Labrador Retriever Puppies For Sale in Jackson, Miss.

According to registration statistics recently released by the American Kennel Club® (AKC), the Labrador Retriever is the most popular purebred dog in America for the 21st straight year. More than twice as many Labs were registered than any other breed making it a likely leader for many years to come.

In a recent article, a licensed professional counselor for more than twenty-five years, explained how owning a Lab can help produce healthier, happier, more well adjusted children. Here is an excerpt from her article:

Dogs are great stress relievers for children.

According to a study from SUNY Buffalo (2010), married couples subjected to various types of stressful tasks who were allowed to see their dogs before or after the task, had the lowest responses to stress than those who didn’t.  Imagine the effects on family life when the stress levels of parents go down. Children who have a dog feel more secure about home safety and going to sleep in the dark.  One of the greatest stresses on children is night fears.  To have this overcome, or lessened, is a great benefit to relieving stress.  For children who are having any sort of difficulties at school, but especially thoughts and concerns over being liked or accepted, having a dog as a companion that loves you unconditionally is positive and brings with it a good feeling and alleviates symptoms of depression.

• The Jackson area was originally inhabited by Native Americans of the Choctaw and Chickasaw peoples. A French-Canadian trapper, Louis Le Fleur, built a trading post near the present city center in the early 1790s. In 1821 it became the state capital and was named in honor of Andrew Jackson , then a military hero for his campaigns in the South against the British and Native Americans and later the nation’s seventh president.
• Jackson has been called Chimneyville ever since Sherman burned it to the ground, everything, when the Union troops passed through near the end of the Civil War. Our craftman’s guild in the state is called the Chimneyville Craftman’s Guild.
• The distance from Jackson to Washington DC is 893 miles. The distance to the Mississippi state capital is miles. (as the crow flies).
