We had the same mix several years ago. Mother was a mostly golden retriever and the puppies were black lab looking, so pretty sure that was the mix.
She was the sweetest dog, great around the kids and we had her 14 years.
Will definitely need pics.

Also thinking "Annamarie" because we vacation at Anna Marie Island all the time
Also "Betty," as in that song Black Betty.
Or Torre after Joe Torre.

You don't want too many syllables for a dog. Too hard to call them.

Trying to think of a female sounding vaccuum brand. If we'd adopted a male lab it's name was going to be Dyson since labradors are glorified vaccuum cleaners.  |

Our house was less dirty when we had a lab, she would immediately suck down whatever the kids had just dropped. I told DH I didn't realize what dirty people we were until the dogs passed. Our current lab confuses me, she has zero desire to clean my floors despite open encouragement to follow the kids around and invitations to come in the kitchen while I cook. Dude I am offering you a free buffet! |

Our house was less dirty when we had a lab, she would immediately suck down whatever the kids had just dropped. I told DH I didn't realize what dirty people we were until the dogs passed. Our current lab confuses me, she has zero desire to clean my floors for me despite open encouragement to follow the kids around and come in the kitchen while I cook. Dude I am offering you a free buffet! Seriously, when my last lab passed (bless her perfect, furry angel soul), and I dropped food on the ground I just stood there thinking "now what do I do?" for the first few months.
That said, I could have constructed a whole new puppy every week from the amount of fur that exploded off of her and on to my floors.

You could always name her Mercedes.
Then you can tell folks you "own" a "Mercedes"  |

My dog buddy (neighbor's dog) who stays with me when her people are away is half Lab but didn't get the food-on-the-floor-belongs-to-the-dog gene. She seems to think, "well, if the humans don't want it, why would I want it?" She doesn't want the piece of popcorn that fell on the floor when the popcorn was being transferred from the popper to the bowl. She wants a piece from the human's bowl. She doesn't want the piece of bread that fell on the floor, but she will eat a leftover bite of bread she sees you take from your plate to give to her. She can hear food drop on the floor and will come to investigate, but she never wants it.
On the other hand, she will scarf up rabbit droppings from the lawn and worms from the sidewalk. Dogs. Go figure. |
