Description
Dog Breed: Labrador Retriever. What a beautiful Purebred Yellow Labrador Zeke is! He is a nice size and in good shape at 65lbs. This boy was a part of a loving family for the first 7 years of his life, then his family found out they needed to move oversees. Unfortunately, Zeke was unable to move to this new home with his family. He grew up with their children and was around their friends and family and loved them all. Zeke is house-trained and crate-trained. He was comfortable spending time in the backyard when the family was away, and he did not chew or dig. He enjoys having space to play and would do best in a home with a yard where he can run, fetch, swim, and spend time with his people. Some of his favorite activities are chasing balls, playing in the yard, swimming, and being active with the family. He knows several commands, including sit, down, spin, wait, leave it, and come here. He is especially patient and obedient when food is involved. He rides calmly in the car and is generally good on leash, though he can get excited when heading out for walks or meeting new people and dogs. Even though he is 7 he is still quite active and in really good physical shape. Zeke's ideal home would be with someone who understands Labrador energy, has room for him to play, and can give him exercise, structure, affection, and a stable forever home. He would likely do well with another dog once properly introduced and given time to adjust.

Overview:
The Labrador Retriever, a beloved and highly popular breed, originated in Newfoundland, Canada, where they were initially bred to assist fishermen by retrieving nets and stray fish. Physically, they are medium-to-large dogs, known for their strong, athletic build, short, dense, weather-resistant double coat (commonly seen in black, yellow, or chocolate), and their distinctive "otter" tail. Temperamentally, Labs are celebrated for their friendly, outgoing, and good-natured disposition, making them exceptional family companions. Their intelligence and eagerness to please contribute to their trainability, though they do require consistent exercise to prevent boredom and destructive behaviors. While adaptable, their energy levels make them more suited to homes with yards, or highly active families, rather than apartment living, unless daily extensive exercise is guaranteed. Regarding health, Labs can be prone to certain conditions like hip and elbow dysplasia, and some eye conditions, so responsible breeding practices are crucial. Overall, their loyalty, versatility, and affectionate nature firmly establish the Labrador Retriever as a wonderful addition to many households.
