the window is kinda long and i open it always..so sunlight will come thru and even air ventilation is ok..my room got limited wire and i can fence them..

if its not good, is it ok if i keep it in da house for like 8 months and then oni keep em in my porch?

im thinkin to get a labrador instead of GR..its the same except for the coating only right ?

As far as I know labs and GRs are similar in temperament, although I hear labs tend to be greedier with food. As long as your dog is well exercised and gets enough attention from you I suppose keeping him in a well ventilated and sunny room isn't too bad - especially if you let him wander around the house when there are people around to supervise. One concern you might want to think about is if he's cooped up indoors most of the time, will he be well adjusted in terms of how he reacts to novel things - i.e. thunder, rain, other dogs/animals, traffic and so on? Make sure to expose him regularly to new things so he doesn't easily get frightened/overexcited.

im planning to bring it out every weekend to da park and enjoy a little bit..hopefully this will be ok..or is there any other suggestions?

my gf just said she wants a GR not a lab...she prefer furry animals..lol

should i just leave it whinning or carry em out when it whines ? my shih tzu when she was at her age, i just leave her whinning and eventually she will stop and go to sleep..but my GR, when it is changing position to sleep oso will whine a while then oni continue to sleep...haha

planning to put her on playpen in the next 2 weeks..
