These two beautiful boys are Bear (Black Lab) and Duke (Golden Retriever), they are both rescues. Bear came to us in 1999 when I "retired" from Chevron. He was one of four puppies rescued along the interstate by Rae. Duke was literally dumped out of a vehicle on the gravel road that runs in front of our house. He was severely malnourished, and nothing but skin and bones (very little hair). He weighed about 39 pounds. The vet told me I would not be able to save this one - Duke and I proved him wrong.

Bear and Duke have great temperaments and are always good for laughs and hugs.
