Article Title: Things To Consider When Buying A Labrador Puppy
Author: Marius Ciobanu
Few things can make one's heart melt like a new puppy, and few
breeds of puppies have the enduring charm and warmth like a
Labrador puppy. It should come as no surprise that the Labrador
puppy is the most popular breed of dog in the United States and
United Kingdom. The Labrador puppy is more than cute though,
they are also good natured, energetic, and one of the fastest
learning breeds. However, despite all of their positive
attributes, prospective Labrador puppy owners need to know that
it takes some work and research to help them select the Labrador
puppy that is best suited for them.
The first thing to remember when considering a Labrador puppy
is that it is a pure bred dog, therefore it is incumbent on the
potential owner to find a competent, responsible, and
knowledgeable breeder. A good breeder of Labrador puppies will
conduct health tests on the male and female adult Labradors
before breeding. This will help ensure that your puppy is
healthy and free of disease. Competent Labrador puppy breeders
also consider genetics when breeding dogs, and they will only
breed dogs that have excellent temperaments. Good breeding will
help give you a Labrador puppy that possesses all the great
traits that they are known for.
When it comes time to select a puppy from a litter, be careful
and cautious in order to avoid the pitfalls that trap many
Labrador puppy owners. It seems natural for someone to see the
puppy that approaches them first, or the one that seems the most
affectionate and friendly, to be the "pick of the litter."
However, this selection technique can often lead owners astray,
and when they select a Labrador puppy with those traits they are
often selecting the most forceful and domineering puppy in the
litter. Remember that the calmer and gentler Labrador puppy that
approaches you cautiously, or watches you from the background,
is often the puppy that is most likely to be an obedient,
enjoyable pet.
It is equally important to look for the Labrador puppy that
seems very shy or even scared. While one should steer clear of
the most outgoing and aggressive Labrador puppies, they should
be equally concerned with Labrador puppies that are timid,
nervous, or shy. The shy Labrador puppy often grows up to be a
shy, scared dog that is quick to bark or snap at anything that
scares it.
Once you have eliminated the most bold, and the most bashful,
your best bet is to focus your attention on the Labrador puppy
that possesses traits that are more "in the middle." A well
suited Labrador puppy should be curious, friendly, and
cautiously interested in you and what you are doing. Move the
puppy away from his littermates and see how he reacts to you.
Once you find that puppy that acts well in a crowd, or alone,
likes to wag his tail, and likes to be in your company, you may
have found that special Labrador puppy that will become part of
your family.
