The Pick Of The Litter Silver Labrador Retriever Puppies For Sale

By Jeannie Chapman


Some families feel they aren't complete without the putter-patter of paws galloping across floors at top speed all hours of the day and night. Before traveling to a breeder, there are a few questions to ask yourself regarding your family's daily habits. Honest answers about large and small details of everyone in the home will help a family choose the best silver labrador retriever puppies for sale.

The American Kennel Club (AKC), where all breed standards are set, does not recognize this particular color lab. The reason is because chocolate labs have a range of colors, including the silvery style. However, this does not mean the shiny gray pups are not true retrievers, their bloodline has been proven solid time and time again.

Retriever groups across the country accept three distinct colors of shiny gray for silvery pups. They consist of light, factored-silver and charcoal, with the factored-silver encompassing yellow, black and chocolate dogs. When a pup is labeled chocolate, one of its parents would be a silver-gray color. The puppy itself may not be a silvery, but carries a gene for producing a silvery litter if he or she were to be bred with a true shiny gray or a factored-silver.

One myth surrounding the colorization of this breed is the introduction of Weimeraner into their past. Such a theory could have stood throughout time if it weren't for diligent scholars working at a US college for veterinary medical care of dogs. They found the core genetics in Weimeraners is not even close to those in the shiny labs.

Many believe all breeders are the same or choose the cheapest one on the list. The price of your new pup has little to do with the dog, how well it is bred, how it behaves and how healthy it is or will be throughout its life. A reputable breeder, one that will let you tour their breeding facility, is where the best dogs are kept. Secretive breeders have something to hide.

Labs are not meant for indoor life exclusively. They need the outdoors to run burn energy and explore. They can't live a sedentary life and need something to occupy their time, a daily activity. If your Retriever is engaged and stimulated in a way that keeps him or her busy and entertained, he or she will find other ways to busy themselves, chewing your clothing, shoes and furniture.

AKC organizes labs with other sporting dogs. Back in the early and mid-1800s, retrievers first appeared in Newfoundland alongside commercial fishermen. Their job was to help them retrieve escaping fish as the nets were pulled up from the waters. As the years went by, the Newfoundland retrievers were bred with Spaniels, other Retrievers and Setters. What today's lab is able to do is recover shot game or small animals while on hunt with their owners.

When thinking of adding to your family, think about silver labrador retriever puppies for sale. A lab will protect your family and your home; the dog will be loyal and true to you and each member of their new family. You will never regret opening your heart to such a sweet pup.
