Labrador Retriever Puppies For Sale in Newark

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 decrease loneliness in children.

When the older child (children) go off to school, often younger siblings experience loneliness and are sad from missing the older child.  A family dog can serve as a companion and friend.  A playful dog provides security that one is not alone, especially when Mommy is busy and cannot spend time reassuring the child.  Children who come home to an empty house and have to wait for parents or other siblings to return have someone to share their time with.  If they’ve had a bad day, they know that they can tell any secret to their canine friend.  By having someone to talk to and play with, your child feels much more secure and less anxious about being alone.
