Chocolate Labs

[Sion Blewyn Coch 0]

Hi

 

What are your thoughts on Chocolate Labs in the field, I have been told that they are not as good and harder to train that the usual Black,Yellow or Fox Red

but I dont think there would be any difference really .

I must say I dont see many working Chocolate labs in my neck of the woods,

 

Any comment please?

ive never seen one in the field but my dogs mother was one and she seemed easy going and worked picking up. however every pet chocolate lab ive met seems nuts,

chocolate labs have always appealed to the pet market more so you see plenty of ditzy ones but ive seen loopy pet black and yellows labs too. black labs are more popular as workers and so they tend to be seen more, fox red well thats the new trendy name for dark yellow labs and they seem very fashionable at the minute. i believe there was a chocolate in the championship a year or two ago, plus there appear to be several pros running them, once a couple get made up to FTch and put to stud there'll be a few more out in the field.

 

seems ironic that for most people colour in a working dog doesnt matter unless its chocolate not sure how the colour of a dog can affect its abilities, im sure a well bred chocolate wont be much better or worse than a well bred lab of any other colour.
