Murphy Dog

The year we got married we also got a fox red Labrador Retriever puppy. Our first dog and our first lab. He was the sweetest dog and we still miss him to this day. He left us way too early, at age 7, due to stomach cancer. I found a close-up I took of him when we lived in Iowa, so he would have been two or three years old. Kind of an artsy picture, but you can see his fox red color. I posted the picture on the side bar under the pictures of our current lab, Miss Maddie. We love her too, she is a sweet heart. Both dogs had similar personalities, but also different in a lot of ways too. Folks may differ in opinion but, LABS RULE!!
