Skippa at rest, guarding the road and watching the sun set.

4 days ago, there was 2-1/2 feet of fluffy powder where he is reposing.....6:30, the days are getting longer and warmer.

1. Wonderful photo. Lovely dog. Reminds me of my 100 lb Golden Retriever from 30 years ago.Sweet Brandy. Loveable clown.

2. The Skippa is at peak weight...70 lbs. 1-1/2 YO. Eventually, he'll add a few more.

He's trying to get on my office chair as I type this. Pay attention to me!. He's not a puppy anymore

3. Handsome dude!

4. Indeed, but......

the hair shedding is driving me nuts. Major vacuuming event happening soon.

14. It's starting here, the shedding, and I

am in love with an old black lab.

Your Skippa is a beautiful dog; I am totally impressed you raised her from a puppy.
We got our Maggie at about 8? Rescue, no one really knows.

16. He was 6-7 weeks old when I brought him home. If I get him a companion, it will be a rescue dog.

Thinking about it.

17. You'd be helping out two dogs.

I vote yes!

19. A crazy reason why I am really considering. The obvious of 2 dogs hanging out together, but - if I travel -

at least they'd be together at the doggie motel.

5. OMG, he is

gorgeous. Where do you and he live where there’s snow at the end of March?

6. Mid-Maine, right on the 45th Parallel.

Got slammed last week, but we've shed 1/2 of the snowfall already.

[AmBlue]

11. We've lost half here too

In NH. Supposed to get some more this coming week tho.

The handsome Skippa looks supremely satisfied with life.

[OAITW r.2.0]

12. He has no reason for compliant.

[AmBlue]

13. I see that!!

[Prairie_Seagull]

7. Intently focused on the sunset.

He is my kind of dude.

[Grammy23]

8. What a beautiful pup!

Lucky you! Lucky pup!

[calimary]

9. WHOA, what a gorgeous dog.

I swear, you could crop out the shadow at the lower left corner and re-size, adjusting the framing, and make it a christmas card. Frame your reddish-gold dog with green holly leaves and evergreen sprigs. Let the dog be the only color in the picture. Cuz the dog is GORGEOUS.

10. That ain't happening, but feel free to use! I can send the actual photo file if you'd like.

The Skippa is a handsome fella. The next pic I publish will be his air surfing in the truck. He's the back seat copilot that knows how to enjoy a 60MPH headwind.

[StarryNite]

15. I love it.

[MLAA]

18. Skippa looks majestic!

[OAITW r.2.0]

20. Yeah. he is photogenic. Not like me.

[niyad]

21. Such a handsome boy!

[OAITW r.2.0]

22. Thanks niyad!

Drives me nuts sometimes, but I love him to bits.
