About the Labrador Retriever

The Labrador Retriever is a versatile, medium-to-large sporting breed originally from Newfoundland, Canada, where it was used by fishermen to retrieve nets and fish. Developed further in Britain as an exceptional gun dog for retrieving game, it is now the world's most popular dog breed, renowned for its friendly, outgoing, and even-tempered nature, intelligence, and trainability. Labs excel as family companions, service dogs, search-and-rescue workers, and in various canine sports.
