Dear dog guy, I get the appeal of having a breeder dog, but in reality, dogs that come from breeders are often so inbred that they have a TON of health issues.
If I were you, I would look into a rescue organization that specializes in labs. There are tons of rescue orgs that have “high end” breeds that need homes!
I 100% agree, though you may still be young, she has a clock that is starting to drain. If you could see her being “the one”, like mother of your children “the one”. Then that convo needs to happen, like now. I don’t have the same reservations about your age that some of the other commenters have about being a parent. 23 is young, but it’s not 18 young (my mom had me young and I actually enjoyed having a young parent). You’re most likely graduated from college by now, so you probably don’t have academic responsibilities. So, I guess it depends on what *kind* of 23 year old you are, and only you can answer that. But, if you have any reservations it’s better to cut ties sooner rather than later, not just for your sake, but her’s too.

Grandex means nothing to me. I’m invested in the people. With that being said, who’s gonna start a gofundme for The Homie’s college???
