Best Answer

The short answer is, a lot. Labrador Retrievers were originally bred to be field dogs, working as guides, trackers and retrievers of shot birds and other game. They have a lot of energy and a lot of stamina, so you will need to run your puppy ragged on a consistent basis. I would suggest at least one hour of play/run in the morning and another 2-3 hours of playing, running, walking and work in the evenings daily. However, if you can do more, that would be a good idea.

Labradors who get bored and have too much energy often become destructive, tearing up furniture and various items (such as baseboards, shoes, curtains, etc). This is simply their way of burning off energy, but it makes for a very unhappy household.

Is the Labrador Retriever easy to groom?

Yes, the Labrador Retriever has a sleek, shorthaired coat that does not require much grooming and maintenance. However, this breed sheds heavily, and its fur sticks easily to furniture and clothing. The Labrador's shedding coat also makes it unsuitable as a pet for people allergic to dogs.


How much exercise does a black lab need?

Lots of exercise is good for every dog, but the Labrador Retriever part will require a fair amount. If the "doodle" is from a full-size hunting poodle, then that part will call for a lot of exercise, too. If they whine and bark a lot, or chew up household items, then you can be sure that the dog needs more exercise and play.
