I don't have lots of pictures of Buddy, here are a few:

On April 19th 2004, Joshua turned two years old, so we invited his friend Eddie the Yellow Lab to come over for a little birthday party. We went down to the Elkhorn River (below my new house), and found a sandbar to run around on. I didn't own Buddy at this time, but of course he came along anyway. Buddy was about five months old.

Eddie's a great dog, he and Buddy got along fine (Buddy likes dogs).

Buddy doesn't like to outright swim, but he loves to wade around in water.

As I said, I didn't actually OWN Buddy at this time. Thank God.

Although he has done this since.

Boy can a long-hair dog get dirty.

Here's Buddy at around two years two months old. We happened to get a light snowfall in late January, 2006.

Buddy likes cold weather. He's pretty uncomfortable when it's hot.

Napping on the couch.

Joshua was a little bit jealous when Buddy joined the pack, but it didn't last long. Nowadays they're good friends.
