Photo of the Day: Bird Dog Edition

I tell a lot of people that I'll never have another Labrador. They are just so big, aloof, clunky and full of energy, it can be exhausting. But if you've ever read the book, "Marley and Me" you'll know it's easier said than done.

Jack is 8 years old, in a dog with a lifespan of only 10-12 years, but you'd never know it half the time. He runs, fetches and walks his boy like a pup. His troubles arise in the early mornings when his hips bother him and he can't hear what you are trying to scream at him. Bless his heart.

But he's nothing if not loyal. And goofy. And downright loveable.

I tell people I'll never have another labrador, but I myself wonder if that's true.
