I am a labrador breeder and I have charcoal and silver coats on my labradors. I do not know what happened so many years ago as I wasn't there and neither were any of you. However, I have entered into my kennel business with labradors who have these coat colors as well as with labradors that have the "traditional" black, yellow and chocolate (if you can in good conscience call yellow and chocolate traditional). They have the same behavior, temperment and drive that the others here do. I do not have dogs with skinny bodies and huge elephant ears. Posting for the first time here I do not know how to add a pic or I would. Mom and Dad are labs, as are grandparents and great grandparents etc. I do know that there is now a dilute red labrador as well and what I do not get is if the labrador retriever was blended with the chessie and others in the past then they are already all half breeds so to speak. [URL]http://www.labradornet.com/typecast.html[/URL] It seems to me that the statements you guys have made seem to say "here was a genetically pure breed and you guys screwed it up," without acknowledging that the labrador is already muddied with other breeds as are many other purebreed AKC registered show champion and field trial champion dogs. The yellows and chocolates came in from somewhere and weren't accepted at that time, don't tell me you believe that out of nowhere a chocolate or yellow was produced from two totally pure black labrador lines.
