    Had a lab-kelp cross... deep glossy black coat. Most in danger was anything on the coffee table when his tail would whip around in joy. Scared of kittens he was. Lived till 17.

    Got to say, dogs with a bit of lab in them are very affectionate. Kelpie... makes them a bit more energetic and liable to jump up and down however. I would go for a lab cross, as they live longer and get less health issues.

    One day I will have a house with a large enough yard to get one.

    Amen, Brothah-man. "Beirut, meet Lobo. Lobo and Beirut, meet Shadow. Show 'er where the ropes (and the food dishes) are, will ya fellas?".

    A fine eulogy, Hosakawa Tito.

    @ Papewaio: ain't it funny how a Lab will cross with any breed, Chihuahua to Great Dane - they're truly the UN of canine-world. We could learn lessons, there. Based on BDC's comment
    Every country needs its own dog breed and/or specific alcoholic drink...
    in the 30years war Redux thread , I know wonder if there is an Iraqi, or indeed, Arab, or MiddleEastern breed of dog distinct enough to breed with a Liberal Labrador. :)
