I don't really see the "more moderate" that we keep hearing about.

What? Did Rusty the 11-stone Lab get his green card to compete at Westminster as a tuneup for Crufts?

Or did the Labs have an eating contest at the Gah'den before conformation with ol' Russ as canine celebrity judge and you know..."roll" model?

What about this pup, just turned 5 months and is 50 lbs.,any bench potential? Not the best of photos, just the only standing profile that I have of him and taken 15 minutes ago.

Here is a photo of the BOB Lab:



He really is a very moderate dog (I've been to several all-breed and specialty shows, so I've seen very very type-y Labs). He has a nice length of leg, no overdone angles front or rear; nice reach of the neck; nice level topline; beautiful head. I think he looks more like the Labs of the past than many Labs do now on both sides of the show/field divide. Whether he can get a MH or not (not even thinking about field trials), I don't know... that is the unfortunate thing.

I just don't get it, if any of those dogs are 80lbs or UNDER, I'll eat a bowl of pedigree myself for supper!

They are just too fat! :shock: I don't care if they are short!


Short and fat regards, :wink:

Yes, he is nice looking, but he isn't quite 2 years old. I am glad the judges chose a more moderate dog, but is he more moderate because he is so young???
Heading in the right direction regards,

I suspect he is moderate because of his age. Witness, his bone is too fine relative to his body. Age (and perhaps exercise) will likely correct that, then he won't be so "moderate."

I also dislike his head, although it is the type that wins in conformation today. His stop is too pronounced, and the planes are not parallel, and overall the lines are just too square. At least his ears are correctly sized, or he could be possibly confused with a Rottie.

That is a great point. There is a male Lab that I absolutely loved from seeing his photos of when he was around 2 years old. I saw him at a specialty when he was 4 years old and could not believe my eyes that it was the same dog. He was so overdone; and he is used as a stud by so many. Makes me wonder what his get will look like as they age and the influence on the breed.

So sad. All these threads make me sad. So many people from each side trashing the other side. And I'm sad because I'll be looking for a puppy soon, and I really don't know what to do. I don't want a Lab that is either looking like a walrus or a greyhound; I don't want a Lab that cannot make it passed JH or a Lab that is so hot that I cannot manage him because of my inexperience. If only I could go back in time and get me one of the dual champion offsping... Sorry, just feeling blue, I guess.
