Labrador Retriever Dogs Blog

It’s probably not too surprising that many of us take our dogs health for granted. We probably don’t mean to do it. It just kind of happens by accident. We expose them to things or feed them food with ingredients that we wouldn’t eat or expose ourselves to. We rush out and take our vitamins, eat healthy food do things like giving ourselves a liver cleanse. We then turn around and feed our dog food with questionable ingredients or even expose them to second hand smoke. It’s just a matter of becoming more aware of what we are exposing out pets to. After all, we want them to live a long and health life. So think about it next time you are shopping for pet food or taking your dog in public or even buying them a toy. Read the label and think about exactly what you are giving them.

It was one of those moments I wish I had a camera but I didn't. Our neighbourhood is undergoing a water restoration. All of the houses are having their pipes from the road replaced which means their are hoses everywhere piping the water into the houses from main on the street. The result is that there is water everywhere during the day on the streets. Try taking your labrador retriever for a walk with pools of water everywhere in the street. I took Cooper around the block to mail some birthday invitations and we couldn't go two seconds without Cooper laying down and splashing around in the water. It must have been a paradise for him. What are some odd places your labrador retriever has gone for a swim?

I was sitting back today thinking of all of the things my Cooper has chewed over the years. There has been a long line of shoes, socks and delicates. There has also been some higher end items like the drywall in my basement, solar lights around the pool and even our Delsey luggage. Over the years we sure have lost alot. I have found though if he has something like a toy or a bone always on hand he doesn't chew as much because he will always go to that toy. Also keeping doors closed during the day so he can't get at things helps as well.

What are some of the items your labrador retreiver has chewed on you?

Hunting and field tests are rather exciting endeavors for your labrador retriever dogs. Breeds such as the labrador retriever make great hunting companions and generally love the outdoors and the thrill of hunting and retrieving. Although you will need the proper equipment such as the proper weapon set, not tactical gear but you will also need a properly trained hunting dog. Search your local newspapers or phone books and find a hunting club nearby that can assist you. You are sure to find an expert in your town or city that can point you in the right direction to getting your labrador retriever properly trained for hunting and retrieving.
