Labrador Retrievers are well-rounded dogs, popular not only as a house pet but also as hunting, working or show dog.
They are the perfect family dog or companion.
Labs are our most treasured companion due to their adaptability.
The true Labrador Retriever temperament is one of an outgoing nature, kind, loyal, eager to please and non-aggressive behavior towards people or animal.
They have much that is appealing as a family dog: gentle ways, intelligence and trainability.
A Labrador is lively with a great zest for life with natural curiosity and playfulness.
They are extremely affectionate, loving dogs who prefer to be near you.
They are known for their friendly and reliable behavior with new faces.
Unlike many breeds, Labs usually share a powerful love for all members of the family without singling out a favorite.
They are gentle and easy-going and make for a good choice when looking for a dog that is good with children.
They also adapt well to a family with cats or other dogs.
Labs are easily trained and respond best to positive reinforcement for the desired behavior rather than punishment for the undesired behavior.
The latter only causes them to be timid and fearful.
The Lab's coat is short and dense and easily maintained, basically dirt and water repel and seldom becomes offensive.
There is little shedding with only the undercoat lost once or twice yearly.
Bathing is not a routine matter as it dries their skin and natural oils.
The Canadian Kennel Club and American Kennel Club register Labrador Retrievers in 3 color categories only.
The accepted color categories are Black, Chocolate and Yellow.
Our yellow lab puppies come in various shades including white, cream, traditional yellow and fox red -
all of which are accepted by the breed associations and registered as "yellow" Labrador retrievers.
The most popular of all the CKC and AKC breeds, the Labrador Retriever is a good natured, loving, and loyal dog that makes a wonderful family pet.
These dogs are intelligent, responsive, and obedient, which makes them one of the easiest breeds to obedience train.
The Labrador Retriever is well suited to both inexperienced and experienced dog owners.
They're very quick to learn, and are friendly and sociable, with a mild manner and a very amiable attitude.
The temperament and personality of the Labrador Retriever reflects their number one position on both the CKC and AKC popularity list.
They're full of energy, love to join in with a wide range of activities, and have plenty of love and affection to shower upon their family.
