What is a Labrador Retriever?

The Labrador is a strongly built, medium-sized dog with a broad head and a distinct stop. The “otter tail” is a classic feature. The coat is short, dense, hard, not wavy and with a thick undercoat. The shoulder height is approx. 56 – 57 cm for males and approx. 54 – 56 cm for females.

The Labrador is bred in the colors black, yellow and brown. In purebred yellow Labradors, the color palette can vary from white to dark foxred. In addition, several colors can occur in one litter.

The “Field-Trial-Labrador”, which is mainly bred for work and has a slightly different appearance, is becoming increasingly popular. The Working Labrador is lighter and taller, has less undercoat and a narrower head with less stop.

Where does the Labrador Retriever come from?

The Labrador was recognized as an independent dog breed by the English Kennel Club on 7 July. Until 1899, only the color black existed until a yellow puppy was born in a litter. Its breeding quickly became more popular due to its success at dog shows. In later years, two lines developed, the show line with a more compact stature, and the working line with a lighter appearance.

What are the characteristics of the Labrador Retriever?

The Labrador Retriever is a very patient and even-tempered dog. Despite its actually very calm nature, the Labrador Retriever needs a lot of mental and physical activity. A Labrador Retriever has a pronounced “will to please”. This means that it has a strong desire to please its owner. This makes the Labrador Retriever a dog that is also very popular with beginners.

How is the character of the Labrador Retriever characterized?

The Labrador Retriever combines a calm, sensitive, gentle and friendly nature with an exuberant zest for life. His willingness to be subordinate is combined with exceptionally good obedience. He is an adaptable, devoted companion who shows no signs of shyness or aggression.
