Normally I wouldn’t think that photographing a black Lab against a black background would work, but somehow this one does.  The white lettering caught my eye and the light coming from the left was just perfect.  The Labrador Retriever was the #1 dog registered with the AKC  in 2010 which is the 20th straight year that the Lab took the top honors!  #2 was the German Shepherd and #3 the Yorkshire Terrier.  It’s no wonder the Lab is always #1!  They are sweet, intelligent, love kids and enjoy being wherever the family is.  They are also a great sporting dog!  What’s not to love about a Lab?
