no need to call them stupid, if you’re uneducated in relating to dogs, you simply will fail, but you’re not stupid…..i watched because i’m currently training my 6 mo border colllie rescue, talk about energy. Puppies only know what you’ve taught them, even though i completely understand this i’ll catch myself remembering i hadn’t taught a specific thing. She’s so smart, learns quickly. When we’re playing fetch while I’m working on my garden she brings her ball into the garden room where i’m working and puts the ball on her toy shelf so it’s easy for me to reach. Sometimes she brings the ball and tge chuckker hoping to convince me it’s time for fetch. We’re working on walking and i think of how many people would give up on her, but it takes work to teach a dog behaviors, so i think of people just not understanding that dogs, like us as children, need instruction on behaving, as children we were taught how to cope, calm down, can’t return children to the shelter so children who don’t get this training are also a problem, they’re possibly the owners returning dogs to the shelter.

At least they were smart enough to surrender the dog rather than have it chained in the back yard for years.

I have a pure bred yellow lab. He is five years old. The first two years are the hardest as they are high energy sporting dogs. He was VERY easy to train....food driven and they want to please. People, please research the breed before getting a dog.

I have an English lab I almost gave up on also at eight months but when I looked at his face I just knew there had to be SOMETHING I could do to get control. I found Charlie’s K Nine Camp for a 12 day in board training. Charlie and his assistant were very clear what my job was after the 12 days and I’ve made sure I didn’t let him down. He will be two on July 1st and he’s getting better and better but it’s not been easy so I agree with petiteme1960. Make certain this is the dog for you so you don’t have to break the dogs heart and abandon it. Labs are the number two re-homed dogs second only to pit bulls.

I also have a pure bred yellow lab he is now 11 years old we have had him since he was two where we adopted him from the shelter. I learned there are two types of labs the first type is basically like Marley from the movie Marley and me I don’t know if you have seen it but if you were interested in adopting a Labrador retriever you should see it everybody should see it the second type of labrador retriever is docile which is basically the type of Labrador retriever I have. Both personalities are wonderful and we can all learn a thing or two about unconditional love from one of the best breeds on Earth…… The Labrador retriever!!!!!!

I got my energetic ( now 6.5 year old ) pure blood yellow lab at one year old from a good home. He was potty trained for outside. I never did intense training on any of my prior dogs. I'm retired now but when I got this lab I was still working. When at work I left him in one bedroom with windows and gate. He also could see downstairs. Then 2 rooms, then all of upstairs. By 6 months he could roam 90% of home in my absence. In 2 years he roams 100% of home in my absence. He goes outside 6 to 10 times a day. I shut door but never lock door so he comes back in within 3 to 10 minutes. Im watching from inside. He was a challenge for while but I knew he'd mellow out. Still has energy. I'm totally against caging dogs.

I just put down my lab mix the other day. I loved every single moment of my 15 years with him. Labs are just pure joy. He was the embodiment of finding happiness in the little things, and loved the world.

I am sorry for your loss. I know how hard it is to lose a four legged family member . I lost my first lab 12 1/2 years ago three days after his 13th birthday. Nothing can replace them. I now have two labs, a ten and a six year old. Their personalities are vastly different. Each one is like half of my first lab in their quirks, demeanor, and personality.

You are not alone. We lost our 14 year old lab late last week, and it is a death in the family complete with grief and heartache. He was my best friend, and my wife's baby. We'll adopt another Lab when the time is right as it is the only breed we've ever owned.

Aw, he’s such a happy fella! My 1 year old female yellow lab is super high energy and extremely smart! It takes a huge amount of patience, training, and exercise to help these lovely creatures reach their full potential.

Exactly my experience.

my heart swelled with love the moment I set eyes on that beautiful dog.

That will be an excellent doggo. Observe how he right away looked up into the face of his new guardian, as they left the shelter. Within a few weeks he will have perfect manners, thanks to the guidance he receives, and somebody will be lucky to welcome a lovely pet into their homes.

I have two labs, a white and a brown, yes they have a lot of energy, one is now 7 and the other is 5, we got them as pups from 8 and 7 weeks old, they both are rescues and they are so sweet and well behaved, very well trained and very loving, no better dog then a lab, they are smart and no dogs to be locked up, they are my joy and my support.

Omg they are nothing but a bucket of love and snuggles. Love my lab

I rescued my Labrador from South Korea... we still live here in my apartment. It's not the best situation but we're doing our best. Loved the video 👏

I recently Lost my lab, I would take this boy immediately!!! They are just wonderful dogs! I went for 4 years twice a week on training with them, I had two and now just one, they just loved the training! Good luck for this boy!!

Just look how often this dog is looking up, checking in with the people in his vicinity. He’s absolutely people focused.

I love labs, but then, I'm happy to take a 5 mile walk every day plus half an hour of fetch. They are puppies at heart till they're about six!

Gorgeous dog. Looks pretty normal for a field Lab puppy. He'll become an attention getter in the right hands.

I got 2 lab pups at the same time. It’s was crazy the first 6 months. Took hours and hours to train them but now they listen, most of the time! 😂

I was feeling down but watching this has cheered me up, thankyou

I have a black lab named Benny, and he is just the sweetest little thing ever!!! 💕💕💕 I’ve had two other black labs in the past (RIP Arthur and JoJo) and Benny is every bit as sweet as both of them ❤ He is about a year and a half old and he is very vibrant, energetic, and adorable. We adopted him from a lab rescue center just a few weeks ago and before being rescued he was apparently a stray dog, but you wouldn’t think he was ever a stray because he sure doesn’t act like one. Benny absolutely loves meeting people and other dogs and just loves being social. I’ve only ever owned labs (specifically black labs) and they are the sweetest dogs to ever grace this planet. I can’t imagine ever giving up on a lab, they are so loyal and easy to love 💕 Honestly the only reason I can think of to give up a dog is if unexpected extenuating circumstances happen, like if the owner passes away or if the owner suddenly starts having health problems that prevent them from being able to care for the dog. In which case they should surrender the dog responsibly, like bringing them to a (reputable) shelter or rehoming them to another family that will take good care of them. Nobody should ever dump their dog into the streets.

I'm addicted to the Lucky Dog show, there isn't a better show on TV . But I always cry in the end...tears of joy! It's my hope & dream that someday I can get a doggie form Brandon.

What a good story, and he IS a very lucky dog.

I has a lab, golden mix. Best buddy I ever had. Miss him everyday

What an awesome trick to make your point that "calm" will get further in dog life. Thanks for sharing the harness @ a pole technique, Brandon McMillan!

Thank you for being an Educated, Thoughtful, Reasonable Trainer who is Gentle with these Beautiful Creatures! :)

I have a pure bred yellow lab. She’s a year old. I’ve had labs my whole life. She’s the most energetic dog I’ve ever had my whole life. She’s high strung to the point she has stressed herself and caused idiopathic tremors. We are trying to train her. That being said, she loves everyone and everything. She spent some time with an emergency vet (from the tremors) and the vet declared “she’s my new best friend” Definitely food oriented. Lol Bad separation anxiety which we are working on.

Love heals all! Know the breed and what you're able and willing to do.

i had a lab with the same name, absolutely precious.. was put down/died a year and a half ago since he had been suffering some coughing and back legs problems and my mother couldn’t watch him suffer, so she and my older brother(for who the dog was bought) decided to put him down, or in simpler terms was decided to put him to sleep.

So good to see Brandon back here. He works wonders for dogs. I wish I could train with him.

I'm so happy, he was adopted by his new dad, so knowledgeable of labs. and their training. They are wonderful puppies!. So smart, playful, loving and caring companions. We have had labs. for the last 20-25 years and although, their energy level is so high, specially when they are growing up,. they are wonderful family members! God bless you!

We currently have 3 Labs...they arent hard to train. You have to be patient and spend a bunch of time with them. Constantly talk to them and interact with them.

So kind a human.You will be blessed.

Thank you for saving this pup.

Glad you took Tim's helping this puppy

Labs, 1 of the 2 greatest breeds on earth!!!

That was brilliant.Much love and respect from Uk x

unbelievable someone dumped him, mine lived till he was 14 yrs old, I so miss him still

I would adopt him in a heartbeat. I have a black lab now(female), and had a yellow lab for 15 years(female, 2000-2015). He would get lots of frisbee chasing, and swim as much as he wants. Labs are such good natured dogs. Will always have one if I have a dog.

He is and will become be an angel!

Dog owners should watch how you do this. Just takes a relatively small amount of patience and persistence that pays off in spades.

I got my Skye from a rescue centre in Plymouth UK. She was 1 year old. Not trained at all. My wife had her trained in basic commands within days. Quick learner. She is a great dog and very loyal. She's 4 now and I must say she is the best dog i've ever owned.

I've heard it so many times ... there are no bad dogs, just bad owners.

Aw, what a sweet heart!

Great job.....thanks for saving this great dog!!

Miss this guy on Sat am. He has very good chemistry with dogs.

GOD BLESS YOU FOR SAVING HIM THANK YOU

He is smart, sweet and energetic like all labs. Mine just needed extea exercise until he was 5. They help keep you in shape!

I now have an 3 month old chocolate lab. We spend a lot of time outdoors. I run the energy out of her. Toys, treats and extra loving goes a long way. She is very energetic and now knows sit, choose, stay, come, leave it, gentle and ride. I am having a tougher time with leash walking and house training. Every day is an adventure. I knew what I was getting in to. My whole life and routine has changed. She is my everything. I have a lot of work to do!

I wish that all who choose to have a dog realise that you need to train them. Kindly. The results of the training is a much happier dog and a much happier human.

We got a shitzu, perfect dog for us. Love her

I have a 13 week one at home, labs are just so beautiful

I love this show! I love you so much unconditionally precious little puppy

labradors are awesome,smart dogs

That was interesting. Takes a lot of skill to train a dog it looks like. I would like to learn how to do that. Great video.

It also helps to have another dog that they can burn energy with. My chocolate lab was a pretty chill pup but when he began getting wild, we threw the dogs outside and they burned off that energy quick which made him easy to train.

I have 3 labs. They are the best dogs but like any animal, you have to love and exercise them every single day

Oh, I wanted to see the transformation! 😘🇨🇦

Great 😊 training tips 💕

Why can I find and adopt a dog like this? I would adopt a Labrador Retriever in a heartbeat.....................

This is exactly how my black lab is right now but I couldn’t imagine giving my dog away.

Crying watching this,

I can’t get mad at the owners turning in that Labrador. Because I have a Labrador which is 8 months old and he is very destructive. He chases my cats, destroyed my bed, destroyed my remote control, my glasses and and his bed I bought him and not any dog bed but a foam mattress dog bed and I had him toys to chew on. And I take him walks to get energy out and let him play in the backyard but he still act up. I mean I try to do the best with him, so I’m sure the prior owner went the same thing I went through if so I can’t blame them . I just thank GOD that I have a lot of patience. I already prayed to the good LORD to put grace in him, so hopefully I will see it as he gets older because I don’t know how to train a dog , I just know how to bond with it.

My daddy always told me "First thing you gotta understand when you are training an animal, you have to be smarter than the animal. Some people are just stupid sweetie" 🤣

Beautiful dog🇺🇸👵🏻

Im always amazed how fast people give up on dogs. Puppies are babies and toddlers- give them a couple years to chill and of training. Sawyer deserves better.

beautiful dog .... Labs are one of the easiest dogs to train ... you just have to put the work in ... Labs are food oriented... as long as you have food at the ready, you're good to go ... when they get good enough, just ween them off the food... i love Labs ... one of my favorite dogs

I have Labrador and that is very energetic and hyper. I took him on a 30 min walk and let him run in the back yard for 30 min daily. Now he is not as hyper and a little more calm. It’s really not much of training. Owners just got get off there ass and do stuff with the dog.

I’ve told many people that if you are lazy, then you don’t want a puppy. All puppies have energy and it’s cruel to force a puppy to sit on the couch all day.

I completely agree. my family had a yellow one for fourteen years. for the first 2 and a half years. she was in the puppy phase 🙂🙂

what a good doggo 😊

Labs are the best dogs in the world.

I now have an Australian Cattle Dog. She is a rescue, she was dumped near a cousins place - pregnant! She had the puppies and she's been spay - now for the training. She's ok on leash but needs work on other commands. She is super smart and will get them I have no doubt.

My 12 month old lab puppies has lots of energy. But he a a beautiful boy who is training to become a therapy puppy and he will come to work with me at school. He doesn’t have a aggressive bone in his body. Sad when we as humans let animals down.

A man who owned a dog, I believe named Marly, wrote that there are different strains of Labs, calm and energetic. His dog, though he tried to carefully research, he missed the hyper part and had a heck of a time working with him. There is also the concept of "a tired dog is a happy dog", they do need (miles) of exercise. Nice work.

…that is one perfect dog…

It's usually the owners that need training.

this is why one should be educated on the dog breed especially the challenging aspects before they are allowed to get the dog

Good job

i feel like labradors' excellent reputation actually does them more harm than good. so many people are under the impression that they're an "easy dog". there is no such thing as an easy dog. these are incredibly high-maintenance pets that need a lot of work, dedication, training, socialisation, care, and so on - no matter the breed. my lab is the light of my life, but as someone who studies & works in animal care i always make a point to tell people that a LOT of people just don't have the right sort of living situation/personality/commitment/etc. to own a dog, and also to explain the specific difficulties that come with labradors.
