Necedah was a chocolate lab. She was the best friend and companion to my kids. She also really enjoyed hunting with us. If there was a pheasant in the field, she would find it. If we were lucky enough to shoot the bird, she would happily retrieve it. Ducks, no duck was too far for her retrieve. She had a litter of pups a couple of years ago and we kept the runt. She is not as good as her mother..........but hopefully she will get there.
