  1. This was Great! So true Lab!
    So your mom is in the hunt for a puppy! Preferred female, it’s hard not to go for a Black Lab! But she wants cute! A mix like Ranger was would work! I’m not sure about a full healer or Australian Shepard? Don’t want a long hair like a golden or springer! So your mom will know when she sees it!

  2. My Labradors are not allowed upstairs never mind on the beds, and they know the sofa is for people not them. They are not allowed to beg, or be near the table when people are eating, and they have their own pad outside in a loose box with a run and an insulated kennel cabin. In other words they are treated as dogs. Are they happy, yes they are, they absolutely adore me. They like being in the house for a treat for a while, but they really like what they were bred to do, retrieve dead and wounded game. Oh and you can train them to recall!
