Questions & Answers
Labrador Retrievers are a class of working gun dogs, bred for their intelligence, trainability, loyalty and strength. They make ideal hunting, service, and search-and-rescue dogs, as well as excellent family companions. They have a strong work ethic and are eager to please, making them relatively easy to train.
Labrador Retrievers typically do not cause allergies; however, it is possible for people to be allergic to any type of dog. Factors like the amount of dander, hair, and saliva and the breed of the dog will affect the severity of allergies. The best way to determine if Labrador Retrievers will cause a person to have allergies is by consulting an allergist, as they can provide the most personalized assessment. Furthermore, spending some time with a Labrador Retriever at a rescue shelter or at the home of a breeder can provide helpful insights into how a person may react to them.
You should not feed Labrador Retrievers table scraps, as some can be high in fat and some can be difficult for a dog to digest. Additionally, human foods can contain ingredients such as onions, garlic, and raisins amongst others which can be toxic to dogs. Chocolate should never be fed to dogs, and any body parts like bones can be a choking hazard. Labrador Retrievers should also be fed quality, age appropriate food that is formulated specifically for their life stage.
Preparing your home for a new Labrador Retriever is a straightforward yet important process. First, it's a good idea to buy high quality equipment such as a crate, bed, toys and other supplies to meet your Labrador's needs. Make sure the crate and other items are comfortable and inviting for your pet. You should also remove anything dangerous or off-limits in areas where your pup will be roaming, as well as making sure that any of your existing furniture is puppy-proof and baby-proof.
Labrador Retrievers typically reach their full size at around 12 to 18 months of age. They are considered a medium-to-large breed, and the American Kennel Club states that an adult male Lab will typically weigh 65-80 pounds and be 22.5 to 24.5 inches tall at the shoulder, while the average adult female will be 55-70 pounds and 21.5 to 23.5 inches tall. While those are the average sizes for a Lab, individuals may be larger or smaller depending on the quality of diet, genetics, and exercise regimen.
Labrador Retrievers absolutely love to swim! Swimming is a natural instinct for this breed, making them great candidates for the water. Depending on the individual Retriever, some will enjoy swimming more than others. Labradors tend to enjoy playing in the water, enjoying the sense of weightlessness that comes with swimming. Learning to swim can be a great activity for Retrievers to take part in, and with their natural affinity for the water, they should be eager to do so.
Yes, Labrador Retrievers often get along well with other pets, if they are socialized correctly and are introduced properly. Introducing the Labrador Retriever to other animals when they are still a puppy is a great way to ensure harmony between them. If the Labrador Retriever is socialized correctly, they can learn to accept, and even enjoy, the company of other pets. However, if any pet seems timid, it's best to introduce them at a slower pace to reduce stress.
Training a Labrador Retriever successfully will take patience, commitment, and consistency. Start by teaching basic commands such as 'sit', 'stay', and 'come'. Begin by having your dog sit while you give him/her a treat for staying in the position you commanded. You can also use a verbal 'good job' for positive reinforcement. Next you can progress to having your Labrador Retriever 'stay' for a specific amount of time, gradually increasing the amount of time. Use commands consistently throughout the day when interacting.
