August 13th was the day of my 9th b-day i think!!! I have a choco lab to. He's like 3 though! Aren't they like the most well behaved dogs??? Mines a couch potatoe.
Although I agree that her approach to introducing them to water isn't the best method. I do not believe that this animal cruelty. Labradors adore water. I have one myself and she swims where ever there is water, even in her bowl. The best way to introduce them to water is to coax them in and encourage them. Once they are more comfortable take them a little deeper in but still hold them to support and comfort. They will b swimming in no time.
To the jackasses saying this is cruelty apparently are unaware the almost ll dogs do like to swim once introduced to it. ESPECIALLY labs. They were bred for it for crying out loud! These are probably the same people that dogs should live a vegan diet..... (Yeah, those people really do exist out there.)
@TheJD0N its important they be introduced to water because that is literally what they are bred for. Labs have webbed toes and they love water. i have NEVER met a lab that doesnt. the puppies are skeptical and shy because they dont know what their doing and its their first time. the women is not harming them because they are not protesting or refusing to go in the water nor are they crying out
@TheJD0N No worries, labs are made to be in the water, they are a water doggie. I had one for about 12 years, and that doggie looooooooved to swim. It is what they are made for. These pups will be great swimmers when they get older. It is good they are being introduced to the water:)
Wouldn't that be considered abuse? Because you keep on forcing them to be in the water, they try to get out but then you pick them up and put them back in the water. Just sayin.
just saying.. i feel like u should have put them in a little kid pool so they cud test out the feel of water and such b4 u made them swim...and let them decide to go in the water them selvs ..just makes them more confient and not scared:]
Best Dogs and definatly deserve to be the 1# Dog for 15 Years, I have one and he's awsome...Just look around, everyone has Labs! At least were I am in Massachusetts.
which means that the chocolate lab CAN hurt you..... even though they are little puppies, when they are older YOU WILL NOT be able to force them to get in the water... its kinda like animal cruelty, what you are doing.
i have a chocolate lab, dont force them to do anything, he destroyed my 120 pound Malamute in a fight.. even though the mala is a far more surperior dog, the lab has VERY strong jaws, and leg muscles
They are way too young for this. They probably haven't even had their first set of shots yet. Not a good idea.

Should have had an adult lab to show they how to swim.. the would eumlate the dog.. saying 'come here' over and over teaches them nothing.
I've seen pups run in after mom at the lake.
