Labs come in three colors

Not sure how much of an issue it is over in England, but right now in the US we have a good number of back-yard breeders and puppy mills producing another variation of the "designer breeds".

Using names like silver, champagne, white, charcoal and I'm sure a good deal more to sell these pups at outrageous prices to uneducated buyers. Fact is, the Labrador comes only in three colors: Black, Yellow - from cream to fox red, and Chocolate - light/dark.

If you're searching for a pup and see any other color used to describe a Lab than those three, turn and run the other way.

Here is the Labrador Retriever Parent Club's official stance on the matter as well:

Even though the kennel club register foxred as yellow, I still class foxred as a colour in its own right, but thats just me.

As long as you don't go and breed them and try and market as some "rare" color in order to make $$$$, that's all well and good Andy.

I don't plan on breeding trixe especialy as she has a weight problem at the moment, and the vets are not sure what it is, we just know its not the pancreas.
