Thunder
We said goodbye to Thunder on Jan. 21st, 2010. He would have been 16
years old on June 8th. Twin Lakes Midnight Thunder was a great duck dog and
made some amazing retrieves. He was still hunting at age 13. He was a good
boy and we will sure miss him. We believe he's chasing ducks with Sunni now,
and those ol' ducks better watch out with that pair in action.

Reba
Reba turned 10 on the 13th of February, 2011. She was also an exceptional
duck hunting retriever, but her career was cut short. She has elbow dysplasia
and is now also totally blind. She has no idea that she has challenges tho, and
lives a happy life as the queen of the ranch. (1200 sq ft ranch home, that is)

Josie
HiHope Josephine Inbetween CGC (Josie got her Canine Good Citizen at 5 mos)
Josie will be 6 on May 19th or 20th, depending on which time zone you're in.
Josie is a great nanny dog to puppies I bring home, but her duck hunting career
never got off to a start. Josie was diagnosed with OCD in the hocks when she
was 6 months old. She had major surgery on both rear legs, and we hope that
we can keep her pain free for many years to come.

Darby
Darby... Foxfire Brown Darby, is the new baby. She is adorable and smart.
I showed her in the Labrador Nationals this year...we came in last in both her classes, but that was ok. We had a great time anyway. I had never shown a
dog, but now I can see how it could be addicting. Our duck season was lousy this year, but we have hopes to get her wittle wips around lots of feathers next season.

Buddy
Buddy...who is one lucky dog who my husband took in at the farm as a stray. He lives here now tho since the farm was basically destroyed in the flood of 2008. He has taught the labs how to dig major holes in the backyard, looking for moles. ;0(
Dogmom
We are so blessed to have been able to share our home with this pack of critters.
Be sure to take a few minutes to ready my story of Sunni...our second lab who was the reason we will always have Labrador Retrievers.
