An Excellent Resource

Like the other TFH publications for the various breeds, this is a great resource for the family dog owner. I'm not sure how useful this book would be to a serious breeder/trainer or kennel operator (which I'm not). Much of it is "entry level", but well presented and organized. Typical of TFH, there is an opening chapter dealing with the origins and features of the breed (Labrador Retriever in this case), then much non-breed-specific (but comprehensive) information on behavioral topics, training, health care, feeding, breeding, and legal considerations. Printed on heavy, glossy paper with many nice photos of the breed. My copy served me well with my Lab mixed breed - although we never did get that digging problem figured out. Pick up a copy and look it over before you bring home your dog.
