There is a little story behind Shirley Ann. I am on another message board for Labs, and one of our members in Michigan runs a Lab rescue. She came on the board one day begging for foster homes because all the regular ones were full and Shirley and her roommate Vinnie(also a choco lab) needed to be re-homed do to a death of one of their owners. The poor dogs were being kenneled 9-10 hours a day. The remaining owner realized that Vinnie and Shirley deserved much better, than what she was able to provide after her husbands death. Willy and I decided to volunteer to foster them until they could find homes for them. I found Vinnie a great forever home withing a couple of days and he is doing great. At the end of the first week of fostering, I took Shirley to a prospective new owner for a meet and greet. I wasn't there 2 minutes and knew in my heart that Shirley Ann was NOT going to be living with that family. When Shirley and I got back to our house, Willy came out to greet us and Shirley Ann acted as thought she was seeing a long lost friend for the first time in a hundred years!! I told the wife right then and there that Shirley was home to stay.

OOOh ! That was a shocker seeing the title, but of course I had to look!
Those are some incredible cuties! Amazing that any of them sat still for the camera. My dog's first months are blurs for the most part.

Thank you for posting those- I've looked at them at least 10 times already.

DH came in the room to see what I was laughing at, we both love the puppy pics!!!
