Our Chocolate Lab, Elphaba, is in a class of her own. She's loud, stubborn, and has a penchant for eating expensive electronics. She's also smart, funny, irrepressibly affectionate, and doesn't have a mean bone in her body. I think/hope that the Marley film will not result in many Lab adoptions by unprepared people. They certainly can't say they weren't warned about what life with a Lab can be like! Then again, I knew what lovable monsters labs can be, but I was suckered in by this face...

That's her "Why yes, I AM on crack!" expression, and yes, I fell for her, even though I knew better. She's 3 now and somewhat better behaved. She no longer tears the house apart, but she still loves to embarrass us by crotch-sniffing our guests, fetching inappropriate items from the bathroom trash, and barking non-stop when she wants something. She gives Marley a run for his money, that's for sure! We adore her. :)
