is learning responsibility and how to control her anger and actions around something so small...yet ferocious.(sharp little teeth!)

I agree he does look like the cottonelle dog! His breeder's website is www.waterspooklabradors.com if anyone is interested. There were 11 in his litter, 2 females blk/yllw, and 9 males, 5 ylw and 4 blk

Love my two human girls and my two canine boys!!!!
