The first meeting was not what we expected with him growling and viciously trying to attack our other dog. I was reassured by the awesome staff of Las Vegas Labrador Rescue that this could be due to all the extra stimulation of the event. They said to give it one more try at our house where there is a more calm environment. That night the president of the rescue himself and the foster parent brought Winston over. The meeting went spectacular with him at one point cuddled up to myself by the back door (I melted). <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">This year has been amazing with him and he has definitely become part of the family. He has never once since the event become aggressive but has become a gentle giant and loves to just go where ever the family is. Soon after he was adopted, we enrolled him in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sitmeanssitcorporateoffice\"><span class=\"s2\">Sit Means Sit Dog Training<\/span><\/a>. This training has changed our lives and opened our eyes to what \u201cobedience\u201d really is. We use to think it is a dog who is house trained and walks on a leash well, now we know that it is much more, even joining the family on a walk through Bass Pro Shops \u201coff leash\u201d. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Like a true Labrador Retriever, he is awesome with the family, even with our three year old who is not always the most gentle with him. Although he is much bigger than when we got him at six months old, he st ill acts like a puppy when it is time for a family outing. We could not imagine our lives without this special boy in it. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">We loved our experience with the Las Vegas Labrador Rescue so much we even rescued another. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Thank you for our furever Lab!!!\"<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\"Next month will be one year from when we first met Winston at the Pet Expo.
