決める前に知っておくこと
Important behavioral traits that potential owners should understand:
Labrador puppies are notoriously mouthy. Unlike the gentle nip of some breeds, Labs explore the world with their mouths and have a prolonged biting/mouthing phase that can last well into adolescence (6–18 months). This can be terrifying for young children and frustrating for owners.
A bored Labrador is a demolition machine. Their powerful jaws, bred to carry game birds, can easily destroy drywall, sofas, and solid wood furniture if their mental and physical needs are not met. This is not "bad behavior"; it is a displacement activity for an under-stimulated working dog.
Labradors mature slowly. They often retain a boisterous, puppy-like energy and lack of impulse control until they are 3 or 4 years old. Owners expecting a calm "Old Yeller" type dog at age one are often shocked by the reality of a 70lb dog with the brain of a toddler.
This is not a breed for people who want personal space. Labs are prone to separation anxiety if left alone for long periods. They are cooperative workers who need to be with their "pack."
