about 10-13 years.
• A Labs litter size is 5-10
puppies.

5. • The Labradors country of Origin is
Canada but when they were found,
the were taken to United Kingdom for

Where do Labradors come
from?

6. What does a lab enjoy doing?
• Labradors LOVE to swim, and their coat,
being somewhat water proof, helps with
that, their webbed paws also help with
swimming.
• Also, they love to play any sort a retrieving
game, hence the name, Labrador
“RETRIEVER.”
• Labradors are also a “gun dog”, a lot of
people use them for hunting, which is
actually what mine are used for.

7. What were Labradors used
for originally?
• Labradors are a type of gun dog and
were, and still are, used for hunting. A
Labrador Is a retrieving gundog, so the
Labrador will go and get the game the
hunter shot.

8. Medical Conditions
• The Labrador Retriever is prone to skin allergies,
epilepsy, eye diseases and joint problems.
Labradors can be prone to hip and elbow
dysplasias which are potentially crippling
abnormalities of joint formation that can be
inherited from the dog’s parents or relatives. An x-
ray examination of both parents and as many
ancestors as possible indicating that they are free of
this abnormality will help you avoid this condition in
your pet.

9. Random Fun facts 
• The Labrador is the most popular dog
breed by registered ownership, in
Canada, United kingdom, and the
United States since 1991.
• The Labrador is also one of the most
popular assistance dog breeds in
Australia, Canada, the United
Kingdom, and the United States.

11. More about Labradors 
• Typically, Labradors are athletic and LOVE,
LOVE to swim, also are great with pretty
much all age groups, and are most of the
time are very friendly, although it depends
on the trainer, if you train your dog to be
friendly and nice and you treat the dog
nicely, they will be, but if you are using your
dog as a guard dog and training it to be
mean, it will be. So remember, the dogs
personality is kind of based on the trainer.

12. History of Labradors:
• The modern Labrador's ancestors
originated on the island of
Newfoundland, now part of the
province of Newfoundland and
Labrador, Canada. The founding
breed of the Labrador was the St.
Johns Water Dog, a breed that
emerged through ad-hoc
breedings by early settlers of the
island in the 16th century.

13. Labrador Hybrids
• A Labradoodle is a “designer
dog” that is a cross between the
Labrador and the Poodle, a
concept that originated in
Australia. The intent of doing
this cross-breed was to create a
good service dog suitable for
allergy sufferers , because of the
poodle coat, however, there is no
guarantee that this cross-breed
will inherit the hypo-allergenic
poodle coat.

14. Another Labrador Hybrid 
• some assistance dog groups use
Golden Retriever–Labrador Retriever
hybrids because they believe this cross
produces dogs with excellent
temperaments.

15. Yet again, another hybrid 
• The Chabrador, a mix between a Chow Chow and a
Labrador. These dogs have the teddy bear look of a
chow chow, but the personality of a Labrador. They
don’t shed, because both Labradors and Chow
Chows are strong dogs, Chabradors are VERY strong,
even when at a young puppy age.
