Hey everyone, welcome to Labrador Retriever Lovers.
These pages were created mainly for the purpose of enlightenment.
Because we have had many questions about Labrador Retrievers on our
other sites, we have decided to lend our contributions via this site.

The Labrador Retriever is a strongly built, medium-sized, short-coupled, dog possessing a sound, athletic, well-balanced conformation that enables it to function as a retrieving gun dog; the substance and soundness to hunt waterfowl or upland game for long hours under difficult conditions; the character and quality to win in the show ring; and the temperament to be a family companion.

Physical features and mental characteristics should denote a dog bred to perform as an efficient Retriever of game with a stable temperament suitable for a variety of pursuits beyond the hunting environment. This breed can be distinguished by it's short dense coat and "otter" type tail.
