Congratulations!
Already some great suggestions but you might decide otherwise on some. We never crate trained, but did have a designated area trained to stay on command. A padded bed or other worked well and they quickly know its theirs. Our beloved female lab of fourteen years was hard to lose. Hip displaysia set in and shortened any more quality of life. I could only suggest that there is a tendency or difference of temperment between a female and male. Other habits and curiosity might surprise you or test your patience, ex. the first time you catch them eating fecal or steal that frozen t-bone defrosting in the sink... LOL.. but for a lab, they are easy to work with and obey... as long as the hard love and reward is consistent. Remarkable creatures that sometimes with just eye contact seem to read ones mind. Enjoy her!
