Labrador Retriever History began upon the island of Newfoundland, in the province of Newfoundland and Labrador, a northerly region of Canada. It is here that the ancestors of today’s Labs lived and bred.

It’s widely believed that human settlers in the late 1500s to the island of Newfoundland brought working dogs along with them, to help with tasks in hunting and fishing.

Through ad-hoc breeding of these early settlers dogs, likely a random mix of working dog breeds from the British Isles and Portugal, many Canadian working water dog breeds were developed:

The Chesapeake Bay Retriever
The Landseer
The flat-coated Retriever
The Greater Newfoundland
And most importantly, The Lesser Newfoundland, also known as St. Johns Dog, and widely accepted as the breed from which modern-day Labrador Retriever history stems.
