I obtained my male golden retriever when he was 13 months old. He was a surrendered pup from a family that found him too much work. Lucky for me they decided to do so. He came to me with a full coat. I belong to a golden retriever dog forum and the breeder was surprised to see his full coat. So, I believe it depends on the individual dog. My dog, Farley, has an awesome coat. I have no idea about his breeding but he obviously has great parents. I was surprised to find that he doesn't take a whole lot of grooming either. A good brushing once a week seems to be enough. His tail and leg feathers are lush and full and he will be going to the groomer soon to get trimmed up a bit for the summer. Can't wait to see him swimming.

∙ 14y agoBlack labs are notorious for becoming "salt and pepper" in their old age. They will begin to grow little white hairs around their paws, tails, faces, chests, etc. It is also more common to grow white hairs if they had bolo paws when they were puppies, or have the AKC undesirable white spot on their chest.
My chocolate lab had bolo markings when she was little, she will probably get white hairs when she is old.

Can labrador retriever pups change colors after birth?
A lab can not change color like from yellow to chocolate. However an older lab could change from yellow to white or the color of his fur gets lighter just like as people get old their hair starts to turn gray. This is because everyone's hair is naturally gray, pigments just color it. When pigments stop working or run out your (or your dog's) hair gets lighter in color. But only peoples turns gray.
