The Labrador Retriever, “Lab” for short, are the perfect companion you are longing for. Just look at these beautiful photos of Labradors who are just too cute and too adorable!
Not every dog has the patience and fortitude to wait calmly for treats. But labs know that good things come to dogs that know how to wait.
2. They’re always ready to help
Labs make great guide and service dogs because they’re highly trainable and obedient. But even more, they love their owners and want to help them.
Labs are loving and loyal, especially when it comes to kids. They’ll do anything for the little people in their family.
4. They’re great at making friends
Labs are playful and fun-loving. For that reason, they get along with animals of all kinds and sizes. And people too, of course.
5. They know how to cuddle
Do you want to go out and play? A lab is ready to go. But if you want to settle in for a nice cuddle, they’re happy to oblige.
6. They get into the Christmas spirit
Do you like to go all out for the holiday season? Your lab will be thrilled to be included. Plus, they’re just so cute in Santa hats.
Seriously, what’s not to love about a dog like this? They’re loving, playful, and just want to be wherever their people are.
8. They’re cooperative during training
Labs are some of the best guide dogs because they’re wonderfully obedient. They cooperate well and are scrupulous about doing their jobs right.
9. They’re willing to help around the house
If you don’t think your dog can help with tidying up, you don’t know a lab? Just get one of these dogs and see what happens. They’re just the best of all dogs.
10. They’re great at puns
There’s no way not to love a dog whose name opens up so many opportunities for puns? They’re perfect in every way.

Along with soulful eyes, labs are all around beautiful. I could look at this cutie all day long.

Labs are always down for whatever you want to do. You can tell them there’s a party starting in five minutes. They’ll be there.
13. They love to make you smile
Labradors are happy when you’re happy. They’re willing to do anything it takes to make that happen, whether it’s playing, snuggling, or something else.

If labs have a job to do, you can bet they’ll do it. They’ll show up on time and be the best worker you’ve ever known.
15. They’ll be your friend for life
Labs are all about loyalty. Once they become part of a family, they’ll be a friend that’ll never leave their owner’s side.
16. They know how to roll with the punches
This beautiful dog lost her two back legs, but that hasn’t stopped her from going on walks. She still even finds strange things in the woods.
17. They welcome new family members
Like many dogs, Labradors have a strong pack instinct. When it comes to welcoming new family members, they do so with…well, open paws.
18. Their puppies have enormous paws
Lab puppies are adorable for so many reasons but just look at those paws. They grew way before the rest of the pup and they’re just too cute.
19. There are different varieties
Yellow, chocolate, or black? You’ll find them all. And just look at these sweethearts. A difference in fur color means nothing to them.
20. They love to spend time outdoors
Labs love to run and play outside, so they’re great for hiking, swimming, or just playing in the yard. Whatever you’re up for, they’re up for, too.
Labs are sweet dogs and as stated, loyal to a fault. So, another family member took their bed. That’s okay, they’ll find somewhere else to rest.
22. They know how to sit and be quiet
Even though they have lots of energy and love the outdoors, it doesn’t mean Labradors can’t enjoy the simple things. Simply laying with their human can be a perfect day.
Labs are known for their love of water. That means you don’t have to worry about bath time. They’ll probably give you kisses as you soap up their fur.
24. They become part of the family
Loyalty is the name of the game when it comes to labs. Once they find their forever home, the humans become their family for life.
25. They know how to unwind
Labradors might be high-energy, but that doesn’t mean they don’t know how to relax. Often, they relax better than most of us.
26. They just want to make you happy
There’s nothing like love from a dog but lab love is unique. The only thing they want is to be by your side and do whatever makes you happiest.
Who doesn’t love a playful, frisky dog? Labs even stay playful as they age, which means you can look forward to years of playing fetch.
28. They love plushie toys
Labs were bred to retrieve birds. So, they love carrying things in their mouths. They often have favorite toys to chew on, cuddle with, and carry around.
29. They have a goofy sense of humor
Do you need something to make you smile after having a hard day? A lab can help with that. As we said, they’re willing to do anything to lift your mood.
Labs are some of the most cheerful dogs around. They’re always in a good mood — you can tell by their wide smile.
31. They’re great to take on trips
There’s nothing a lab loves more than taking a trip to the store. If it involves getting in a car and meeting new people, they’re in.
Sure, they love to go outside and get muddy, but that’s not all they enjoy. I mean, just look at this handsome little stud.
33. They stick by you through thick and thin
Everyone experienced hard times. With a lab, you know you have a friend by your side no matter what.
If there’s one thing labs love, it’s water. It doesn’t matter what kind of water: baths, pools, showers, lakes, or puddles…they’re all fair game.
35. They protect their “kids”
You couldn’t ask for a better protector of your kids than a lab. And even more, they couldn’t ask for a better friend.
