Nutrition of Labrador
You can feed both dry food and natural foods, but these should be separate meals. Food buy high-quality, natural and balanced. Among the natural products should be meat, cereals, dairy products, oils and chicken eggs.
Labrador can be kept both in the apartment and in a large country house. The only nuance of living in an apartment is that the dog will need frequent, active walks.
The care in general is quite simple. It is enough to bathe a pet 2-3 times a year, preferably combed out at least once a week (except for the molting period, when the number of procedures should be increased to 1 time per day). Ears, claws and eyes do not require close attention. It is enough to wipe the ears with eyes regularly, and cut the claws as necessary. As for the health of the teeth, then it should be treated with full responsibility: as soon as possible you should teach your puppy to brushing your teeth.

This dog can not be called the ideal guard because of its friendly disposition and the complete absence of aggression. Salvation and help are what they really are.
