I read somewhere that the chocolate lab is the most accident prone breed of all

I was gonna say does colour make a difference? I dont know how a chocolate lab could be more accident prone than a yellow or black seems daft to me although I appreciate your only reciting what was written elsewhere just seems odd lol.

Its a load of rubbish laura, There is no difference in temperment between blacks , yellows and chocs!

my childhood black lab was in the vets countless time, she fell from our roof terrace one time, walked into many trees, sooo clumbsy!
But then my choccie was so calm and sensible!

Very true mand!
