We actually just got a new dog last Friday. She is a 9.5yr old yellow lab named Lacie Jane. She used to belong to my son's daycare person. Her loss is my gain!! She doesn't get on the bed/furniture, mannered and calm. She just lays down at your feet. At night she sleeps in her dog bed and stays there. The dog she kept is quite the opposite. Not housebroken, no manners, etc. I think we got lucky although she would not be my first choice since I've never been that fond of labs. She just may change my tune..she's quite the good dog!
