We have a new family member and travel companion – Buddha Boy Jasper (Jasper) – an 8 week old Chocolate Labrador retriever that we picked up yesterday from White Robin Kennels in Princeton, B.C.
The photo (above right) was taken during the hour-long ride home, during which he cried just a little and then slept in my arms the rest of the way. We stopped just once at Stemwinder Provincial Park to give him an idea of his life to come… camping dog.
It’s going to be an intersesting day-by-day adventure, especially once we set off on our cross-country RV trip with Jasper who will be just a little over 3 months old at the time.
In the meantime, he’s already proven himself a good retriever — just watch the video to what this puppy can already do at just 8 weeks of age.
Here are a few more Jasper videos:
I love him! There is nothing like a puppy to bring out the best in people, is there? And he is absolutely scruptious! You are in for so much fun with him, Ros. And I am glad you are taking little movies of him; puppy time goes so fast. (of course you are glad about that when it’s time for potty training or your slippers are being chewed).
Happy puppy days!
Stephanie
Congratulations!! This is awesome. 15 years from my last chocolate and worth every minute. Choco’s are the best !!!
All the best,
Chris
He is just adorable, and I love the color of his eyes!
Ros that’s possibly the cutest dog I’ve ever seen. Labs are such big hearted dogs too. You’ll have a friend and a protector in Jasper for a long time to come
What a cutie, I love the labs. I’ve got a lab/border collie mix and they are so smart. Enjoy.
He’s absolutely adorable cute video congratulation’s.
Congrats Rosalind – he looks like a real cutie.
My parents have a Chocolate Lab and he has always been one of the funniest dogs we’ve ever had as a family. They have such personalities
All the best.

Hi Stu,
Thanks for stopping by… and yes, I find myself laughing all day long at his antics.
BTW, we’re heading out your way soon. Will have to connect and try to get together so you can meet him.
Cheers,
Ros
