About Labrador Retrievers

The Labrador Retriever is the UK's most popular dog breed for good reason — friendly, adaptable, and food-motivated, making them highly trainable. Labradors are gentle with children, sociable with other dogs, and suit a wide range of households. They do moult heavily and need regular exercise to avoid weight gain.

Adopting from rescue

Rescue Labradors often come from working backgrounds (gun dogs, guide dogs) that didn't work out, or from owners who couldn't manage their energy as puppies. Most adapt well to family life. Older Labradors in rescue are particularly rewarding — calmer and often already trained.
