By Krystal Branch

The Labrador Retriever hails from Newfoundland in Canada. The St John's Water dog worked with fisherman catching fish that came loose, and jumping into the freezing water to pull in nets. Brought to England in the 1800's, they were crossbred with Setters, Spaniels, and other Retrievers to increase their hunting abilities.
