About the Labrador Retriever

The Labrador Retriever originated in Newfoundland, Canada, during the early 1800s. Despite the name suggesting a connection to Labrador, these dogs were actually bred by fishermen on the island of Newfoundland to help retrieve nets and catch from the cold Atlantic waters. British sportsmen visiting the region recognized their exceptional retrieving abilities and brought them back to England, where they were refined into the breed we know today.
