One of the best dogs for children of all ages, Labrador Retrievers are kindly, good-natured, and take most things in stride.
Most Labrador Retrievers are very friendly with everyone, though compared to Golden Retrievers, many Labs are just a bit more conservative with their affections.
It’s been often said that dogs are the only creatures on earth that love you more than they love themselves. Well, Labrador Retrievers are no exception!
But sometimes, we take our furry friends and wonderful companions for granted. There are important life lessons that are sometimes easy to forget in our hectic lives, that all Lab owners must never forget.
If we want to pay back the favor and give them the best life possible, these 20 important reminders should serve you well as awesome Labrador owners. The last one (#20) brought me to tears…
Check out the 20 Things All Labrador Owners Must Never Forget on the next page:

I did all of these for my Hershey except for 20 (not on purpose). My heart is broken that he passed without us there. He was receiving care at the ER Vet and we were on our way to see him but he passed before we got there. :'(

Every dog I have ever had I was with them and held them when they took their last breath. It is the hardest thing to do……but they gave me so much joy to my life that it is the very VERY least I can do for them.
