Some Facts About Silver Labradors

By Anita Ortega


All dogs are beautiful and playful, loyal and devoted to their owners, but Labs are something special. Their high intelligence, loving nature and great appearance make them widely popular. Silver Labradors look especially attractive, thanks to their interesting color. They are especially popular and appreciated in the USA, but also all over the world.

Labs come in various colors and shades, including white, beige, black and charcoal. Although silver labs are actually grey, they belong into chocolate color variety, at least for now. The same thing is with charcoal, or blue dogs, registered as black. These specific shades fit into existing color range of recognized categories, but the breeders hope that will be soon changed, and they will get their own.

Another great thing about Labs is that you really don't have too much troubles with keeping them tidy. Their coats are short and smooth, very easy to groom. Daily brushing is perfectly enough to keep them clean. Sometimes they might get dirty, but don't give them a bath unless it is absolutely necessary. Dry shampoo them occasionally, or simply use a damp cloth. If they were swimming in the sea, rinse them well.

Lab is a very active dog, strong and always ready to play. Their health requires daily walks, especially if they live indoor, and you don't have a large yard for them to play. Thanks to their really nice temper and great obedience, they are perfectly suitable for living in the apartment, but you need to take them for a walk every single day.

Labs can be great guard dogs, police dogs or family pets. Thanks to their great obedience and eagerness to please, they are simply great in whatever they do. They need to be socialized and trained early, and you won't have any problems with them. They have numerous wonderful qualities, and make really perfect family dogs.

This particular silver shade is especially attractive. Depending on the light, this color might appear almost blue, or even brown-gray. In any case, the coat is smooth and glossy, and proper nutrition will make it even more beautiful. Silvers are very popular in different parts of the world, and, in the last few years, one of the most popular breed varieties in the USA.

Labs have sensitive ears and eyes, and they might pick up different infections. It is important to keep their ears and eyes clean. Heavier dogs often have problems with their joints, especially hips. They gain weight quite easily, especially if they aren't very active. Make sure to give them appropriate amount of quality food only, and they will be much healthier.

Labs have so many wonderful qualities that it is simply great to have them. Beautiful, obedient and highly intelligent, they make really perfect family dogs, companion or work dogs. Their kind nature and nice temper, great appearance and a constant eagerness to please their masters make them interesting to all future dog owners. If you would like to get a dog, this might be a perfect choice.
