Labrador retrievers are powerful dogs, medium athletic build, especially a strong tail. Females tend approximately 25 - 32 kg and males about 35 - 38 kg. Coat them short and smooth, it can be black, yellow or brown in color.

There are two types of Labradors, English and American, but the differences are small. English as a smaller, shorter dogs, with larger heads, and the U.S. higher. There is also an Australian subtype, which is less known.

Labradors are loyal and calm dogs. They are very intelligent, loyal and lively. They love to play and swim. We get along great with kids. Crave attention and need their sense of belonging to the family. Friendly in nature, never with a clear signs of aggression or shyness.

Because of its extremely good sense of smell, these dogs are often used for hunting, law enforcement needs (drugs), and because of the peaceful nature serve as guides for blind people. They love to play and learn fast, they choose the "occupation" big plus.

Coat them shorter, depending on the type of Labrador. They have special ears that overlap down and are usually darker in color than the hair (especially females). Although the outside looks strong and dangerous, are very eager to play. The main reason of Labrador as a pet is in his character: good-natured, friendly, loyal and totally reliable with children, but not so secure that it would not defend when it is forced to.

There are Labradors in three basic colors which are yellow, black and brown. Today the most popular dogs in the world, far more numerous than any other species - 2004. year was the fifteenth in a row in which the Labradors were the first company cynologists with 146,692 registered dogs. I do not like long stay alone, and sometimes tend to be very stubborn and difficult to be trained, but the number of such cases is negligible.
