As you all know, Travis and I have a Labrador Retriever mix named Justice. He is 85 pounds of affection and loyalty....would defend us to the end if necessary and will allow all the grand babies to waller all over him and ride him like a pony.
He also loves to ‘fetch.’ Will bring you his throw toy and plop it down at your feet, gazing upward with golden brown eyes that melt your heart.
On a recent vacation to our little piece of paradise on the Tennessee River, Travis and I decided to try our hand at fishing. The dogs joined us at the foot of the hill. Immediately, Justice was troubled. As we cast out our lines, he was on alert to retrieve them from the water. It took a lot of coaxing on our part to convince him that we WANTED the lures to stay in the water. He sat faithfully at waters’ edge, eyes focused intently on the lines in the water, ready to fetch on a moment’s notice.
Justice, our fish fetcher.
