Welcome to Farm Friday. I want to introduce you to Maddie our new Silver Lab. Maddie is the newest member to join my real life funny farm!
Farm Friday…..Our New Silver Labrador
About a month after our Bear died in April my friends called to see if I would be interested in a Silver Lab. Honestly, I didn’t know ‘Silver Labs’ were such a thing. As a kid we had a black lab named Smokey so I was familiar with labs, just not a silver lab. I know labs are known for being good with people and having a great disposition so I said yes. What I wasn’t quite sure about, was how Maddie would do with the rest of the critters here at Duke Manor, which has ended up not being a problem at all.
What a loyal companion Maddie is. In addition to being a wonderful family dog she is gentle and loves to play….with everyone. Something else she loves to do is eat. We will be monitoring that as I don’t want health issues down the road. Look at how photogenic she is….every single time I take her picture. She’s more cooperative then my kids are!
Every dog we have had at Duke Manor with the exception of Rosie Sunshine ( which Lily picked out at the Pet Store) has found us via the long dirt road that we live on. So I feel blessed that this is working out and that Maddie has instantly become part of the family.
If you have or had a Silver lab, I’d love to hear about your dog. Leave me a comment. To see more of my Farm Friday series click here.

I had a yellow lab growing up – Rex! Maddie is lucky to live on the farm!
Love the silver lab!! We have a White Lab Puppy and just love labs no matter what color!
Oh what an addition that beautiful Maddie will make to your family and the farm. Labs are the best…we miss our “granddogs” they were the best … Sorry to hear about Bear. I must say that I have never seen a Silver Lab…..have a great weekend Laura!
Maddie is a beauty! I am in love with all retrievers, their personality and loyalty are endearing qualities. Love the pic with that sweet kitten.

Oh my gosh. What a sweetheart! I love the photo of her with the kitty. We have a yellow lab mix. So sorry to hear about Bear who is now your angel dog watching over Maddie as she learns the rooes at Duke Manor Farm.
Laura, your new dog, Maddie, is such a sweet looking dog! You are all so fortunate to have each other! So happy you have her! She will bring you lots of happiness, I’m sure! Have a great weekend together!
Laura, what a precious new dog you have! Maddie will bring you all so much happiness! So glad that you have got one another! Bear would be giving you a “paw up” on your new Maddie! Have a great week-end together! Enjoy your beautiful new Maddie!
Laura , Maddie is beautiful. Many good wishes to you and your family. A pup makes a family complete!
Isn’t she a beauty! Your farm family is growing by leaps and bounds. I never heard of a silver lab either. I hope you get that hunger thing figured out. Miss Bailey wants to eat all the time!
Awwwww…I didn’t know you had lost Bear. He was young, wasn’t he?
I never heard of a silver lab, and Maddie is just gorgeous! Labs and Golden retrievers make such good family pets, but I think the labs look very strong and protective. Thats a good thing for your kids and farm animals.
Good luck and keep those photos coming!
