Yeah. I'm a fag and probably a nigger too. but I am MATI. Having trained or handled over 60 doggo's in AKC sanctioned Conformation Shows, my heart bleeds for the poor choco lab. Labs, though not my breed, are one of the natural "people pleaser" breeds. If treated well, they are some of the most loving, forgiving, energetic and trainable breeds. They are also pretty sensitive. It doesn't take too much to break their spirit. Also, from the photos of this pup, it is not an animal that would be suited for Conformation Shows, it does not display Conformation standards for a Labrador. It may be a fine pupper, it just does not appear to be of a certain quality. I wonder if it is UKC or AKC papered. I am not a dog snob, but I just wonder at any breeder who would choose to sell a dog to Yaniv. Is the pup a shelter rescue?
If this report on the dogs behaviour is accurate, it suggests a pup who is severely lacking in the proper training in socialization. All dogs need to be socialized and acclimatized to many different people and animals, situations, smells, sounds, on and off leash, so the handler can be assured to always have the animal under control and for the animal to have an enjoyable and rewarding outing.
I would take this pup from Yaniv in a heartbeat, and try to undo whatever damage has already been done.
