OMG!! Please can we keep him???

CONGRATS!! :D Emerson is adorable :) I'm so happy for you :D

Emerson is so cute!:D
I can't wait to see more photos of him and some with his big brother Malone too!:)
Congratulations on the new addition to your family!:)

Thank you so much! :D

We are just headed out on a W-A-L-K now, and I am taking my camera with me. ;)

We made lots of PROGRESS today. We had some freinds over for lunch. Lots of opportunity for socialization. He did awesome -- no cowering or hiding! Yay, Emmers! He got quite active and excited, too, acting much more like a puppy. :)

One bad thing is that because he was crate trained, he will NOT pee. :( He has only peed twice since we brought him home yesterday, and I'm getting a little concerned. I don't think it's very healthy to only pee twice in 24 hours. But I will monitor him closely and I will mention it to the vet next week.

Welcome to Pet Talk, Emerson!!!!

Gee, that was a great story to follow - suspense, drama - hey, you should write a book!

What a story! I am so glad it had such a happy ending.

Congratulations on your new addition. He is absolutely gorgeous!:) I just know that the whole socialization/shyness thing will work itself out with such loving owners as you and your husband. Good luck!:D

Oh, he's so cute! Congrats on your new addition! :D

oh my goodness!! just found the link to this thread from the one in dog general. what an amazing story!!!! I am so happy for you, Emerson is SO ADORABLE! I am sure you guys will have no problems turning him around and helping him feel comfortable letting his true personality show through. All he needs is a little love and guidance and his confidence will boost right up! I cant wait for more pics!!!

Congrats Anna! Hey, you wouldn't mind if I moved in with you would you? I won't be too much trouble! PLEASE!? Or at least come to Wisconsin and help me get a Labbie!?!?
