Bear Pond Labrador Retrievers

Labrador Retrievers are medium-large, but our males typically weigh 80–over 100 lbs and our females are 75–85 lbs. We breed a big, blocky lab with a classic otter tail.  The majority of the characteristics of this breed, with the exception of color, are the result of breeding to produce a working retriever. Labradors have a reputation as a very even-tempered breed and an excellent family dog. This includes a good reputation with children of all ages and other animals. Labradors as a breed are curious and exploratory and love company, following both people and interesting scents for food, attention, and novelty value.
