What a cute dog! Curious though, how much did she cost? I'm thinking of getting a lab and have been getting prices all over the place.

i would say $400 would be the most i would pay for a brand new akc lab puppy. Lots of people breed labs because they are such popular dogs. this keeps the prices down and the rate of homeless dogs up. You'll have about another $500 in vet care the firt year if all goes well, and more if it doesn't. Or you could just look at the shelter system in you area and adopt a dog whose already had alot of necissary vet care for about $250.

Great dog, I am getting a yellow lab (F) next month and was wondering what techniques/books/vids you used to to train your dog??? Thanks

[jerryficus]

I used clicker training from the time we got her (7 weeks old). clickers are a great way to communicate with your dog. Also i would recommend learning about dog body language. Learning how dogs talk to each other will help you better understand what your dog is trying to tell you. It will also help you give off the right kind energy and body language to your dog.

Good place to start with body language is the "Calming Signals" book by Turid Rugaas.

That is the cutest dog! I love your videos. I really like the one where she's really young and you're doing all the tricks real fast with her. That's a really good video!

oh wow very clever dog

my lab's version of fetch is to bring it back half way and tease you. XD

i love that once she comes to you she turns around to go grab the ball, but remembers you hadn't said she could yet XD
