Labradors are registered in three colours: Solid black, yellow (anything from creamy white to fox-red), and chocolate (medium to dark brown; originally called "liver"). Puppies of all colours can occur in the same litter. Coat colour is determined primarily by three genes, called MC1R, Agouti, and CBD103.
Labrador Retrievers are amazing family dogs as they're famous for their
friendly nature. With their bags of energy, they're
super outgoing and high-spirited.
They're also affectionate and loving, and adore being
around their pack of two and four-legged family members. They're perfect
if you and your family love active weekends outdoor. As keen swimmers,
anywhere with a river or lake is ideal for these cuties. While your
Labrador Retriever will love you forever if allowed on your morning run,
don't worry if you're not a marathon enthusiast - nothing can beat a
good old game of fetch! Find yourself a huge field and go back and forth
until your Labrador Retriever needs a rest (just remember to take
breaks).
They love to have fun with the family, especially kids (always on a
parents watch), and when it comes to other dogs or cats their zest for
life doesn't stop. When it comes to socialising Labrador Retriever's
joyfull character may not be liked by other dogs, so
it's important to teach them since young age the correct way to aproch
new friends.
Like their ancestors from Newfoundland, Labrador Retrievers are
intelligent . They're ex-working dogs, which means
they also do well as service dogs. Their dedicated intelligence *can*
mean that when they catch a scent, they're prone to follow it, no matter
where or how far it leads.
