Retrievers were bred to, obviously, RETRIEVE. So if you want a dog that is guaranteed to play fetch you should go with a Labrador Retriever, Golden Retriever, or Retriever mix. Pit bull / Retriever mixes are always wanting to play and constantly stay hyper if that's what you're looking for, they're good for active owners. Dogs that are prone to hunting/herding behaviours could also be prone to fetching, especially since fetching or bringing "food" is… Read More

3 to 4 times a day. This is according to my 2-month old black labrador, Samuel's vet.

Your dog should grow big and it should show all the distinctions of a pure-breed labrador retriever. Listen to the… Read More
