Best Answer

Yes. The actual tail part should be about an inch in diameter. Then there is a lot of fur on the tail, so about 2 inches diameter total. This thick tail was used for swimming to help steer the dog.

All Labrador Retrievers should have an otter type tail, is part of the breed standard. It helps to steer them while swimming. If a breeder is not breeding correctly, their pups may end up with a narrower tail and that is not called for in the standard. That is why you should study up on the breed, any breed, before purchasing one. Go to a reputable breeder who breeds to better the breed.
