He can turn on in the field or just be mellow.

He can break through ice and swim with ease,

and for his master he lives to please.

You can toss something away to no avail,

he'll just bring it back, wagging his otter tail.

When it comes to versatility no other breed can compete,

in retrieving ducks or guiding the blind across the street.

It doesn't matter if you come home late,

he waits patiently at the kennel gate.

He longs to be with the family in the house,

or crash through the alders for his first ruffed grouse.

You can give to him compliments galore

He deserves them all, he's a LABRADOR

TRULY A BREED FOR ALL REASONS!!!!

'IN GOD I TRUST - IN HIM I BELIEVE"
