Hi! Welcome to our site! We are a family from the Twin Cities area in Minnesota.  Our two yellow labs, Samantha & Mateo are 8 years old. I have had them since they were 6 weeks old and they are truly an important part of our lives. This website gives us a chance to let the world see what wonderful companions they have been, and also allows us to get the word out about a horrible disorder called hip dysplasia. In this web site, we will continue to put up lots of photos and stories of Sammy & Mateo's adventures. They have traveled the world and have lots of good stories to tell.

Please come and visit again!

What's New?
July 11, 2003  Samantha ruptured her left cruciate ligament in her knee. After XRays at the emergency clinic, she is also diagnosed with severe hip dysplasia with severe arthritic changes in her right hip.
 
July 15, 2003  Samantha goes in for ACL surgery. Prognosis is good. If we can get the knee heeled up, we are hopefull we can control the dysplasia with pain meds. If not, a new hip may be in order. Time to start saving money!!
 
July 26, 2003  Samantha is doing great. Has started touching her surgery leg toe to the ground. Mateo is definately missing his play time with Sammy. Now the hard part...keeping her quiet for 2 more months!

Please go to the Pets page to see photos of Sam, Mateo and all of our other pets!
