What's the difference between Golden lab and Labrador retriever?
are they the same?
I'm also debating whether to get a labrador or golden retriever (or a lab retriever/ golden lab) can someone tell me the the pros and cons of the two?
please...don't preach to me about adopting I've adopted before and I'll do it again.
You've actually got two questions here.
First, as to the difference between a Golden Lab and a Labrador Retriever. There is no "Golden Lab" -- this is a name that some people use for a Yellow Lab (Labs come in three basic colors -- yellow, black and chocolate). If someone is trying to sell you a "Golden Lab" run like crazy in the opposite direction. They either don't know what the true name of the dog is or they are trying to sell you a Golden Retriever/Labrador Retriever cross.
Labs and Goldens are two very different breeds. I'm not either a Golden or a Lab person, but essentially, the Lab is a little more independent, a little more boisterous and *can be* a little more hyper. They are a short-coated breed, although their coat is double and they do shed like crazy.
Golden Retrievers come in *one* basic color -- golden -- in various shades from very pale cream to an almost Irish Setter red. Their coat is longer, with more feathering. They are a very devoted, easygoing breed and are very popular in as obedience dogs because they are easy to train. They are generally a little more laid back than Labs.
I'll let someone who has the dog go into the cons, as my idea of the cons may not be the same as theirs. Neither would be my choice of breed, but that's an individual taste, not necessarily the "fault" of the dog!
