The Labrador Retriever is the most popular dog breed in the United States so there are lots of good things to say about them. They will do ok in an apartment as long as they can be walked frequently. They do like lots of exercise. If it is possible for them to experience water occasionally, so much the better as they have a water resistant coat and love to swim.
As you probably know a great choice for a gun dog is a Labrador retriever especially if you want a good all rounder for shooting and hunting. I find these are probably the easiest to train especially for a beginner. Like all breeds of gun dogs Lab's have good and bad points, Here are some of the Pro's and Con's of training and owning a Labrador Retriever.
A solid, muscular dog, slightly longer than tall, with a short, hard, easy-care, water-resistant, double coat. Comes in solid black, yellow, or chocolate. The head is broad and the muzzle fairly wide. The medium sized ears are pendant. The nose should be black on black dogs and yellow dogs, brown on chocolate dogs. A scissors bite is preferred. The eyes should have a kindly expression. The chest should extend down to the elbows, but not further. The otter tail is strong, thick near the body then tapering, and completely covered with hair. The webbed feet aid in swimming.
