Simply the best magazine ever for those who live with and love Labrador retrievers! Welcome to the world of the family Labrador retriever – the black, yellow, or chocolate dog who sleeps on the good furniture when you aren’t looking; who greets you at the door each evening after work with a soggy tennis ball; and who follows you from room to room, always close, in case you need a friendly ear to scratch.

How about a little reading material? We'd be grateful to send you a no-obligation issue of Just Labs! This little guy is begging you! The September/October issue will be mailing in a couple of weeks. If you are not a subscriber, visit http://justlabsmagazine.com/no-obligation-issue-request/ to sign up to receive it!
What is your favorite thing to do in these long days of summer? I'm discovering -- during this work-at-home time -- that it's enjoying a cup of coffee early in the morning sitting on the deck with the Labs stretched out around me.
I'm not begging, honest. But if I WERE begging... would it work?
From a frequent contributor to the magazine: Hey, all you Lab owners. I'd love to interview someone whose Lab has experienced pancreatitis, diabetes, and/or osteoarthritis for an article. Just think, maybe your dog's story could grace the pages of Just Labs magazine. I appreciate your help. Thanks!

What is your Lab doing right now that is driving your crazy? For me: Ginny barks at everything, Cici hides shoes, and Bulleit drags his smelly blanket all over the house like Linus!
Success! My Lab, Bulleit, has always dropped whatever it is he's fetching a few feet in front of me. I want to train him up to be a hunting dog eventually -- he's a drop-out from Leader Dog school -- and I need him to come all the way in and sit without letting go. Using some of Amy Dahl's soft-fetching methods along with blending some other "hold" training I've done in the past -- and a whole lot of patience -- this boy now comes all the way in to heel and sits and holds until I tell him to give. And he's so proud of himself when he does it! Is there a training skill you've conquered this summer?--Jake Smith, Editor

From the Editor: Obviously, depending on when you receive your next issue, our world looks a little differently compared to when we toasted the New Year and welcomed in 2020. Whether that look is dramatically different or not remains to be seen, and seems to change with each day’s news releases, stock market fluctuation, and social media theory.
We could fill up these pages, of course, with articles and advice on what you need to be doing with your dogs right now in light of our new, shared realities; but I think that applying some of the general recommendations and, in some cases, executive orders to your immediate family – dogs included – is common sense.
Therefore, I’d like to use our pages to continue to remind you of OUR world – the world of Labrador retrievers, family, tradition. It’s a world untainted – at least in our minds – by the trappings of the “real world”; and if, for right now, we can only read about it and dream, then I feel that’s our duty here at the magazine. To give you that opportunity.
So our plan – in contrast to just about everything else out there at the moment – is not to change much from what we’ve shared and celebrated in these pages for years and years, that is, the happiness and optimism that our Labs bring to us. Perhaps that bit of consistency and normalcy is just what we need right now.
Sincerely,
Jason Smith
