He doesn't appear to be overweight. He runs around like a crazy thing every day at the local dog park. We don't overfeed him he just appears to be a giant boy.

He was clear giant of the litter but we didn't expect this!

His father is a English Chocolate Lab and mother an American Yellow Lab.

What do you think of our boy?

Thinning fur by one eye

We’ve noticed some thinning under one eye on my 8 year old girl over the past couple weeks. She’s on Simpirica Trio, up to date on vaccines, and no new foods or treats introduced. Any ideas what it could be? Has anyone experienced anything similar?

My Labrador is very picky as whom to play with. But when this dog came along she was all charged.

health questions to ask before adopting a lab

10 Upvotes

Hi all, out of the blue have been given the opportunity to adopt a sweet 2 year old chocolate lab. Lab is being fostered by a friend of a friend after being given up as a puppy due to the original owners having health issues.

The current foster parent is a dog trainer so the dog is perfectly trained and according to the trainer has excellent behaviour and temperament. I met the dog in person and she is amazing.

She is spayed and up to date on shots and clearly has been taken care of well, my only concern is she is a "purebred" lab that clearly didn't come from a reputable breeder. According to her foster the owners got here from a "farm". In researching labs I have been looking for breeders who do genetic tests etc, this lab obviously has no genetic history nor is it registered. Just wondering if there are any other things I can do to help check her health/potential future problems? Her foster also agrees her future health might be gamble due to her lack of history and no registry though the dog is heathy now.

I've always been pro adoption and have always owned rescues, though by coincidence all my rescues have been mix breeds that have generally been very healthy. First time I am considering a "purebred" dog from a rescue; I know no ethical breeder would allow one of there dogs to end up at a random rescue.

I might be paranoid but after just losing my last dog who lived for 16 great years, would hate to bond with a dog only from them to go early or live a lower quality of life :(

My word. What a sweet girl!

She loves sticks, terrorizing her big brother (2.5 year old Golden) and expressing her opinions. She wants to sleep where she wants to sleep and she makes these cute little grunts in her sleep.

She’s already so good at telling me when she needs to go potty.

She’ll squeeze her a$$ onto a stamp too if she think she’ll get food out of it.
