I wish I knew how to add a picture of my chocolate puppy! We've had her just three weeks so totally know how you are feeling. We've never had a lab and I have never had a dog with a tail! . Hah I know how you feel. My dogs growing up had short stubby tails. We would love to meet your puppy! If you use the Tapatalk app to access the forum, it’s super simple to add pics. Adding pics is all I use it for; otherwise I use the web browser.

I have a 6 month old border collie puppy here- and I hate puppies!
Had a ton as fosters, but never had a puppy that was mine. I am pretty sure we are foster failing mostly because she sucks so much I cannot be confident I can find her an appropriate home that isn’t mine. I have one accidental border collie already (I adopted a cute black and white mix, lol amd got a border collie by accident) and well, in for a penny, in for a pound.
Something to think about, not to be a downer- had many many labs that were abandoned at the year old/18 mo th mark. These first years can be really hard. Funny thing is, that’s just when they start to calm down so hold steady and don’t give up.

Thanks for the warning and encouragement. We have had labs for 20 years so I do have some experience. But Dh was the one who always did the bulk of the training.

If she's crying at night, or having trouble sleeping download a white noise app. I'm a newborn photographer and when we got our puppy last summer I put on my white noise I use for newborn sessions and it worked like a charm. I have an app from the app store called "white baby noise". Then I put it on the doppler ultrasound selection. We are getting another puppy in a few weeks (crazy I know) and plan to use it again. I'm hoping the new puppy likes it too.

I had picked up the softest, fluffiest, fuzziest bed from Walmart of all places. I put it in there and laid her in on it when she was tired and she snuggled right in. When she wakes up at night I take her potty and put her right back in and she settles back to sleep. She looks for it during the day when she’s ready to sleep. I had it upstairs and she fell asleep with her head inside one of dd’s Uggs. LOL
