    yes, not a problem:)

    Farley the adult is getting along with the puppy pretty well. The puppy needed to be taught that other dogs are not a play toy. After that, it's been pretty good.

    The American Brittany we have is getting used to him too, but badger likes to chase her and that annoys her, so it might take a little longer than a week for her.

    Farley is getting along with Badger, now that Farley knows Badger won't usually try to bite at him. When Badger goes on a puppy rant, well, all bets are off.


    It's more Badger simply learning that other dogs are not play toys, especially ones that are almost 9 for the brittany, nearly 13 for the lab.

    Farley is doing very well for his age. He gets his deramax NSAID every morning and that really keeps him much more active than he might otherwise.

    We wanted to get another lab so that Farley can rub all of his good traits onto Badger. We talked about it for months, then we found the ad for Badger and got pick of the litter by chance. Badgers dad is a big blocky headed english style lab that is about 90 lbs. Farley is 86 lbs. The mom is pretty big as well, so I assume badger will be around 90 lbs too.

    I weighed Badger today. He is nearly 16.5 lbs now. Once he starts not wanting to chew on everything, I will take him in my ski boat.

    Here is farley in my ski nautique.

    He loves biting at the spray from the back of the boat. The only issue I have with farley in the boat is that he won't let me ski or wakeboard or tube while he is in the boat. He thinks he needs to save me. So when I want to ski, I have to leave him at home.
