ColdSprings Labradors Here at ColdSprings we are hobby farmers, with a small group of Labradors in our breeding program.

ColdSprings has been a work in progress for the past 10years, and I am very proud of how it has come along. I have a small breeding program consisting of eight Labradors. All of which our house dogs and members of our family first and foremost. I have picked each of these guys because I feel they excel in some area that defines them as amazing examples of the breed. Everyone here has obedience titles, and their health clearances completed at the appropriate age. We have about two litters a year, with the main goal being that the pups in the end go on to do amazing things. My main goal is producing dogs that are sound- mind and body, a good majority of the go on to become working dogs- be it hunting or service work, as well as many are very loved family members. The pups are raised in a stimulating environment with children, other animals and lots of exposure to environmental ingredients the end goal being that you have a more trainable dog.

Last night was epic....

I was invited to stand and present about the Coldsprings Healing Paws Foundation mission.... service and facilty dogs... changing lives one at a time. Over 100 women... homemakers, business women, retirees all who believe in women supporting women.

It got me thinking, in the thick of this wild ride of training sometimes the drive gets washed out by the busy schedule, long days, never saying no to a need or an event. Sometimes right on the verge of this is too much. But then just when I am doubting myself humans rally and bring back the spark.

Then there is this simple picture of my sidekick... clearly hanging onto to every word in a hot crowded event. Listen to my mom... it reminded me that the reason we do all this comes right back to the belief to my core that all things improve with a dog...
Heart rate lowers
Cortisol evens out
Su***de rates decrease
Independence becomes less scary
Reading flows more easily
Doctors visits are not so stressful
And the list goes on...
The power of a working dog is absolutely endless.

Thank you for making Coldsprings so known, so supported... truly. 🥰

Years ago when I got started in dogs a man explained to me that our job is to be fully present and responsible for their quality of life. Three elements judge how a dog is feeling about life, because they do not live in the past or the future.
1. Eating on their own
2. Getting around on their own
3. Happily engaged with their people.
If two of the three are missing for a week without some show of improvement then they are focused on their ailment and not on enjoying life.

Today I made easily one of the hardest desicions in my dog years. I have been fortunate to have lost dogs to age and not sickness over the years. And I did not fully comprend the blessing in that until today.

For the last 10 weeks Summit has been dealing with a very raging infection. Eating her cartiledge and headed into the bone. It has not mattered what medical invention we have done she just continued to decline. Hiding, not eating, not wagging. So when the choice was to dismantle her face with the high likely hood that her ability to blink, swollow and hear would be the side effect.... I struggled because is that fair? Ultimately we put her under anesthsia and her heart didnt like it... pointing to the fact that her body was absolutely overwhelmed. My amazing vet allowed me to be completely present and as a team we decided not to wake her up.
Never in all my years of dogs have I felt so conflicted... but those three qualifications let me focus on her.

Was Summy this incredible performance dog, no, did she do all the things, no. She was a pillar of our household, first an foremost our snuggler and pet.. absolutely. She was the one everyone who comes here adored. She out produced herself, she raised kittens, orphan pups, toads (lol) a lover, a beautiful sweet soul. And her most precious gift to me was Hudson... and I cherish him as my constant sidekick because Summy raised a good son.

I am absolutely torn with how I feel
Was it the right call... my brain knows it was. But my heart is broken...

Rest easy Sweet Pea... we love you so so much.
