Anyway know if there is such a thing as an "English" lab as compared to....A non-English type? I have a yellow lab. She is a 2 year old female with a low, broad stature; quite heavy boned, rather large head. Where I live, people seem to WANT to distinquish between "English" and "non English" types. English type being the "original," PREFERRED type. Breeders I have spoken with say there is no such thing as an "English" lab vs. "American" I understand that labs were originally named English retrievers, and that their lineage was of a Newfoundland and ??? (Nothing English about them) I've noticed in lab books that the field trial type seem to be taller, longer in length, not as heavy boned. Can anyone clarify. Carrie, I need your expert advice!!
