Sadly, we lost our beautiful black Lab Chai this summer. She was 12 1/2 years young and we all miss her greatly. She had the sweetest temperament of any dog we've ever met. When Chai was only a year old I took her to play in a dog park and a woman stopped me and asked if by any chance my dog was from Oregon? She told me that her own dog was the sweetest Lab she had ever known and she came from an English Labrador breeder in Oregon who specialized in breeding very gentle dogs. She guessed Chai was from the same place judging by her calm personality at such a young age. And guess what? She was right! Best part of the story is that I recently contacted the breeder after Chai left us to see if they were still breeding these great dogs and found out that they are! A new, wonderful little Chai puppy will be coming to us from Thornwood Labradors on November 4th. We are so excited!
