Advantages: Loyal and loveable

Disadvantages: Can be naughty but we still love her

I have always grew up with dogs and the one I have now I love to pieces.

She's a labrador called Summer who will soon be four, she's abosolutley gorgeous, she is the yellow colour (there are also brown and black ones) and she has the hugest brown eyes you could ever know. Theres something so human about them that you know exactly what she is thinking and what mood shes in!

She's quite a tall dog as most labradors are but shes a bit skinneir then most her age as usually by then there starting to put on a bit of weight not are dog though she could eat and eat but how hyperactive she is I dont think she could ever put any weight on!

When we first got her as a puppy I can remember thinkng she seemed so quiet and lazy, she was tiny (exactly like those andrex puppies non the advert) but she made no noise at all and would just sit on your lap. When she did get up and run it was rathr amusing to watch as she galloped around the garden in a way whivh reminded me of Bambi! It wasnt until we had her a few months she got her voice and barked, it made the whole family jump!

Now though she's a bundle of energy terrorsing her way around our house when she's in one of her hyperactive moods running from upstairs to downstairs and back again slipping and sliding as we have wooden floors!

Since she's found her voice them many years ago she knows how to use it barking for food and walks, the most funny part though is whenever someone comes in through the front door, automatically she'll pick up her blanket in her mouth and carry it to the door making the most unusual sound that of what I can only describe as a camel!

She can be a naughty well more cheeky dog I suppose...Often then not she'll stand on her hind legs trying to get to food which is on the side in the kitchen swiping bowls and such with her paws. She even managed to figure out how to open the cabitnet draws in the kitchen where our bin as kept to get any remmanants of food their maybe, to stop this we ended up having to put a child lock on the door!

She's also constantly eating underwear if she finds it..I know its disgusting the amount of times we've cleaned up sick to find a pair of pants we've been searching for for ages! I often wonder if theres more in her stomach!

She's an incredibly loyal dog and when walking her she'll never go to far ahead, always coming back to you with whatever toy she has that she will keep dropping at your feet untill you pick it up and throw it back to her.

Labradors especially our dog Summer our hard work they have an unlimitited amount of energy or at least it seems like that sometimes, and they'll be times you wish you could control them more (you proberly can if you train them but Summer doesnt listen!), but every bit of energy you put into them is worth it as at the end of the day she jumps up and lies her head on your lap and those big brown eyes look at you and she opens her mouth her tounge hanging out as if shes almost grinning and it's like she's saying 'We had a good day today didnt we?' and that is just something I couldnt do without!

Summary: One of the most loving dogs
