Benjamin

[Neemer]

He is one of Oliver’s littermates. His grandpaw was the #1 Lab in the country in 2020. He will be competing as soon as he is eligible.

Wow. He is a chonk which is great. Can't wait to see more! Congrats.

Cooper thinks he would be fun to play with!

How did week 1 go? Getting any sleep?

His hip-hop name is Grandmaster Poop B.

How's that four legged piranha doing?

 

[Neemer]

He’s growing like a weed and learning some tough lessons from the school of hard knocks. It’s cool watching him grow and learn. He’s pretty smart.

A photo now and then would be fun.

What a cute boy! It's amazing watching them grow and how their legs just grow overnight.

There appears to be a bit of a guilty look there! Not sure why. Labs are so good and innocent

And not necessarily equally. The other day he looked like a jacked up ‘65 Mustang.

This one still haunts me to this day! I thought I had a cheetah! 16 weeks.

When does he get his first RV trip?

 

[Neemer]

Not before he can sleep through the night. I need sleep to drive.

Lots of exercise is needed to wipe out those young engines. A walk doesn't cut it - they need to run and play. See if there is a Camp Bow Wow near you - he'll get to play with dogs his size all day. That will wipe him out. I think they have a 6 month old age minimum though. That company changed my dog in a great way.

Last lab got attacked and nearly killed at Doggy day care at age 1. I was skeptical to take Elli but I did and she loves it. She goes twice a week and she is super social. It does help with socialization and energy but pick your camp wisely. It still worries me but so far so good. It does give me two days of sanity a week from the master manipulator! Elli just texted me from camp that Benjamin should come, she'll protect him!

Benjamin has three “siblings” at home to keep him occupied. Two shelties and a fat chocolate lab. They get along well.

The chocolate is the daughter of the black lab we had to euthanize in March.

I really don't like where this is going!
