  1. My children are no longer infants. They have spent plenty of time with Uncle Simon’s Labrador Retriever, Kruger. They have also learned about animal companions and how to take care of them. While my kids have been begging for a long time for a dog, I wanted to make certain that whether me and my husband were really ready to assume responsibility for the life of another living being that will reside in our home. After lengthy discussions regarding the pros and cons of owning a Labrador Retriever, I have owned a Labrador retriever named Crusoe. Introducing Crusoe Into the Family
