The answer to the question “Why the Labrador Retriever?” too often seems to be “Why not!”
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.
Since there are literally millions of happy Labrador lovers around the world, why shouldn’t everyone love a Lab?
Given the breed’s good looks, trainability, loyalty, intelligence, etc., why isn’t this the dog for everyone on the planet who loves dogs?!
Well, there are reasons to believe that Labrador Retrievers are actually the worst dogs to live with… EVER!
Check out the 25 reasons why Labradors are the worst dogs to live with on the next page!

My black lab and Rottweiler ate drywall, and half of my jeep. It’s easyer to tell, what’s not been eaten by my dogs. I was not a happy camper, but I still love them

Absolutely agree with everything in this article.My dog had some special qualities like he was an expert at sleeping and no one should disturb him while he is sleeping especially me,he liked to cuddle only with my mom he was very close to her,hated bath time only my mom could give him a bath,hated cats but loved to pick on small dogs he was a spoiled brat but I am proud of him because he loved us all but now he is no more.Its been 7 months since he died but feels as if its been years.Their love is so strong that you feel their presence even when their gone.Love you tyson.
