We love when our puppies come back for a visit.
We get to see how they have grown and hear their stories.
Chip is one of Kayla’s handsome males.

Chip has that irresistible “Labrador smile”.

Chip is one of Sammy Sweetheart’s handsome brothers.
Their mom is Kayla Copacabana who is now retired.

Outside in the snow.

Chip’s coat is thick and beautiful.

Chip is looking for the A Family Farm Labrador girls.
They were all inside the house.

Hmmm…. Chip smells something!

Chip listens to his dad. He knew the “down” command and did it right away.

Good boy!

Chip’s big sister is proud of him. She told us Chip likes to pull off gloves and hats
when she and her family are outside in the snow.

It was just one year ago that we had Angie and Sally in our pool
and here they are again!
Being water dogs, they LOVED the experience!

Angie dives in without hesitation! She decided not to wait for Sally.

Sally dives in with her “Flying Ears”.

Angie leads with the toy in her mouth. Sally is right next to her.

Angie brought the toy back to Sally on this dive.

Ida Mae went to the Veterinarian’s office last week
for her rabies vaccination and her microchip.
Dr. Cliff Heidinger checks Ida’s heart, ears, teeth, etc.
She weighs 26 pounds.

We were fooling around and turned Ida Mae into a different dog!
She has a dirty nose because she got into the mud right before we left for her appointment.

Ooh! That shot kind of pinched.

All smiles now.

Dr. Heidinger gives Ida Mae her microchip with her own personal I.D. number.

Ida Mae gets her nose up close to the microchip wand.

This instrument can “read” Ida Mae’s number.
Ida Mae is reading her paper work and looking at her rabies tag.

Just sitting and waiting patiently.

Ahhhh…we’re going home and Ida Mae is sleepy.
