Pet Care: Labrador Retriever

The fourth guide in our HomeReady Pet Care series! Labrador Retrievers are friendly, outgoing family dogs — and their famous appetite has a genetic explanation: about 23% of Labs carry the POMC 'always hungry' gene. This 52-page printable care guide puts everything a Labrador owner needs in one place, from weighed-food weight management (lean Labs live a median 1.8 years longer) to ear care and exercise safety, with real Labrador photos — black, yellow, and chocolate — throughout.
