That's a nice looking black dog ! Brings back fond memories.
He/she will make a fine fishin' dog.
Name ?
Edit:
Taken from his novel, Chesapeake, about the arrival of a new breed of dog to the Maryland Marshes to challenge the reign of the Chesapeake Bay retriever as a consummate retriever.
"A moment later the stevedore appeared on deck leading by a leash one of the most handsome dogs ever seen in Maryland. He was jet-black, sturdy in his front quarters, sleek and powerful in his hind, with a face so intelligent that it seemed he might speak at any moment. His movements were quick, his dark eyes following every development nearby, yet his disposition appeared so equable he seemed always about to smile.
"'He's called a Labrador,' Lightfoot said. 'Finest huntin' dog ever developed'"
I've been adopted by both breeds and I love them both. Michener desribes them well in "The Watermen".

Good name. Has a nice ring to it on low, medium and high volume. Hopefully, not too much volume will be needed

I agree Kenna is a fine loking pup. Tye has done very well so far tonight. He's curious about everything and seems to be adjusting to life without his big family very well. Maybe we can do a reunion soon.

Forgot to mention, have plenty of cork grips available for teething purposes, preferably grade AAAA . Also, soft reel handles are a big favorite.

Can't wait until Saturday...
THEN DON'T come get him tonight.... as of a few minutes ago I am down to the last three and one of those isn't leaving and the other is going tonight. I can't wait to get the giant puppy toilet/kennel out of the house.
