The Labrador Retriever, Labrador or just Lab, is a medium-large breed of retriever-gun dog. The Labrador is the most popular breed of dog in many nations. In the United States the former are sometimes mistakenly referred to as 'American' and the latter as 'English' although both field and show types are bred in both countries. In the United Kingdom they are called 'Field' and 'Show'. Labradors often enjoy retrieving a ball endlessly (often obsessively) and other forms of activity (such as agility, frisbee, or flyball). A Labrador participating in dog agilityAlthough they will sometimes bark at noise, especially noise from an unseen source ('alarm barking'), Labradors are usually not noisy or territorial. They are often very easygoing and trusting with strangers and therefore are not usually suitable as guard dogs. Many dogs, including Labs such as this eight-year-old, show distinct whitening of the coat as they grow older; especially around the muzzle.
