The Rose City Labrador Retriever Club supports our parent club, the Labrador Retriever Club, Inc. in their "Only 3 Colors" effort. The purpose is to educate buyers that recognized coat colors for purebred Labrador Retrievers are only black, yellow, and chocolate. Buyers are led to believe that dogs with silver or dilute coat color are desirable, purebred, and rare, and justify a premium purchase price. Let's help get the message out that these dogs are not!
We encourage those interested in the future of the Labrador Retriever to read
