“Worth all the work”
Written on: 14/05/2013
My chocolate lab was a handful when I brought him home at 4 months. I honestly didn't know what I was getting into. A lab puppy is a full time job and requires a lot of patience. BUT it was worth every moment. My lab has brought out the best parts of every one in my family. I can't imagine life without my big goofy lab. He goes everywhere we go and I look forward to the next 10 years with him. (read more)

I have two Chocolate Lab puppies, one being 7 Months of age and the other of 3 months. After falling in love with the first and oldest puppy, Brantley, We just HAD to get a second, Colt. They are, by far the MOST AMAZING pets a person could ever ask for. They have completely different personalities but at the end of the day my boyfriend and I love them both the same. Brantley is calm, and very chill until around bed time. Then he's running laps through our home and jumping from couch to... (read more)

We have a 3 year old chocolate lab named Penny. As a puppy she was a holy terror. Lol. But one day something clicked and she just suddenly got everything we had been trying to teach her. No accidents. You never have to tell her anything twice. My husband has even trained her to listen to snapping. You don't even have to say a word. Just snap and she knows to go to bed. She is the most loyal and loving dog. She loves the cat we got when she was 2 even though she didn't grow up with her. She's... (read more)

We got our lab from a sanctuary. He was from a puppy farm and was totally traumatised. It took 3 months of patient loving to train him but was all worthwhile. He is the most beautiful dog ever. He is so obedient and loving and no trouble at all now.You can take him anywhere. I would recommend a lab to anyone looking for a dog.Why not get one from a rescue centre or sanctuary. They are worth the effort to train. (read more)

Our chocolate lab was 13 in August. I'd like to ask you how you made the decision to put your dog to sleep. Our dog still has an appetite, but has messed in the house, peed on the floor, has a problem with her right hip so that you can hear her drag her leg when she gets up after napping. On the other hand, once she gets going, she'll walk to the mailbox, walk out onto the porch to be wih us, etc. I just don't know. Please help

Written on: 27/01/2011
We have a 15 month old chocolate lab called Maddie, who is the most loving dog you could ever wish for. She is a bit on the loopy side and has a tendency to pinch socks and other items (especially food!!) and run off with them if they're left around. She has boundless energy and requires a lot of exercise but absolutely loves being walked and runs around fields for hours if she can.
She chewed a few things as a puppy but generally is great company and good fun for all the family. The...

We got our coco from a rescue centre in sept, and she is coming up to her first birthday later this month. She is wonderful, got her as a companion for our other dog, following the death of her last friend. They get on brillently although I would say coco is the leader already lol.
The only downside is that she is high energy which is fine when you have to dogs to walk regularly, but loves everything and everyone and still trying to work on her running off to strangers and other dogs...

Hi we have just rescued our chocolate lab from Labrador Welfare and he has been with us 8 weeks now. He sounds just like Coco, so loving, full of high level energy and always wants to meet strangers and other dogs. He was so distracted by other people and dogs and wouldn't come on recall but I had a trainer and she advised me to carry very tiny tiny pieces of cheese everywhere we went and now we have now problem with George on the recall. He is an absolute gorgeous dog and he also requires constant attention. Hope this is helpful to you.

Our chocolate girl "Pickle" is a lovely dog, now 8 months old. Chocolate labs demand lots of attention so be sure that you can give this before getting one. We're were knackered after a few weeks when she was 9 weeks old. V. naughty, playful nature, pestilent even. But wonderful and very funny. Be sure that you get one that has been well socialised as Pickle was be a bit shy of strangers and barked a lot presumably due to breeder not having handled her enough in the very early weeks. I...

I have an 8 month old chocolate lab, she is still a real handful, she will take basic commands but is hyperactive, she still gets us up thru the night to go out. Like the book Marley I couldn't take her to training classes because they would throw her old. Have you any tips or is yours still like this? I'm tired at getting up and at my wits end. We have always had labs but this is our first chocolate lab.

Chocolate labs are perhaps the most friendly dog you can find. They are wonderful with kids, play continually and need lots of exercise. If you ever see chocolate labs playing with one another they recognise each other as being totally daft and full of fun. Lots of ear biting, leg chewing and chasing. Our dog is 18 months now and the best thing we have ever done for our family. Don't expect them to be useful as guard dogs. Our dog never barks, licks strangers to death and wags her tail...

Molly is a 13month old chocolate labrador. We acquired her through labrador rescue when she was six months old. She was very submissive when we first got her, but since she started to feel confident with us, she has become very unruly. We have taken her to classes and was advised to do several things, but we can't seem to knock this stubbornness out of her. We hope she will outgrow this naughty trait. She was spayed a month ago, but no sign of her calming down yet. She is the 6th labrador... (read more)

Tara my Chocolate Labrador is adorable, playful and loving with us the family and with other people and dogs. She loves to greet people and is being trained now not to jump up at everyone. She is 9 months old and sometimes like to run off with other dogs and comes back in her own time. but she has been trained in many other things. I do advise that chocolate labs need to be trained early and then you will find them easier to handle later and enjoy them as they enjoy your company. (read more)

Moesmom's Comment
Written on: 29/08/2008
We got our very first chocolate lab when he was almost 7 weeks old. He was the runt of the litter. He is now 2 weeks shy of being 7 months old and weighs in at 45 pounds. His name is Moe (the Moose) and he is VERY playful and demands all the attention. He is very smart and personable. He chews on anything he can put in his mouth and LOVES water. He loves to play with in the back yard and goes crazy if you say the word walk. He can be quite a handful at times. He thinks he is a little lap dog and is quite stubborn when you're eating and he is not. He is hyper and clumsy but is easily trainable. He can sit and shake his paw any time you ask him too. We love him and wouldn't trade him for the world.

We lost our lovely girl Biscuit, a Chocolate Lab 4 weeks ago with an inoperable tumour on the heart. Biscuit had a lovely nature, but was world class at digging enormous holes in the garden. On Friday I picked our next Choc Lab Polly, who will be with us in a few weeks. We are having the garden re-turfed in preparation, and will scatter Biscuits ashes on it when it is laid.
