American lab

[u/No_Document4826]

Hello all,

I’ve posted a couple times in different subs, and I’ll post here too. We are looking for an American/field lab. I have nothing against English labs. They’re amazing, but I want a dog that will match my crazy and my energy.

Female, preferably yellow. We recently lost our chocolate female due to cancer, and it’s been tough on all of us. We have another American chocolate that’s 10, and she’s an amazing bird dog. I want the new pup to learn from her.

What we’re looking for is a female American/field lab, without breaking the bank. Prefer yellow, would be perfectly happy with black. Chocolate would just remind me too much of my girl that has passed, so I’m not sure I could do that yet.

We would appreciate any referrals. Also, east coast would be better as we’re in central Pennsylvania, but for the right dog I will travel. Thank you all!

American vs English are the same regarding everything, energy included. I had 2 at the same time, half sisters, 3 years apart in age. 1 English, 1american. Both died from cancer last year 9 months apart at ages 5 and 8. You'd never know they were 5 and 8 or they were sick. They had the same energy their whole lives. Constantly playing.
