Ritter Roo and Riley

I am another one who is part of the old joke, Labs are like potato chips; you can't have just one. Just a year after adding Betty to our family, we turned to LOLIN and found Ritter Roo. She is a beautiful pure bred girl with papers. She is very regal looking, except when she is drinking from the toilet or the bath tub.

Shortly after adopting Ritter, I joined LOLIN as a volunteer. I participated in dog washes, Green Fairs, open houses, anniversary celebrations and more. I loved my work with this wonderful organization. When I got the call to shelter a "senior" lab until she found a forever home, I agreed. However, I was not sure I would do well with a foster. Well, I was right about that! Riley became our third labbie house dog. I am now a member of the elite group called, "Foster Failure," and could not be happier. Bless all the members of LOLIN. To help our four legged friends is definitely a calling.

Puppy Heaven

Josie joined our family in October 2010. Since then she has really blossomed into a great girl. She must think she's gone to puppy heaven since it seems we get new toys every week. My skills as stuffed toy doctor have once again been put to good use since Josie likes to play tug with her 100#+ brother.

A Note from Jaci:

I came to my new home about 9 nine days ago. WOW, there is so much to do here! I have lots of toys and my very own crate to sleep in. My new family thinks that I am the sweetest little puppy in the world. I love to play with my big doggie sister and she is teaching me the rules around here. She even lets me share her bed sometimes. I get to play with lots of other puppies at puppy school. I'm still learning that walks in the neighborhood and car rides can be fun and the world isn't really such a scary place. I follow my mom and dad everywhere, and whenever I can, I like to snuggle up with my new family. I think I like it here!

Thanks LOLIN!
