SUGAR'S BABY BELLY WITH 2 WEEKS STILL TO GO!

Friday, August 16, 2013

DALE AND FARRAH! WE ADOPTED FARRAH TO DALE'S MOM AND STEP DAD, THEY HAD LOST THEIR LAB A FEW YEARS PREVIOUS AND WERE MISSING THE COMPANY OF A LAB DOG, THEY HAD TRIED SEVERAL DOGS FROM THE SPCA ONLY TO FIND THEM WITH NO MANNERS AND OR TOO HARD TO HANDLE OR TOO MUCH ENERGY FOR THEIR LIFESTYLE. FARRAH HAS ALWAYS BEEN OUR BIGGEST GIRL BUT SHE IS SO GENTLE AT HEART. WE MAKE THE AGONIZING DECISION TO ADOPT HER TO THEM. I WAS A MATCH MADE IN HEAVEN, SHE FIT IN LIKE SHE HAD LIVED THERE HER WHOLE LIFE. LAST WEEK WE WENT TO VISIT FARRAH AND SHE WAS SOOOOO HAPPY, AND SO VERY HAPPY TO SEE US. WE KNOW WE MADE THE RIGHT DECISION AS SHE IS SPOILED WITH LOVE AND AFFECTION! ADOPTING OUT AN OLDER DOG OR OLDER PUPPY IS EXTREMELY HARD FOR ANY BREEDER, ESPECIALLY THIS ONE! LOVE MY LABS!

DOG HOUSES ALL DONE AND FULLY INSULATED AND BUILT BY MY HUSBAND AND READY TO BE MOVED INTO THE KENNEL!

BUCK MOUNTAIN'S KENNELS

We have a outside kennel that is divided into 2 parts it has outside runs that go out the back nestled in some tall trees for shade. There are 3 insulated dog houses in the kennels and 3 more dog houses currently under construction. Our dogs spend a lot of time in the house and in the yard with us but they get this deluxe kennel when we are on our errands. The puppy house consists of a viewing room and 2 puppy rooms, they have outside kennels where momma's can go out to cool off and then when puppies are old enough they can venture out to play in the green grass. We also have a heated kennel with an outside run that comes out of our barn this keeps the dogs toasty warm in the winter. Just for note as so many people have asked this question, Why the tires on the roof? Well this prevents wind from getting down the chimney and putting the pilot light out on the furnace, it is the best way to prevent this.

RIVER FUN!

IF I DIDN'T HAVE DOGS

I could walk around the yard barefoot in safety. All flat surfaces, clothing, furniture and trucks would be free of dog hair. When the doorbell rings, I could get to the door without wading through dog bodies who beat me there. I could sit on the couch the was I wanted, without taking into consideration how much space several fur bodies would need to get comfortable. I would not have strange presents under my Christmas tree- dog bones, stuffed animals nor would I have to answer to people why I wrap them. I would not be on a first name basis with 3 veterinarians. The most used words in my vocabulary would not be: out, sit, down, come, no. stay and leave it alone. My pockets would not contain things like dog treats and an extra leash. I would not longer have to spell the words b-a-l-l , c-a-r, l-e-a-s-h, r-i-d-e, w-a-l-k. I would not have as many leaves INSIDE my house as outside. I would not look strangely at people who think having ONE dog ties them down too much. I would look forward to spring and the melting snow instead of dreading "mud" season". I would not have to answer the question " Why do you have so many dogs" from people who will never have the joy in their lives of knowing they are loved unconditionally by something as close to an angel as they will ever get. How very empty my life would be.

Grizz is our mature chocolate stud here, he has a super gentle nature and commands quite the presence, he has a keen eye and a good retriever and is a strong swimmer and has a huge tail as a rudder, yet he has a real labrador retriever goof ball side which makes us laugh each and every day here and there is no stick too big for him to pack around, a truly amazing boy. He is nicknamed Grizzly bear but his heart and nature are that of a big old teddy bear. Grizz comes from Canadian and New Zealand championship lines.

Hannah is out of our Ripley and Sugar. She has a heart of gold. She has inherited her momma's passion for the water, I don't think there is anyone who can out swim her (except maybe Grizz). She loves everyone and has her momma's amazing loving and gentle temperament and her dad's intellegence and incredible nose. Hannah is very playful and will captivate anyone's heart. Hannah loves to hold her mouth on your hand as she walks with you. She is a excellent retriever.

BUCKMOUNTAIN'S SHE'S GOT STYLE

"Bridget" is out of Lincoln and Madisyn. She has alot of funny lab quirks but she still thinks she is a lap dog. She has inherited her full body tail wag from her momma. She has also inherited the "personality plus trait" from her grandma Farrah and her momma Madisyn and we love her for that. Bridget truly has the kindest heart and is such a laid back girl.

Hope is the spitting image of her momma Bridget. She is so very gentle and she so loves to talk to her humans. She is a gentle soul like her daddy Grizz. This bloodline is the one with all the special little quirks and she is the great great granddaughter of one of my original females Farrah who was the quirkiest of them all. We are excited to add her to our breeding females.

TESTIMONIALS OF BUCKMOUNTAIN LABS DOGS/PUPPIES!

Toni from Whitehorse says, Since today is a momentous day, Lucy's birthday, I wanted to let you know what a great girl she is turning out to be. She makes me smile all the time. We walked the ski trails all summer and she has been with me on one ski this winter and was so good. Everything you say about Labs on your website is true in Lucy. She is so attentive to me it's amazing. There is a spot on the trails that always is challenging and she stays close by till we get beyond that point, the she romps and plays, always checking on me though. I see that you are expecting new litters and I know that whoever gets your puppies will be more than satsified. Thanks so much for Lucy. (Jack and Anna litter)

Joe and Cindy from Beaumont say: We absolutely love our Mia. Thank you, you guys raise great animals. She is a very loving dog who just loves people. The groomer and vet notice how healthy she is. She has great muscle tone, poise and pride in herself. Her coat is perfect too. She follows us everywhere all the time. (Casey and Sophie litter)

Natasha from Edmonton says: We just wanted to let you know Kahlua has become a special part of our family. Kahlua has become quite the smart dog and seems to suprise uo everyday with her intelligence. We all predict she is going to be bigger than our black lab. She is still cuddly as ever though. Thanks so much for everything. (Casey and Sophie litter)

Chris and Lois from Crossfield say. We have named our pup Isabella, Izzy for short. She had a lovely night and is bonding well to our family. This morning was bath time for the dogs, it was so strange for me to have a dog sit in the sink and put her head under the tap drinking water. (Riley and Farrah litter)

Dorothy and Barb from Calgary say, Just a note to thank you again for such a wonderful pup. We are having alot fun, gettting a bit of sleep and bonding well with our new little bear cub named Bosley.

Mike and Kristy from Edmonton say, Just wanted to drop you a note to let you know how much we are enjoying our gorgeous Miss Rio.

She had never heard of you but she was grateful for the documentation you provided-she had never seen anything like it.

Thanks so much. (Jack and Anna litter)
