Obedience lessons are totally necessary in order to make the dog well.... obedient.
That is does not pull on the leash. Responds to commands etc. Fence off veg. garden or it will be eaten. My black lab used to dig up bulbs in the garden too.
Dog must be walked a lot. Not happy unless they get their exercise. They will eat anything so they need chew toys. Your daughter will enjoy this lab. They are great as long as they are disciplined. They will eat all the food you put in front of them. Enjoy!
