Summary: Nice Compendium Of Information On Labradors!
Review: Here is an attractive entry by author Virginia Parker Guidry, abook that takes a loving look at America's singular and by far most popular wonder dog, the Labrador Retriever. As Berger points out so well, there are few other animals who draw such love from humans as a dog, and surely the Lab is the most loveable of the breeds. Here she presents the Labrador Retriever in all its wonder and does a yeoman service to the rest of us by enumerating all of the superb qualities the dog has to offer potential human enthusiasts. They are by reputation excellent working dogs, both as field dogs and as guide dogs for the disabled. They are also incredibly loyal, and the news services are often filled with wonderful and heartwarming stories of Labs crawling out on the ice to save their masters, often at considerable danger to themselves. Nonetheless, they stand by our sides. Therefore, this book, "Your Lab's Life", is the ultimate tribute to the breed, and is chock-full with stories and photos that actively serve to substantiate what might otherwise seem as idle boasts and overethusiastic praise. In fact, for anyone who spends any time around Labs, like me, it is hard nto to use superlatives when describing them. More than one of the stories herein will bring a smile to your face, a tear to your eye, and the idea in your noggin perhaps it is time to consider getting one of these incredible creatures into you rlife, and that of your extended family. they boost the energy level in any room they enter, are incredible chick-magnets, and have been shown to reduce high blood pressure and dissipate depression through their mere presence. This is a wonderful book about what I believe to be the world's most nearly perfect living creature, the Labrador Retriever! Enjoy!

Summary: Books Perfect for you and your Lab to being a new life.
Review: Hi, I'm Toni. I had a 4 year old Lab recently whom passed away. I was very said to have lost her. I only had her for 3 months, but we grew very close in mind and spirit. She was with me 24/7 every day. When she passed away I fell apart. I new she would want me to move on so I looked for several weeks for a new lab. Old and puppy. Not one clicked, finally I found the perfect female cholate puppy. I have never raised one my self and since I have been reading these two books they have helped me in do's and don'ts. What to do to keep the puppy happy and not get board. Where she should sleep and what her needs will be as she grows up. The type of food to give her, what kind of emergency kit to prepare for her in case something happens, toys, games, exercise, housing, how introudce her to other family animals and my children. I feel that these are giving me enough information know to begin my wonderful journey with my new best friend.

Summary: The BEST Lab Book
Review: I just recently got a Yellow Lab Puppy and was given this book as a present. It is absolutely the best book on Labs. I have found answers to all the questions I have had about him and learned so much about the breed. I was able to take him to the vet with lots of intelligent questions about Lab specific diseases and problems. My vet was so impressed that she got a copy for herself.

Summary: Recommended reading for new owners.
Review: I ordered this book based on all the reviews thinking that this was the one and only Lab book needed.... I have 2 PureBreed Labs and in speaking both with my Vet and other breeders thought I may have a litter. This book does not support the idea of breeding or yet the reproductive aspects of the Lab at all. If someone plans to own a Lab just for a pet and doesn't intend to ever think of it's reproductive health or need that information then yes..... this is a SUPER book! I agree with the author's advice about neutering and spaying to keep the population down, however feel for this to be called the only book you'll ever need... I disagree. Look else where for the reproductive information on your beloved pet! The format and layout of the book as well as the reading material is better than most books I've read. I will now be looking for yet more books on breeding.

Summary: Nothing here that you won't find elsewhere
Review: It was a good book to read, but it had NOTHING on training a lab how to retrieve. It gave a few instructions on basic dog commands, but I found similar tips in many other books. If you are looking for a guide to training your lab, this isn't for you.
