Lucy met Champ for the first time last night. He’s an almost four-month-old Golden Retriever and like all dogs, is simply precious. His people said that his mother had small hindquarters, but his father was very large, which may explain the odd way his back legs splay when he lies down. Unfortunately, Lucy was worn out by the time Champ arrived, but there was no shortage of attention from the other dogs.
Very furry, very leggy, very cute. And the attention span of, uh…me.








Champ is a cute one. I can never resist a puppy.

Just look at those back legs! They almost look like the wings you have to tuck back into your Thanksgiving turkey. He’s absolutely adorable; I think Lucy has selected a most delightful new friend.

Beautiful pup. Champ looks like a bright character. I hope Lucy and Champ will remain the very best of friends, as Champ grows up.
Awwww!! Just gorgeous! Love gangly puppies :)

What an adorable puppy…I’d say more but some gunk seems to have gotten under my keys and is making typing difficult…I really need to stop eating at the computer…

I agree, Janie. He is just sooo cute…am resisting the urge for another puppy, though!

Hee-hee, that is so funny, Lydia! You’re right. That’s exactly what his legs look like. And they were just all over the place when he ran. What a sweetie…

Hi Ana. I hope we see Champ again, too. Sometimes we meet the nicest dogs there, and then they never return. Kinda sad for us hoo-mans, but I think Lucy couldn’t care less.

Hi Svasti. Yeah, that’s a good word for him…”gangly.” When he ran it almost looked as though his legs might get tangled.

Hi drjay…yes, adorable he is. Shall I send Lucy over to help clean up the keyboard? No guarantee that she’ll spit out the keys when she’s done, though. Sooo, whatcha eatin’?

Hi AVCr8teur. Yeah, poor Champ wanted to play with Lucy, but all Lucy could do was gather enough strength to run him off. Lazy girl.

Hi Charity and I’m glad you liked that, because it’s true! I had to wait for Champ to get tired before I could attempt a photo. Nonstop movement!

Thanks Joanne…Lucy appreciates the compliment and I’m sure that Champ does also.
Lovely looking pup. I was just looking a photos of my golden retriever x, Jet, when he was 4 months, and how similar they look. No that he has grown, he now looks more sheep dog than retriever. I hope those hip joints don’t give Champ too much problem, as golden retriever often have hip problem.
