Originally from Newfoundland – not Labrador – where they retrieved
fishnets and lines for fishermen, Labradors are perfectly bred for swimming in
cold water. Their outer coat is short, straight, and very dense, but they also
have a soft, weather-resistant undercoat that provides protection from icy
water. And their webbed feet help them swim quickly! They can have black,
yellow, and chocolate-colored coats.
Fun Fact: The Labrador Retriever is the most popular dog breed in
the world.
