Archer is a male Chocolate Lab. His owner was staying in the area for the weekend, but the venue didn't allow dogs.
He and Hilda were cool the first day - no aggression - they just ignored each other for the most part. The next morning things changed immediately - now they are very friendly.
Archer, like most Labs, loves to play fetch. He has a strange habit of picking up multiple fetch items at one time as if he doesn't know which one would "fetch best" so he grabs them all. If they all don't fit in his mouth, he will pick up and drop the items repeatedly trying to decide which one's he wants to go with. It's hilarious.
He's a very easy going dog except on the leash. Terrible puller. I finally put Hilda's harness on him with the clip in the front - that did the trick (amazing how it always does). Besides pulling - he is great to walk because he doesn't stop at every little thing like HIlda does - I get some actual exercise.
Archer's owner came and took him to the river on day 2 - I thought that was very sweet.
