Their short, very dense and water resistant coats helped these dogs wade into the colder waters of the North. - Labradors were officially recognized by the AKC in 1917 in their sporting group. They are accepted in three colors, yellow, chocolate and black with no additional markings. - These are large breed dogs with an average weight of 55-75lbs and a lifespan of 10-14 years. - Because of their working dog roots, the Lab is a very active breed. This means lots of walks, playtime and anything else you can think up daily. They work best with an active family, especially with children to help them get out all that energy! - Even though their coats are short, Labs require brushing and de-shedding constantly to keep their undercoats looking nice. #### **This is only a small amount of information about our Labrador Retriever puppies for sale!

This Petland was super clean and well taken care of! It wasn’t too busy so we were able to see a dog. The workers there were super attentive and kept checking in on us and helped us pick the right puppy to see. They had a few hamsters, ferrets, and Guinea pigs. This location does not have reptiles or fish. I highly recommend coming here for all your dog needs! Posted on Google Andrea Johnson Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This review is for Destiny M. She is next level fantastic. Her demeanor, patience, knowledge was unbelievable. Their prices for dogs seem high, but do your research and you will find them to be competitive. Destiny makes the entire experience worth it. Loved her! Posted on Google Earl Saverson,Jr Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
