Boulder & Denver: A Heartfelt Reflection
What can I say about Boulder and Denver? I absolutely adore these boys, and my affection for them runs deep. They embody the essence of what it means to be sweet and nurturing companions, and they are undoubtedly the best adolescent boys we have had the pleasure to welcome into our lives. Their personalities shine brightly, marked by an endearing "velcro" factor that keeps them close to us, whether we are at dog shows or enjoying the great outdoors.
At dog shows, their loyalty is palpable; they remain steadfast by our side, showcasing not just their physical prowess but also the love they have for their humans. During our hikes, it’s a joy to see how they never stray far from us, underscoring a promise of companionship that is both comforting and reassuring. Their intelligence is evident in how quickly they learn and adapt to new situations, and their kind disposition makes them a joy to be around.
I am genuinely excited to see how these boys will do in the competitive showing world. Their journey has already begun on a promising note, as they have already earned recognition by placing in the ribbons at the Labrador Specialty in Atlanta, specifically in the 4-6 puppy class. Additionally, they have proudly become class winners, a testament to their potential as young stars in the making.
As we continue this adventure together, I am filled with anticipation and pride. The bond we share is enriched by their unwavering loyalty, and I look forward to witnessing how their love for each other and their promise to shine will unfold in the upcoming shows. With each passing day, Boulder and Denver remind me just how special the connection between humans and dogs can be, and I am grateful for every moment spent with these remarkable boys.
And just look at their pedigree... love love love these sweet chocolate boys!

And what is up with the Names?
Named after the enchanting Colorado territory, our story is woven with threads of love and a promise of connection that runs deep. It’s a bit of a long tale, rich with memories and heartfelt moments that have shaped who we are today.
Our very first chocolates, which we fondly refer to as the heart of our operation, were named Thor, Gypsy, and Holly. From the very beginning, these three captured my heart and soul, embodying the spirit of joy and affection that we aim to share through our dogs. As time moved on and they gracefully retired, a lovely family in Denver, the Coles, stepped in to embrace them. They now enjoy a wonderful life nestled in the serene mountains of Colorado, where nature and love intertwine effortlessly. Mr. and Mrs. Cole are truly unbelievably kind, and their warmth enriches the lives of those around them.
Kathryn, a talented artist and loving member of our Fairfax Pines Family, has immortalized our dogs in several of her breathtaking paintings. Through her artistry, we have a little piece of the "OG" Fairfax Pines forever captured in Colorado—an everlasting reminder of the love we have for our legacy.
If you are fortunate enough to become part of our family, you will discover that we have fostered many connections, with several families gathering together in Colorado over the years. These reunions are nothing short of exhilarating and joyous celebrations—an embodiment of the love we share that binds us. Imagine the vibrant atmosphere in the Colorado Rocky Mountain high, where love and laughter and the ole' rollie pollie Thor fills the air.
But certainly, we always make it a point to cue "Country Roads" by John Denver, a song that resonates deeply with our journey. It encapsulates the spirit of adventure, the warmth of homecoming, and the love that is at the core of our FFP family. So, as you dive deeper into our story, remember that every name, every celebration, and every moment is a testament to the love and promise that we cherish at Fairfax Pines.
