Maggie's De Coco Cafe

After much thought and deliberation we have chosen a Chocolate Lab to join our family....We have been thru the entire realm of dogs...from Mastiffs to another bulldog...to another Bernese Mountain Dog...from puppies to older dogs...from shelter pups to dogs from a private breeders...of course there are no guarantees to anything in life... but we are very excited about Maggie...and think she is going to be a wonderful fit in our family...we decided that this year we would be getting another dog to join our family we just didn't realize it would be this soon...but the opportunity has presented itself for both Maggie and for us and we are going for it....Maggie is a 4 year old Chocolate Lab...she comes from a stellar breeder nestled in the rolling hills of Santa Margarita California...her first 2 years of life she was quite busy crossing the state of California showing off in dog shows and has 13 First Place Ribbons to be proud of...her last 2 years she has had 2 litters of pups...she has been great mother but had difficulty delivering both litters and had to have c-sections (see we already have something in common)...after the 2nd c section her current owners decided that breeding was not in Maggie's cards and had her fixed...Maggie has been resting and getting back on her feet after motherhood and will soon be ready for a new home....and this is when the rest of her story will begin here in Cheyenne Wyoming....we are very very excited...our paths crossed by chance...I was actually in contact with a different breeder talking about what we were looking for...and making possible plans to purchase one of her dogs later this year....somewhere along the conversation ..Maggie came up...see this breeder I was visiting with actually provideds all the breeding stock for a neighboring Breeder...she told me that she knew of a great female Chocolate Lab and that the owner wanted to place her with a good home.....and that she thinks it would be a great match...we looked at pictures of Maggie and were so excited...but we didn't want to get our hopes up...maybe the owner already had a new home in mind for Maggie...maybe she wants a different type of family for Maggie...maybe she changed her mind about finding Maggie a new home....after a hour or so conversation with Maggie's owner and a long chat with Collin finished by a good night sleep on it....we will be picking up our new family member later this month...above is a picture of Maggie we feel so honored and so lucky to bring her into our family...
