Happy birthday Dakota!

As many know from a few months ago my dog (Raider) died and it was a very rough thing for me and my family to deal with.
Through this site we adopted another boxer Dakota from Luds.
Dakota turns 1 years old today so I thought I would give an update how things have been.
Life with Dakota with our family has been great, she's an awesome dog !!!

excellent Ron. I miss not having a dog anymore, been almost 2 years now. I am stuck with 3 friggin cats, but they don't require the time involved for dogs, which is good at this time, but someday i'll get another black lab.

Hopefully this pic is viewable but I find it amusing. Having some laptop issues. Is she still looking out windows?

I knew that she would be ok when I dropped her off. Honestly, i was more worried about my other boxer but he is definitely a selfish little sob and I think is happy to have our house all to himself. LOL. He has been great and hasn't skipped a beat since she has been gone. I am going to have to bring her by to reunite them at somepoint though.

I think my other dog Dewey is relieved not to have any more leg take downs. She used to beat him up good.

That's funny, we used to have pit that would grab our lab/shep by the back legs all the time, not rough, just enough to get her down to her level.

There both gone now. Miss them both still, although our current pit is a real character and makes us happy.

A couple more from my phone.....

All of the significant moments of Dakota's life have been documented here. When I got her, Christmas 2009, when she moved to a new home, and her birthday. I think that's cool.

Hey Mike,
Yes she looks out the windows a LOT !!!
I'll get some new pics soon.
Let me know when you want to get together.
I had her on the boat for a quick ride a few weeks ago.
Didn't go far because I was alone, but she was great on the boat.
