The breed does not owe its name to Labrador. The ancestor of the breed was used in Canada as a human companion during hunting and fishing. It helped Canadian fishermen in all varieties of activities. That black dog also called Newfoundland or St. John's Dog, almost perished at the turn of the 18th century. Happily enough, English dog fanciers bred it to other Retrievers and improved the breed. Labrador Retrievers not only survived but also acquired a great popularity in Great Britain and US.
