Lab Of The Week
 
Name:
Samson's Ghost's Shadow Bear. I go by Shadow or Shadow Bear. I was named after Samson, daddy's black lab, and Ghost, who was mommy and daddy's yellow lab, and I look kind of like a black bear. Daddy calls me his "Little Buddy".

How old are you?
I am one and a half.

Where do you live?
Cleveland, TN. I was born in Knoxville, TN

Favorite food:
I am not fussy, but I do like chicken a lot and those little Goldfish pretzel's.

Favorite toy/toys:
Anything with a squeaker in it, tennis balls, rope and plush toys I can de stuff. I think my sister Miranda is a chew toy.

Hobbies:
I like to look out the front window keeping an eye on my street or the back deck scaring off squirrels who invade my yard!

Who is your best animal friend?
Miranda would be my best animal friend. I love Wizard and my cat sister Salem, but Miranda is the one I want to be most like.

Who is your best human friend?
Mommy! I am her Shadow.....literally. I love daddy and Carmen tons, though.

Please describe your perfect day:
Rise and shine by 6 a.m. I go lay on top of mommy and dig my face into hers to push her out of bed. If she resists or tells me five more minutes, I go lay down until her snooze alarm goes off and try again. I dont give up until she gets up! If she wont get up by me digging my face down into the pillow trying to kiss her face, I will lay across her, fall over on her, do funny tricks...you name it. I am resilient. Next, I run down the hall to the back door. I mean...come on....I Do have to do my business first. Then time to go sit by my bowl and wait to eat, do my business again, then start playing chase up and down the hall, dump my toys out of my toy box and drag them all over the house, nap alittle, look out the window, go outside and run around alittle, find someone to curl up with and when mommy has time, we go learn some stuff together. She is working on land cadaver scents with me. Later I get to eat again. At night, Miranda brings daddy my bowl to put my food in and I go sit and wait in my spot for him to bring it to me. Then I have to do my business and have fun with the entire family for awhile before bed time. I sleep on mommy's feet.

Do you like cats?
I love MY cat. I dont know about other cats. Salem came to live at our house about 2 weeks before I did, so we get along great.

Any bad habits:
I like to dig in the bathroom waste baskets and look in the kitchen trash can. I tear card board up into small pieces. I also de stuff stuffed toys and dig the squeakers out. If I have a ball that squeaks, that doesn't last long. I find a way to puncture it so it wont squeak anymore. Of course, Miranda thinks that is great...she seems to get annoyed when I squeak things over and over and over and over....I also am bad about eating pooh. I know...gross, but what can I say? Was that Too much information? Sorry.

What is your favorite website?
LABRADORS WORLDWIDE !!! I also enjoy Cesar Milan and Myspace.

Please feel free to tell us anything else about yourself
Mom is training me to do land cadaver scenting like my big sister Miranda. I am not learning to do underwater searches, however. I am very disciplined, hate to be fussed at, and learn quickly. I know a few tricks like left and right, putting my head down, keeping mommy cold if she says she wants me to lay across her, and I know how to go fetch daddy for mommy. I haven't learned all the neat stuff Miranda, my sister, has learned, but mommy is working more on scent training for now. She says there is plenty of time for all that fancy stuff later on.
I love people....think everyone who came to our house came to see ME, and I am a very happy little guy.
