Our Labrador Darby is the most docile and loving dog we've ever had. He gets along with EVERYONE. There is not an aggressive bone in his body. Our home is spacious with a fenced in shady yard. It is you're preference where you would like them to spend their time. It is a one story, so no stairs to climb if your pup has hip or joint issues. My wife and I work from home, this gives us the freedom to go for walks in the neighborhood the beach ( if you're comfortable). Darby will chase the ball and play all day. So you're pup will be entertained and happy. You're baby will be spoiled while in our care.
