The Labrador Retriever

America's Most Popular Dog Breed




Lab Colors

The sweet-faced, lovable Labrador Retriever is America's most popular dog breed. Labs are friendly, outgoing, and high-spirited companions who have more than enough affection to go around. They are companionable housemates who bond with the whole family, and they socialize well with neighbor dogs and humans alike. But don't mistake their easygoing personality for low energy. The Lab is an enthusiastic athlete that requires lots of exercise, like swimming, hiking, and marathon games of fetch to keep physically and mentally fit. Labs are extremely smart, and food motivated so they are quite easy to train. A Lab will be your most loyal friend and fill your life with fun adventures and lots of love.
