***MEADOW CREEK P'UPDATE!!!***
The Chocolate male, two black females, the yellow girl and a yellow male are now reserved. Thank you to the 5 families who have already chosen their new pup! There are two black males, and two yellow males still available.
The pups, eyes, and ears have opened. They are beginning to walk around better, play, bark, growl, chew on each other, and their teeth are arriving! It is also time for another toenail clipping. They love to give licks with their wide tongues. Its pretty funny since their coordination is still way off!
Wednesday, Jan 30th will be 3 weeks. I will weigh them again, give an update as to their progress and they will have their first food mash. This consists of an egg, dog food, (diamond naturals, "extreme athlete") milk replacer, and water, blended to a mash.
We have a new page for our puppies pictures. I will start moving a few of the ones on this page, since it takes so long to load. We also have a few new pictures of Ranger and Goldie on there that turned out very nice.

Our Lab History
We got our first Black Lab, "Nig", in the fall of 1986 and have loved them ever since! He was the best I have ever known. Nig could hunt dove, rabbit, ducks, coon, stray dogs, and protect us from copperhead snakes! He was a small dude and didnt take nothin off of any other dog! I loved that boy!
He was a legend all around our area. Since then, we have kept Labs. Later on after Nig succumed to Endio Carditis, a disease he caught from a tick, my husband allowed me to purchase another black lab named Champ. He was a sweet loving friend. Loved to race us on the 4 wheeler and the horses! After him, We bought Charlie. Right away I knew this boy was destined to be something more than a country dog. He was just too smart! So, after careful consideration and unselfish tears, we donated our beloved Charlie to the "Dogs for the Disabled", service. Their trainer ranked him on her top 4th disposition she had ever trained for the service. We are so proud of him! The Lord above has blessed us so much. That was 8 years ago and he is still working!
We now are embarking on breeding our two top labs, Ranger, and Goldie. Upon their disposition and pedigree, and God willing, we plan to breed for service dog work and sell the others for companion dogs. However, we sure would love to see our dog's pups in the show ring or the field bringing back a duck as well!
