Labrador Retrievers have been within the top five most popular dog breeds for the last few decades, thanks to the fact that they make such incredible family pets. This is especially true for Yellow Labradors. To be perfectly honest, if you are the proud owner of a Black Labrador and are considering getting him a Yellow partner in crime, you are most likely already prepared for it. The color difference does not translate to behavioral differences, but Chocolates tend to be a bit more high strung than the other two colors.

Yellow Labs possess all of the celebrated traits of a family dog. They're wonderful with children, which is a selling point for most families.

These pointing Yellow Labs will also take a little more out of your pocket, generally costing a minimum of $1000!
