Zamboni, our chocolate Labrador retriever

Our Chocolate Labrador Retriever

Zamboni was operated on in December 2004, after he tore the ligaments in his left hind leg. The ligaments were replaced with nylon so now he can use it to go fishing. Just kidding. But he has six weeks of being good, i.e., no running, no jumping, no being so happy he bends himself in two and nearly explodes. Well, you know chocolate Labs and how hard it is to not jump, run or be too happy. But Zam is a good patient.

RETRIEVING LABRADOR DAYS
dog tales in prose and verse

Stories about each of his three Labrador retrievers and some of the other dogs and people whose lives they touched.

 Shaggy dogs, mutts, mongrels, three Labrador retrievers and a pet rabbit inspire the stories and poems in this collection. Pets of one kind or another have shared the past six decades of the author's life, and here are some stories that will make you laugh out loud and others that remind you of the escapades and exasperations you've been through with your pets.
