Why do the Labs walk on leash?

The Labs get asked why they always hike on leash. They instructed their human staff to answer…with a video recorded at Lab height. So here is one humorous and 2 serious reasons why we keep the Labs on leash while hiking. 1. Leashed Labs help pull Ben up the steep hills 😹. 2. The Labs make poor decisions. If they run off to chase a deer or other wildlife, they put themselves, and their humans, at risk of injury (or of getting lost in the woods). 3. We love them! We want to keep them safe, healthy, and ready to walk another day.

Move more. Move often. Move with dogs…safely.
