Feeding Your Lab:
|
|
We get more questions concerning feeding
than any other subject. So much of what
your Lab does, acts, plays and enjoys
good health is connected to their diet.
Confusion abounds in the pet community
regarding diet and so much of that is
driven by advertising claims that are
driven from a profit motive rather than
a motive directed at the well being of
your Lab. We will try to share what we
have learned.

Health Care for Your Lab:
|
|
It distresses me to hear stories of Labs
leaving us in the prime of their life.
Often the very things we do to protect
our pets seem to be a cause of
difficulty. There are real concerns
about our vaccination schedules, dog
parks, foods and supplements, allergies,
immune and blood problems and of course
cancer. We try to give you the latest
and best info on these problems.

Training Your Lab:
|
|
The folks who adopt pups from us will
attest that one of my "speeches"
concerns the necessary training of their
pup at least in the basic obedience
lessons that will make them a delightful
dog. A Lab is a big energetic dog that
loves to play and even more to work for
you. Here at Alderwood we have developed
an online training schedule and
instruction guide that will help you to
train your Lab

Breeding Your Lab:
|
| If you decide to breed your Labrador,
there are many factors to consider and decide. Foremost, is the intent of
creating a breed standard litter that will perpetuate or improve the
characteristics of the sire and dam. For the casual breeder the responsibility
litter care can be daunting if prior experience is not possessed. All that said
raising a litter of Labs can be one of the most rewarding and educational things
you can do (Click here for details) |

Hunting Your Lab:
|
|
We believe the Labrador Retriever is the
best all around hunting dog available
today. Now I know there are those who
will actively debate that statement,
however, once a person has worked with a
well trained Lab either in pursuit of
upland game or the marshes, lakes and
rivers of waterfowl habitat, all on the
same weekend, cannot debate my statement
to any extent.
