What the heck,
when you go back,
take two and call me in the morning!
those two look like suitable candidates.

PS How old are they in that pic? somehow, they don't seem like they'll be small labs to me.

The one on the left is the biggest one and a bruiser with her litter mates. The one on the right is just a tic smaller and the most chill.

Jeeezzz, don't show that to my wife.
It's amazing how different they all are. My first lab was laid back and hardly ever barked. He was a great dog. The one we have now is completely opposite. He's a great dog, but he's wound up tight and barks at me over everything. If he could talk, maybe he wouldn't bark so much. Nice as can be, just energetic.

My wife likes the one on the left. These were bred for intelligence and high energy so the one on the right might be a good hedge.

My wife likes the one on the left. These were bred for intelligence and high energy so the one on the right might be a good hedge. I stand by my words earlier........................... get them both! They will balance each other out, the mellow one will provide an example to her sister of how to act around the house. the rambunctious one will get her sister off the couch and out in the yard to learn hunting skills! (or just for play even) Have fun whichever way you go, they both look wonderful and I'm jealous. Geno PS, have to agree, don't show that to my wife ME again, I may be running to the nearest breeder with good pups.

I jokinly said I'd take them all. We only get one, one at a time, so they'll imprint on us rather than each other, that and there aren't enough to go around.

I would discourage getting both. My last pair were brother and sister from the same litter. Both were good dogs, but never got the training together than they would have gotten separately. They also ran as their own pack when together, hunted differently when apart (better). They are cute at that age but I do remember leaving them in the yard one day and they ate the wooden garden furniture set. All 5 pieces. Both dead for a few years now.

Are you picking the pup, or is the breeder picking it for you, based on your needs and expectations?

We go back in two weeks to pick one. Here are two favorites. Holy Crap! If I didn't have to re-learn how to post images, I could put up a pic that would be an exact twin to that one, minus the red shirt. I got it from the breeder after I picked out my female. She's 12 1/2 now. Enjoy! Labs are great dogs and become members of the family in no time!

Beautiful dogs!!! The puppy test has scored rock solid for our last two chocolate labs. You can google it. I look for a lab that is not too Alpha and not too Passive, right in the middle. They make the best retrievers. We have two Choc labs both from the same breeder. These two are great sisters. One is 11 years old and a retired hunter. The young one is now 1 year old and retrieving like a champ. Time for real ducks in November. They grow out of puppy stage way too fast! Cali today at 1 year old:
