The labrador has been America’s most popular breed for twenty six consecutive years. The breed is known for it’s playful and friendly nature. If you are considering a Labrador Retriever as your next pet, here are five things you should know.
5. Labradors as a breed comes in three colors, most commonly black, yellow, and chocolate. Black is the most common color for the breed, yellow is more often used by police and security professionals, and chocolate is the rarest of color for the breed.
4. Labradors were developed as retrievers who originally worked the Labrador sea. For this reason, any good owner, should ensure that their Labrador gets some water play. Weather it’s a local pond or a backyard pool water is an essential element for the breed.
3. Labradors are a hunting breed, they are athletic and intelligent breed. Labs will need regular exercise that allow them to burn energy. They are retrievers so a half hour of fetch would be a rewarding routine for your Lab. Labradors are also high energy, they make good jogging and biking partners.
2. Labs are relatively easy in regards to grooming. The breed does shed a lot, a good brushing twice a week so that your home is not covered in hair. The next two issue come as a result of the breed’s love of water. Labs who swim in the ocean or in a pool, will need a fresh water rinse, to remove salt water and chlorine respectively. Lastly, moisture in the ears can cause ear infections, so be sure to dry the labs thoroughly.
1. Labradors are gentle and friendly dogs, this is in combination with their intelligence are likely the reason why they are the number one breed used for guide work. This gentle and friendly nature means that Labradors are not good guard dogs. But the breed is intelligent and highly trainable, so you easily teach your lab to be a sevicible watch dog.
There you have five things anyone considering owning a Labrador Retriever, should know.
I had a chocolate lab, he came to my doorstep one day, I looked all over for his owner, he lived a nice 12 years
Noice
Awesome
Sorry man
I also had a chocolate lab come to my door who never left. His name was Wally and he had a broken front left leg. I have a black lab now, Chase, got him two weeks ago. 💯💯
@@whistlerpowderThat's frickin Awesome!! Really intelligent breed! The more you talk to them? the more they seem to wanna learn? My labs knew lots of specific words.(Last lab Tazz, had about 40-50 toys in the spare room) Like a certain toy introduced when first brought home? Or his pick at pet store? and then add it to the other 50? in his(spare) room while I'm out of view from everthing down the hall even, could tell him to go get? His frog, tiger, purple monkey? Etc...and he honesty would prance with whatever you asked him to get, out to me. I could go on all night about all 4 of my labs. Seriously good for you. There ALWAYS your best friend, no matter what! Whether you like it or not? Peace!!!
My black lab was such a good boy. I deeply miss him.
aww❤
My experience owning a blak lab:
1) The only source of UNCONDITIONAL love I've found on Earth, even when you're having a bad day without any self-worth they will love you more than your heart can take. The saying "be the person your dog thinks you are" is illustrated best by the love of a black lab.
2) They are not guard dogs, they are watch dogs. They will hear from a mile away and watch thieves come and take your things, then be sad they didn't throw the ball. Speaking of which...
3) They are great at catching tennis balls! Mine wasn't that fond of it, but was reallt good at it. The laser light though, omg, she went stupid-crazy over that laser light!
4) They have a goofy sense of humor! Hard to describe specifics, but they will make you laugh!
5) Cuddle is their love language. Some dogs don't like to be "hugged", these do! They will do everything you want to make you happy as long as it's rewarded with cuddles. And belly rubs.
6) When they pass, there's a part of you that you will never get back and you'll feel it for years. Despite this, I was so blessed to have been a "black lab dad".
RIP Nightfall 2000-2013, I'll see you again over rainbow bridge!
Your post made me tear up…I’m a first time dog mom of a black lab 9 month old. I love to take her off leash, literally over the river and through the woods! She has changed my life❤️
I lost my bud recently. He was 10 years old.
He was a dark brown one.
He got very weak, couldn't get up well anymore, wasn't eating as well, and appeared to have cancerous lumps.
RIP Tucker.
September 11, 2008 - May 4, 2019
You were an amazing, kind, fun dog.
@Little Blue Thank you very much 😊
He was the 2nd pet I ever had. Though the first one I lost. I also have a Pug named Buster who's somehow still alive at 15 years of age and doing quite well. He's blessed I guess.
Please check your local shelters for labs. Shelters often have young black labs that owners didn't know how to train. These sweet doggies need forever homes.
True I’m actually trying to see if I can adopt one
Tuesday 😄
@@PoptartArt did you?
You only need to know one thing about Labs. They are fantastic dogs!
hey Mark...please subscribe to my Labrador channel
Great work as usual. People complaining about how labs are "boring" or "vanilla" have obviously never been on a shoot with working labs
Yep. They're serious gun dogs (despite their current reputation as chubby family pets).
i've never seen a labrador with a natural protective drive (the one thing i really search for in a dog)
My male may he RIP, did have natural protective drive! If a service person came to fix something, he would like to gently bite at their pants! I had to put him on a leash in the house, I was asked several times to put him outside, however, he was my only source of protection. His sister, may she RIP, always guarded the door. My male was always laid back, good with children, however, if he didn't know you his first obligation was to protect me. He saved my life 3 times! Labs are amazing, loyal intuitive and adaptable dogs. My next will be a Lab rescue. I am still grieving. I guess I will know when the time is right.
I dog-sit for a female lab who is extremely protective. Sometimes to the point of detriment, as she can go nuts on strangers or strange dogs.
hey i'm fine Not every dog is supposed to have natural prey drive and not every owner needs/wants a dog with natural prey drive.
My Lab doesn't seem to have a mean bone in his body. He's daft and giddy and chews everything and sometimes he makes me laugh hard with some of his antics. The welcome I get is so heart warming. You are never bored with a Lab.
Also do not leave any food unattended.
thats every dog
It's called training. It's not a dog, Its the handler.
Labrador doesn't realize if they are full or not and prone to obesity
@@yangleigh8320 false, I've had multiple labs who I can free feed. It's about how people feed them, work them, and how people are breeding them.
Or trash
Barks when you go away but doesn't bark when strangers come in.
A. Dhooghe rip mine does both and bites strangers too
Mine barks at doors being shut in house lol
True
Mine barks but thats it lol
Yep
Best dog by a mile. Had two black labs, third on her way in December. Yippee!
I can attest to their love of water. My black lab absolutely loved swimming in the pond across the street.
With the vast majority of attention being put on stronger, tougher, and/or more high-driven breeds such as catch dogs like the American Pit Bull and guard dogs like the German Shepherd, it is just as welcoming to hear softer (for lack of a better word) breeds. This is a dog breed channel after all.
I'd generally call them less intense, not more docile. Pitbulls in my experience(working as a shelter volunteer for a few years) have very intense personalities. if they're friendly, they're intensely friendly. if they're stoic, they're intensely stoic. if they aren't friendly, they're intensely unfriendly. Labs I've met don't have that intensity. they're energetic and dedicated, but they're laid-back about it. there's definitely an advantage to not having that intensity, especially when it comes to being a family pet. my grandfather and uncle have had labs and they're very good dogs precisely for that reason. they're not too extreme in any way.
I find a lot of labs are bigger trouble makers than bullys. I think that many people who own labs are lax bc they are supposed to be "easy".
I Care You've never seen real working Labs. They are about as high drive as it gets. Only the show bred crap is docile.
jefferydbzcoo well yeah, they're not animal aggressive and are bred to work for humans
jefferydbzcoo no, true modern day APBTs were bred specifically for dog fighting. You are going back into the bulldog history, which is prior to them becoming APBTs. APBTs really can't do half of what labs do.
I had a black lab named Fofo he was the king of our house he passed away last week and I know he is in heaven.
I have a yellow labrador and he is very sweet and gentle with our family members and guests. The one thing I love about Labradors is that, they are always eager to play but always hungry. Thanks for this video.
I got my black lab Lucie bug about a month ago she is 5 months old and she fit in with my family almost immediately we love her
Labs are mostly likely going to cuddle an intruder to death
For the most part I agree, but I've had 2 different big labs (110 or so) that had issues with strangers or if someone walked past our house in the front, only if they were on our grass. We had a big bay window in the front and I remember them both really pissed off, hair up their back nose and teeth pushed right up against window barking very load and indicating their not happy. Very protective of my mom as well. Jokingly if I was being a mouthy teen, playing with mom she would always ask if I was done in the kitchen? Which meant she would call duke and tell him to take me downstairs. He would latch on my arm and biting down just hard enough to hold me but not hurt me. Was hard enough with my free hand on my other arm going down the stairs? The things he did were unbelievable. Way too smart. Miss him along with others. RIP Duke, Spade, Jet, Tazz..
I’ve grown up with labs. And I work with Labradors at a day care. Absolute lovey dogs and friendly
I love all three Labrador color coats, but I find that the black lab is best for me! Black labs are my favorite coated labs.
I have a Black labrador retriever named charlie and he is the world to me
How's he now?
Best retriever
Thank you! We’re thinking of welcoming a labor into our family. We are choosing this breed because we live on the lake!
finally lol i love this channel. my family will be bringing our new chocolate lab home next week, Remix.
These videos are excellent. Thank you!
loved the video and its spot on
Black labs are awesome. Mine passed away today. He was such sn amazing dog. He was very energetic, very friendly, playful, and a very beatiful dog. I miss him already. Having a black lab was the best thing that has happened in my life.
Thank you.. labrador retrievers are awsome!
Best all around companion... Along with my Catahoula Leopard were the best friends I ever had...!
Totally agree with this list! I love my Lab!!!!
Very good work thanks
This really helped because we just got a lab so we appreciate it.
Labrador has to be one of the best dogs around day are great around people and around kids
John O toole Totally agree! We love our lab. He is an old boy now (12 &1/2) but the best dog ever!
thanks for video Luv my lab's best dogs I've owned other than my Akita
such a good channel
please do the Australian cattle dog/blue heeler next.
Pure stress buster..
thanks for the info
Labs are one of my favorite breeds. I can't afford a pet, but I always take advantage of any opportunity to spend time with a lab or Bassett hound.
planning to adopt a blue heeler labrador mix! Super exited for Her!
1:42 love the remix
He was distracted the cheeks 🍑 in that skirt
They're cute. Hey, the dog is like gimmie that ball, please.
Things to know? You might end up installing a swimming pool for your dog.
Thanks I got a lab retriever yesterday
Best dog breed ever
Excellent music choice for the vid.
Love the video :)
P.S I think at around 1:45 you said "The next two issue come as a result of the breed’s love of water" twice :P
shoop-d mistake in editing
s'ok though, got to see that ass twice :)
shoop-d is
Man! She’s dragging a wagon
They are also the most kind dogs. They’re happy, according to my past dog. He was the happiest Dog EVER.
Some of the best dogs ever!
I really enjoy all of your videos, I love all the large dogs but I also really enjoy this. I mean honestly I'm just waiting for a border collie
I love the labrador! ♥
I love this breed
Labrador retrievers originated in England in the kennels of the Earl of Malsbury. They are descended from the St John's Waterdog that were used as working dogs on fishing boats in the Labrador sea.
I love my black lab, he goes everywhere with me. He goes to work with me the bank the grocery store everywhere. My wife and I don't have human kids. We have a black lab kid, that is very spoiled and very well taken care of.
"Water is an essential element for the breed."
loganq Pretty sure he means water to play in. Not to drink.
Tyler Gibson they also drink ALOT
The dirtier the better 🤣
We have a wading pool for our 6-month old. What I wouldn't give to take her to the lake & let her have some fun. But that's a downside of living in Florida, too many incidents lately of alligators killing dogs.
Because labradors are water dogs.
Best Dogs easily! I've had 2 Labs for 30 years from Puppy to age 15, best dogs, no competition
I accidentally paused it at 1:43 and diam I forgot what I was watching oh yeah labrador . Man I would go retrieve that
hahaha i just knew someone would comment on that. and of course it's the first one lolol
Woof!
Doing great job...
Man I have a labrador retriever she is very crazy
My best hunting friend.
I love labs they r super cool 😎 😎
Labradors have a tendency to get overheated.. hence stretching out on cool surfaces such as cement and tile, in the shade, as well as panting a lot. Water helps cool off especially on hot days.. Not a good guard dog but has the ability to alert by barking which can still be effective in a way (likely not a dangerous way). High energy can be expressed as pacing anxiously. Great drive for being active and doing things, ready to go when you are, pushy when restless, really thrives on regular exercise and routine. Very trainable and eager to please. Excellent appetite so keeping consistent portions is helpful to maintain a healthy shape.
i've had to skip/reject 10 videos before finding this one. great video
Amazing dog breed.
I had a black Labrador, he was really adorable but caused trouble when we first got him, his name was casket and he died a couple months ago of a brain tumor, Rest In Peace.
They also eat every fucking thing they see when they are puppies so be cared lol
Nicholas Fox Soooo true!!!
Exactly.. My 7months old lab eats whatever he sees
Lol my lab drags her food bowl across the floor and food goes everywhere
Nicholas Fox decon, twice
My lab puppy tried to eat a broken door handle and he always licks the cupboards that are low . 😂😂
Hey my name is alberto i'm a huge fan from you channel greetings from México
Best dog ever!
Good video bro
Why does his voice sound like a 'reconstruction audio' for panorama?
I have two Labrobulls. My first Labrobull I got was named douglas
Next dog i got was Douglas' brother
They are happy dogs now! And I really love my dogs
You gotta brush them everyday, energy is insane. You gotta watch for them being a heat cat
nice vid
thanks
hello. can you do a video on the Australian Cattle Dog ? Thanks.
When our lab sleeps we flip his ears over depending on which side he is sleeping in so they can get air. He’s never had an ear infection or ear issues in general.
My favourite labra retriever
Sunt foarte inteligenți si iubitorii
I know everyone thinks they have the best dog ever, but my lab never once chewed on anything in the house, rarely barks, sleeps still in her kennel, will retrieve everything loves the water and will chill all day or walk/run when you want, doesn't pull when walking and will walk by your side without a leash...yes best breed ever. Also isnt food hungry all the time, trust my chihuahua eats everything he sees...but the lab is very chill wheb it comes to her food...I have a German shephard dog love her too but the lab is just so lovable.
Mcastillo aww this helps me in my breed decisions
Melissa FreemanIm so glad! what breeds are you thinking of? i have experience with 4 different breeds... what breed experience do you already have?
Mcastillo All of this is so true about my lab Spike, except he barks at almost every single thing he doesn't know lol. On the bright side that makes him a good watch dog.
Carnijah Gaming - Roblox, Animations, and Vlogs oh yeah mine rarely barks but def will Bark at strangers if they get to close!
@Colt Bailey lol ain't that the truth... ...but I do own a chihuahua lol
A 6th thing you should know: They come in 2 types: Show/English Lab and Field/American Lab. They have different disposition, behaviors, and physical traits.
Nice dogs
Would love a flat coated retriever video :)
Your voice is dam good😁😁
I'm adopting a Silver Labrador soon and this video was what helped me determine whether I wanted a Lab or a Golden Retriever, so thank you!
Honestly as somebody who has owned both breeds, they are very similar. Both are great dogs ;)
Careful where you adopt your silver lab. Silver is supposed to be very rare. Breeders have recently been irresponsibly breeding for the color silver and ignoring health concerns to keep with the demand since its the current "fad". Yeah they look cool and unique, but the likelihood of it suffering from health complications is a lot higher than the other 3 colors.
Silvers aren’t labs tho. Just designer mutts.
I've got a Lab English Pointer mix. The way he came out , he looks literally like a Labrador with a black and white pointers coat, rudder tail, stocky solid build and everything. He's hard to keep weight off even with plenty of exercise, he loves the water , he's gentle and friendly great with everybody. He doesn't fetch for more than 5 minutes though. I don't know if Pointers aren't great fetch dogs or what, he acts to smart for fetch.
My brother has a chocolate lab...cutest and sweetest thing ever
So so lovely 💞💝💘
i love labs
I've had a few labs. very friendly with people. on the other hand ,very territorial with other dogs. that has been my experience anyway. still , I like the breed.
labs can be guard dogs my dog was never really trained to attack but his territorial one time a person went on the back yard and it came running and bit his hand and didn't let go easily and he's a full blood Labrador retriever he got older now but still is very territorial in the day and even more in the night
I have a chocolate labrador named rosy one of the best ways to describe her is man's best friend
My lab is extremely lazy , you’re lucky if you get 10 minutes of play😂. I would also like to add that my lab is only a few months old but has a very deep bark, so I’d say they’re very good at scaring away unwanted people. If you’re considering getting a lab I highly recommend because they have a very soft and loving nature and definitely LOVE water :))
I have Two Labs To that’s Why It was on my Recommend
Do a video on standard Poodles! 😋
Wow! Amazing dog.. Are they friendly to kids?
Jhonnel Eseo They are known as great family pets, i recommend letting your family meet the dog, with precautions taken of course, and find the perfect match for you & your family.
I see these everywhere in louisiana
TYYYY I JUST GOT A BLACK PUPPY LAB ;)))
but Labradors are sporting dogs bot hunting what????
We r adopting one I think by next week
please do border collie!!!
Edward Sanchez Now that's a true working breed.
What kills me is that they have never placed Best Of Show at Westminster!
Have a look at my Labrador and pug
There is an English lab which are the ones in this video and an American/Field lab that has been bred to be leaner with longer legs that have way more energy to retrieve ducks or whatever you want.
another good point would be the huge difference between the American lab and the English/European. American Labradors have high energy, slim and tall, and primarily used for hunting. English Labradors are calm, low energy, stocky and short, and primarily used for show. They both are great either way, I just prefer half and half.
Can someone please tell me what was the song playing in the beginning? it goes "this time we almost...". It sounds like an old song and I do collect old songs. Please!
when are you going to see Brad in New Mexico
Hey man !! Please do a video on Newfoundland ✌🏻️
Montreal Montel Warren
Mine was a amazing guard dog
