The Labrador Retriever has a temperament comparable to that of a Golden Retriever and is definitely notoriously good-natured. Before you decide to live with a Labrador Retriever, you need to understand its personality, and if the dog you live with has a different personality, you will go crazy.

Labrador Retriever character

1. The Labrador Retriever's personality must be friendly to humans, and it should look happy to see you and walk up to you when you sit or squat to call it. If it ignores you at all, it is not a good sign; if it comes over as soon as it sees you, it means that it is too curious about humans, then you take it out in the future, and you will be in trouble when you meet all kinds of pedestrians who are in high spirits .

2. Look at the trainability of the Labrador Retriever to detect the personality, drag it on the ground with a toy or old socks, it should be attracted, and even want to play, and finally the whole dog may run over to play, this is a Good omen, dogs with no interest at all will be difficult to train later on.

3. Test the courage of the Labrador Retriever, put the dog on the hard ground to play with it, when it is very attentive to play, you suddenly drop a stainless steel bowl or other objects that may be loud at a distance of about 1.5 meters On the ground, see if the noise scares it. A good sign is that the puppy will check for the source of the noise, or keep playing when urged. If a puppy is frightened and won't continue to play, then its personality is too sensitive to be a family pet.

4. This is similar to the second one. When playing with the dog alone, roll the tennis ball in front of it and see if it will chase the ball. If you call it, it will come back to you. If it comes back obediently, it will be easy to play games like Frisbee in the future; if not, it will be hard to expect it to learn to play more complicated games like Frisbee with you in the future.

Labrador Retrievers rarely bark in their lives. They are friendly to the elderly, children and strangers, have a stable personality, and will not rush towards the elderly and children at will. At home, the well-trained Labrador will also follow the owner's instructions, help pass some small objects and so on.
