I know they say it's better not to reveal these details with some patients, and that I wouldn't know, but I suspect it could be true. I can only say that since my pdoc has been totally honest with me that I have a much better working relationship with him than I've ever had with my prior ones.
By admin on May 13, 2009 in Labrador Health. If you are new dog owner, especially a Labrador owner, you will be will quite anxious to know how to take care of your little bundle of joy and also its life expectancy. So here is some information caring for a Labrador Retriever. The life span of a healthy Labrador is anything between 10 to 13 years. Some Labradors also live up to the age of 14. You may have noticed that I used to word healthy Labradors. This is because Labradors can be prone to diseases.
According to most dog-life-span charts, Labs typically live about 12-13 years. Labs are susceptible to a variety of ailments, most prevalent being hip displasia.rthritis is very common in labradors, mine has it and has trouble in winter. We keep him warm and don't take him out as often, it seems to help, but I honestly don't think he's going to last until this winter :(14 is elderly for labradors, 12 - 14 is the common age. Can be more, can be less, but this is the average.
