About the aging Labrador Retriever. Since the average life span of a Labrador is 10-12 years, you must consider a 7-8 year old Labrador aged and in the later one third of his life.
One of the most popular dog breeds in America, Canada and the UK is the Labrador Retriever. The Labrador makes a wonderful pet as the breed is generally considered friendly and well-balanced. With regular exercise, a healthy diet and lots of love, the Labrador can live to be 10-12 years old, although some are fortunate enough to reach 13 or 14. A common belief that 1 human year is equal to 7 dog years is not accurate, since dogs reach adulthood within the first two years of their life.
