When we move, C wants a dog. This is something she has been asking for consistently for almost a year now, and as husband does not like them, we never got one.
I would love to get her one when we move, and I have a huuuuge yard so in a position to do it.

She has said she wants a lab (pointed them out), a black one.
I have never had a lab, only Shepherds, so no idea what I am looking for in a dog. I would prefer to get a puppy that she (I lol) can train and will live hopefully, for the rest of her childhood.

Does anyone have any info for me? Breeder recommendations etc? And how much am I expecting to pay?

TIA!
