Their psyche is stable, and you can try to get character and external data by crossing a Labrador with suitable types of dogs, although the results may be unexpected.

When crossing a Labrador with other breeds of dogs, it is difficult to predict what kind of character the future pet will have. Usually such a mixture gives mestizos with good mental characteristics and the best qualities taken from their parents.

• With a shepherd dog. By mixing these breeds, you can get a livable dog with a non-aggressive character, but at the same time with protective qualities. He will be happy to play with children, using his irrepressible energy. The dog will get along with other pets, but he will not let the stranger out of the yard, showing his character of a defender. Labronemen are very loyal, and although they welcome any family member, they choose one master and listen only to his commands.

It is believed that mestizo got hypoallergenic qualities of wool from poodles, they can be kept by people suffering from allergies. Families with children often have such dogs, as they become wonderful nannies. A puppy can inherit length, color and type of coat from either parent.
• WITH rottweiler... The strong skeleton of a Labrador retriever bears a certain resemblance to that of a Rottweiler. But puppies that are a cross between these breeds are not popular today. The absolute opposite of the characters of the parents makes it possible to get an unpredictable result. To breed a non-aggressive docile hybrid, more than one generation of dogs should be worked out by crossing.
