The depth of their connection to each other is truly amazing. They spent about three weeks apart right before they arrived in our home, and from the way they are glued to each other now, I can only imagine the agony of that separation. When they were finally reunited, they couldn't stop romping and jumping all over each other!During a recent visit to the vet to look at one of Grace's front paws (just a small abrasion that healed quickly), Gunner was beside himself for the five minutes Grace was out of the room getting a pedicure!
There was a time we were uncertain about having two new friends come live with us, but now, we can't imagine them apart.

Gunner lived with us, as his foster family, during his brief separation from Grace. I have a female yellow Lab, Charily, and while they got along, she clearly wasn't Grace and didn't understand how she was supposed to play. He did enjoy running at a nearby prep school, and had two speeds while here: galloping across the playing fields or asleep on the couch, bed, or my lap. Quite affectionate, he loved to be rubbed and nuzzled, and preferred to sleep with some part of his body touching one of us. Driving, he was always in the front passenger seat, keeping a vigilant eye on the road and impressing all who saw his handsome blockhead. I'm thrilled he's back with Grace, but miss him all the same. Labrador Retriever Rescue-CT, Inc. is an amazing organization and I am proud to be one of its foster parent volunteers. They did a great job finding the perfect home for Grace and Gunner.
