Caleb and his dog Fontana


When Caleb was about 12 years old, we brought two new members to the family on board. Montana and Fontana (both Chocolate Labs.....females from the same litter). In this picture you will see Caleb holding Fontana on Christmas Day that year. If you look close you will see a red bow on her head.

Both Montana and Fontana were really good at chewing on anything that was wood. We had to wrap the furniture legs just to keep them from destroying the home. Fontana is no longer with the family. She was in an accident (hit by a car two years ago). Fontana was named after our favorite lake in North Carolina.

Montana was Tonya's dog and Fontana was Caleb's. It's amazing how that both dogs were so much like their owners. Fontana was rambunctious and always getting into something. She had to be the toughest and had to be in charge of everything. Sound familiar? Yep.....just like Caleb. Montana was always sedate and easy going.... just like Tonya.

I always enjoyed looking at this picture. I hope you all enjoy it.

BTW..... I haven't had any new communication with Caleb. When I do, you will be the first to know.

Jef Welch, (Caleb's "Dad")
