My yellow lab has struggled with food allergies for months and months and we cannot seem to find a solution. We've tried Science Diet, Iams Natural, Blue Buffalo (all flavors) and NOTHING seems to work. He is constantly scratching his skin and the food makes his ears itch. Please help me find a food so he doesn't have to suffer.

I know labs have lots of energy and they need lots of exercise, so what is the best way to exercise them? what kind of exercise tires them out the most and the fastest?

There is nothing wrong with her legs, joints, or any part of her body. She has done this before and it only has lasted a day. We couldn't coax her with treats, and i couldn't lead her by her collar. I just eventually had to carry her up. Maybe it's something she hears or smells?
She's not a puppy, she's a few years old. She has done this two or three times over the years.

I have a pure-breed chocolate lab that is a year old. What is a good and inexpensive way to train him to fetch ducks? He knows how to play fetch and follow directions. But how do i teach him to mark downed ducks and not to eat the duck? Also I live on a acre of land so i have plenty of room to practice with him.

My yellow lab loves to fetch tennis balls and other toys. But, how do I train him to bring me his leash? He wants to get it, but he turns away at the last second.

Our Lab turned 5 months old today and is 41 pounds and not fat at all. She is about 19 or 20 inches tall across the back. Wondering how big she might get, and when.

I have been researching them a lot but would like the opinions of people who own one already. I will be getting female black lab and am ready to deal with the exercise needs and shedding but I am not sure what else I should be worried about. Thank You in advance for any answers.

I am looking for lab breeders in Colorado, but don't know how to find one that is guaranteed reliable and raises healthy pups. I know that there are a lot of dogs that need homes in shelters, and I would be open to that option myself, but my family is completely set on getting a puppy from a breeder. That in mind, I want to make sure that we get our lab from a good breeder, not from a puppy mill. How do I go about finding the reliable and honest breeders?
