Can you get a grey Labrador?
However, when it comes to controversial coat colours, there’s nothing to beat the so-called grey or silver Labrador. This isn’t a new colour variety, but one that first appeared in pure-bred Labradors in the USA 60 years ago.
What is a grey Labrador called?
Silver Labs, sometimes referred to as Blue Labradors, are known for their cool coat color. They are a variant of the Chocolate Lab and are registered with the AKC as such.
Are grey Labs purebred?
Although many believe the Silver Labrador Retriever isn’t a pure breed and pour scorn upon the breeders that produce them, you can actually register them as a pedigree in some countries. The American Kennel Club allows registration of silver Labradors as chocolate.
Are silver Labs lazy?
Any Labrador can be cuddly and lazy, but they need to be exercised first! Labs love being active and crave at least 60 minutes of exercise each day. They love going for walks and typically walk very well on a leash. Two long walks each day will make these active and curious dogs very happy!
Why are breeders against silver Labs?
Silver is not an acceptable color of Labrador Retriever and is a disqualifying fault. Based on an agreement in 1987 between the American Kennel Club and the LRC, it was agreed that there was no proof that these silver dogs were not purebred and the breeders of the silver dogs subsequently registered them as chocolates.
Do grey Labs shed?
Their fur has the same texture and appearance as any other Lab. It is short, straight, dense and is delightful to pet. They have a thick, double coat that sheds heavily throughout the entire year.
