Dakota
Born: April 7, 2002
Dakota was our third dog. He was born in Flint, Michigan and came from Laura Michaels at Woodhaven Labradors. She warned that he was the alpha male and most difficult of the litter and that our lab experience would make us good owners. She wasn't kidding. Head strong and assertive, he's also smart as a whip which doesn't necessarily make things any easier. Still, he's got a great personality and we love him. So far, he's proven to be the best walker and car rider we've had and, of all the pups we've raised, he's the first that we've been able to walk off-leash.
The first two photos below are some of the early photos that Laura posted on the Woodhaven website and kindly granted me permission to re-post here. The rest were taken here at home. Stay tuned for more stories and photos.
