More: Eli is loving, intuitive, and my shadow who makes everyone in our family feel loved. He’s ready to play when it’s GO time and can chill when it's quiet time. He lost his brother last summer. Our Andy was 15 and was going strong with a love of life to the very end. Sometime very soon we will get Eli a new brother or sister. But for now he’s the only child and we shower him with love and affection. And luckily he has two buddies that come over to play with him three times a week, also sweet silly labradors.
