labrador
Friendly family dog
Labrador is a region of northeastern Canada forming the mainland portion of Newfoundland and Labrador province.
The name appears most often in compounds: Labrador retriever (usually shortened to Lab), the popular breed of dog developed there, and Labrador Current, the cold ocean current flowing south from the Arctic.
We got a black labrador puppy last spring.
The lowercase form typically refers to the dog breed informally.
