Hi there,
This is a message for the webmaster/admin here at labmedblog.wordpress.com.
May I use some of the information from this blog post above if I give a backlink back to this website?
Thanks,
Mark
Hi Mark: As long as you link back to us or http://www.labmed.org that is fine.
Very Interesting what you have going on .
Thanks so much for doing this! I miss seeing all the Lab peeps at the shows. I no longer have Labradors, and miss showing them, and visiting with the Lab show people. I do wish you’d update the site and blog more often so I can keep up to date with Labmed. Should you ever need help that way, let me know. I will be graduating from college in Dec. with an AS in Graphic Media Design, and anything to add to my portfolio is a plus. The biggest plus, though, is helping the Labs! Keep up the great work!
Thanks, Candee. Sorry to hear you don’t have any Labs to love right now. Hopefully in the future…..
We might be able to use some help — I will mention this to our Board.
