Labrador Retriever: After 3 years, still the best dog breed for families

Our Labrador Retriever has been part of our family for 3 years and I still get emotional thinking about how much he has enriched our lives. easy to train — and with two young kids, that means everything.

never met a stranger. We've tried other breeds before but nothing compares to the Labrador Retriever's temperament. He is friendly, outgoing, energetic and adapts beautifully to our busy household.

The main things to budget for: chews furniture as a puppy. We also learned about hip dysplasia is common, so we get regular vet checkups. Overall cost is higher than I expected initially, but every penny is worth it. Highly recommend this breed to anyone and everyone.
