Labrador Retriever puppies

Labs are friendly, steady dogs that are easy to train and famously good with children, which is a good part of why they have stayed one of America's favorite family breeds for decades. They love water and a game of fetch, and they do best with room to run and people who want them along. Syracuse is in northern Indiana, about two and a half hours from Chicago and less than an hour from the Michigan state line.
