More family companions - Bozeman

As with all Labrador retrievers, Bozeman is another of the great four-legged friends and companions that are in my large family. He, like Ross, is a valued member of his immediate family group and he was also a good pal with Ross. He lives in BC and takes care of the little guys as well as the big sister in his family. That's his job.

In this photo he is walking in a salt marsh along the coast, looking up at his trekking companions. You can tell from his happy smile that he's loving being out with the rest of the gang for a big walk.

His sunny disposition (frankly I don't know a Lab that doesn't have the nicest personality - full of fun and kindness) makes him a treat to be around. Like Ross - he also makes himself available as a pillow and backrest for a child to rest upon while reading or playing. And he takes his job very seriously, making sure the little ones don't get into too much trouble and that any spills from sippy cups get licked up immediately as do cookie crumbs that fall on the floor.

There seem to be a lot of Labs or Lab crosses in the world - likely because they are such personable dogs - not necessarily the brightest lights but definitely one of the most loving and willing breeds I know. Always willing to play, to go for a walk, to catch a ball, or learn a new trick - especially if food is involved.

So to Bozeman, Ross, my Bliss and Spirit, my friend's Mysty and all the other labs around - we salute you! Great pals and family members whatever your age - dog or human!
