We have some good news for lab-lovers out there: according to the American Kennel Club, the Labrador retriever has once again been named America’s most popular dog! This adorable breed has been rated top dog in the United States for 25 consecutive years, which is longer than any other breed! Generations of pup lovers have decided that Labrador retrievers are the best – which comes as no surprise to us here at Lankas Labs.

While French bulldog popularity has been on the rise in recent years, Americans keep coming back to the Labrador retriever. This adorable, family-friendly, easily trainable and loyal dog is the most popular breed in the country for a number of reasons. First recognized by the American Kennel Club in 1917, the lab retriever is known for its active, friendly and outgoing personality, with its strongly-built medium size and its yellow, black or chocolate coloring.

Labrador retrievers are known for being great with children and other pets, notes the AKC. Their curious and friendly nature also makes them the perfect choice of breed for a family with young children. They’re also comfortable being left alone during the day, which means you can leave the house for work or school and not worry about coming home to a lonely puppy that’s gotten into some mischief. Plus, they’re known for being healthy overall, and having very few long-term health issues.

If you’re thinking about adding a Labrador retriever to your family, check out Lankas Labs’ upcoming litters. We have chocolates and silvers due later this month, fox reds due at the end of October, whites due in the beginning of November, blacks and yellows due mid-November, and charcoals and silvers due at the end of November. How can you say no to these adorable faces?
