| WHY EVERYONE SHOULD OWN LABRADOR RETRIEVER 1. He/She will be your best friend. 2. They love to sleep with you on the bed! (this would be Erin, she can't wait for hubby to go to bed.) 3. They have the biggest puppy dog eyes you could ask for. 4. If you train your Labrador Retriever while he/she is a puppy. You will have a well behaved, happy, socialized dog. Which leads to a happy and proud owner. 5. Labs make a great family dog, they also make a great single person dog, they adapt very well to any situation. 6. Labs are friendly and social dogs, they love hiking, swimming or just lounging with their people family. 7. They will think you are great no matter what. I have a magnet that says I wish I were half the person my dogs think I am. How true is that... I can do no wrong in their eyes. 8. Labs exceed in most everything you teach them to do. The only thing that matters to them, is to make you happy and of course the treats they get in return for making you happy. 9. Grooming is not really an issue with a lab. I bath mine about once every two months, they are pretty clean dogs. 10. Labs love to swim, love to ride (except for Bos) love to hike, love to retrieve, love to chase chipmunks and squirrels (not that they can catch them thank goodness!) Labs are just happy go lucky dogs that love to have fun and please their masters. |
