Silver Labrador Retriever Puppies For Sale A Best Breed Pick

By Jeannie Chapman


Many couples believe their union is not whole until they adopt another into their home. And it isn't always a child. A young couple may bring a dog into their family first to test the waters. Before choosing a reputable breeder, there are several questions a couple needs to answer honestly concerning their daily schedule and habits. The answers will provide details needed to help choose the greatest addition of silver labrador retriever puppies for sale.

Although the AKC, American Kennel Club of America, does not identify this dog color as a retriever, a shiny gray lab is a true bird dog with strong bloodlines. Their reasoning behind the non-endorsement is their certification of chocolate color, which encompasses several shades including a glossy gray. This in no way diminishes the validity of such a breed.

Even if the AKC doesn't have a separate category for this color, Retriever groups around the world hold them to a high standard. They consent to three colors: factored-silver, light and charcoal. Chocolate, yellow and black make up the factored colors, which come from a true silvery parent although the puppy could be of a different color. This does not preclude the pup from siring an offspring of shiny grays; they would simply need to breed with a pure silver-gray or another factored dog that carries the gene.

Another misnomer about this type of retriever is there must be some Weimeraner in their linage. An assumption such as this has been proven untrue by top researchers at an American college of veterinary medicine. The genetic components found in labs of silver-grays are not the same as the Weimeraner.

Purchasing a new pup should not be taken lightly and not something you can simply clip a coupon for. A fee will not determine a bloodline, the existing or future health or the behavior and temperament. Trustworthy and dependable breeder who is willing to show you their complete operation is going to provide the best dogs.

If your home is a small house or apartment, you will want to reconsider a lab. Due to their size and bountiful energy, this breed needs more room and a purpose. If they are not given something to do, a job, then your personal belongings become their business. They hunt your socks, purses, shirts and even an end table or two and terminate its existence.

Sporting dog is the group retrievers fall in at AKC. Their origins found in Newfoundland, working with fisherman. Dogs would capture wayward fish as they tried jumping back to the water when nets were dragged up onto the boat. Breeding with other Retrievers, Setters and Spaniels produced the labs known today, dogs that fetch game and small creatures after they've been shot.

If you are adopting a dog, look into silver labrador retriever puppies for sale. A lab is one of the most trustworthy, gentle and devoted dogs there are today. You and your family will not only feel safe, you will have so much fun and endless love from a wonderful companion.
