Gravity Feed Water Bowl
We like the gravity feed water bowls because you don't have to refill as often as a standard dish, however, not every brand is equal.
Aspen Pet Petmate Le Bistro Gravity Water Bowl
We prefer this brand as it makes the least spillover mess, but we do still use a pad beneath it for "walk-away" dribbles. It comes in 2.5 and 1 gallon options. I use the 2.5 gallon option for multiple dogs and for when dams are nursing and therefore drinking 3x their usual water intake. It gets refilled about every 3 days. I would recommend the 1 gallon option for a single dog home because the water can get stagnant if it sits too long. We clean ours with regular, unscented bleach between fillings. Any bleach residue left after rinsing, is not harmful to drink where other cleaners may be.

Food Bowl
You'll want a bowl with a wide base or a heavy bowl that can't be knocked over. A bowl is optional, many trainers recommend that you scatter the food out in the grass or snow so that the lab can hunt for its food like in the wild. This prevents gulping food, promotes digestion, and also entertains them for a while. There are various food dispensing toys and slow feeders available as well. When purchasing a bowl, always consider the material it is made of. The easiest to clean is the stainless steel. Food grade ceramics are also good and come in many styles and colours. The least favourite is plastic as they are harder to clean. When buying on Amazon, you need to watch the country of origin or stick with a reputable company, but pretty much every slow-feeder bowl will be plastic, and we do use plastic for the pups because they are easy to stack with pre-moistened food in the fridge.
Stainless Steel Bowls
-Cute paw print design.
-Rubber Non-Slip Base: keeps bowl stationary, the slip resistant rubber base also helps protect bare floors from damage and there is no noise.
-High-Quality Material Dog Bowls: safe stainless steel dog bowl, mirror polished, rust and corrosion resistant. The flat bottom prevents pets foods from falling over.
-Easy to clean: The rubber base can be removed. Dishwasher safe.

Starmark Treat Dispensing Chew Ball
Starmark has the best food dispensing ball out there in my opinion. You will see this ball again in the toy section as a favourite!

- -Virtually indestructible treat dispensing ball (We have had ours over 3 years)
- -Holds up to a cup of food (It was moderately difficult to fill due to the parts that prevent the food from falling out. There are toy filler tools you can buy, but we a found a plastic water bottle fit in the hole and cut the end off of it to pour 1 cup in.)
- -Extremely durable, dishwasher safe material

NuVet Vitamins and Supplements
NuVet
Some people like to pamper their pup and give daily vitamins. (Not us! LOL) So if that is you, here is a good quality vitamin. You won't find this one in stores, but I'm sure there are many comparable ones there.
NuVet® products were developed over a span of eight years by three veterinarians, a nutritional scientist, a pharmacist, and a physician who were fed up with sub-standard nutrition and nutritional supplements in the pet industry. Their goal was to develop a holistic natural supplement that would get to the source of the problem and not just treat the symptoms.
Using natural ingredients, NuVet Labs® utilizes cold processing so the ingredients rich nutrients are retained. They are also quickly absorbed by your pet's metabolism, providing the maximum effectiveness available.
Made in the USA, NuVet Labs® supplements are some of the few pet products made in an FDA Registered Facility using CGMP standards and contain solely natural ingredients. Virtually no other pet products are made this way, due to the expense and strict monitoring required.
NuVet® stands by its products by providing customers with a 60-day, 100 percent satisfaction guarantee. That’s a promise they can make because they’ve been giving consumers the best in nutritional supplements for their pets since 1997. At NuVet®, they are dedicated to offering products for pets that are safe, rich in nutrients and made to strengthen the immune system—helping your pet to live healthy and happy for years.
NuVet® offers a selection of products including:
Vitamins, Joint Supplements, Shampoo, Conditioner, Anti-itch spray, Ear Cleaner, and Stain &Odor Remover.

Collars and Leashes
When your pup first comes home you will need an 8-12 inch collar, (usually size small, but not in all brands so watch for the measurements). At maturity, your dog will need 17-24 inches depending on the build (usually size large). Over 90% of dogs you see in public do not have a correctly adjusted collar, most have them low on the neck close to the chest and back. Collars are meant to be snug to prevent your dog backing out of it. A properly adjusted collar should be around the neck close to the ears with enough space for only 2 fingers to be placed under the collar. Martingale collars are the same when not engaged and the two metal buckles should not be touching each other, but when pressure is applied, you shouldn't be able to place any fingers under the collar.
You're going to want a Martingale collar. This is the type that tightens and applies even pressure around the neck, but does not gag your pup if he gets caught on something or pulls to hard.
A collar with a belt buckle clasp is also a good choice and you can often find lots of colours and designs in these as well.
Snap together, adjustable collars are great for around the house and for fashion, but are not recommended for use with a leash. These collars often loosen over time, and the next thing you know your pup has slipped its collar and you are holding a leash with an empty collar as your pup dashes into the road after a squirrel. Check the collar weekly to ensure it is still snug.
We do not recommend harness until at least 2 years of age, as a harness takes the pressure off of your joints and puts it onto your pup's still developing joints! Training your pup to walk on a loose leash eliminates the need for a harness.

Country Brook Collars
Martingale-style collars give you gentle control over your pet. Designed for training purposes, this collar slips over the head and tightens when pulled. Traditional Martingale style collars do not feature a buckle. When properly adjusted, your pup will not gag or cough when pulling at the leash since pressure is applied evenly around the neck rather than just at the trachea. The Country Brook collar is made in the US and comes in 21 colours.

Ruffwear Harness
The Ruffwear harness has really good ratings, and I like that it doesn't go under the armpits (legpits?) which often causes discomfort or ill fit. Again, ONLY use harnesses on mature dogs, never on pups or young dogs.
-Made for extended wear: Versatile, lightweight, durable, and made for all-day outdoor adventures; Designed for easy leash transitions
-Continued innovation: Simplified girth adjustment with improved buckle; Four adjustment points for full range of motion; Easy access ID pocket for secure dog tag storage; New harness colors
-Padded for comfort: Foam-padded strips across the chest and belly provide equal load distribution and comfort when running, walking, or resting
-2 leash attachment points: Reinforced webbing at chest stands up to hard pulling and gives additional control; Aluminum V-ring centered on back
-Maximum visibility: Bright, easily visible fabric with reflective trim helps your dog stand out against any landscape, day or night

Leash
We recommend maximum of 6 foot length until your pup is fully trained.
We do not ever recommend retractable leashes; there are just way too many incidences reported where the retraction failed, the leash broke, etc. Use a regular leash or a long lead.

Black Rhino Double-handled Leash
We love our double handle leash. The short handle gives greater control when dogs, people, or cars are passing by, but also has the longer loop for loose leash walking. The Black Rhino 6-foot leash has 2 padded handles, is heavy duty and reflective for night time walks. It also has a poop bag dispenser and it matches the Black Rhino collars.

Seatbelt Tether
As with any life-saving device, go with quality over price. Tethers are meant to be used with harnesses only, not collars. Using with a collar can result in a broken neck. This is an optional item; we prefer to crate our dogs in the vehicle, but we have a minivan that fits 4 crates.
Kong Tether
This tether is a great quality product.
-SAFE TRAVEL: Travel restraint for dogs to keep them safe while on the go, opening car doors, or unloading.
-DISTRACTION-FREE DRIVING: Keeps your pet in place - preventing distractions while you drive.

Crates
Crate roughly 40 inches longx25 inches widex30 inches high. Watch the inches vs Centimeters as some brands use both or only one. Height is the most important number; you don't want your dog having to slouch when standing. We'd say 27"h at the very least for a female and 29"h at the very least for a male. We like crates with 2 door access as you can place the crate in any direction depending on the space that you have available. (With the puppy divider, you can only use the front door until it no longer needs the divider.) We recommend crating your pup when unsupervised until the 9-month teething is over. We leave our crates open during the day and the adults will go in them when they want the other dogs or pups to leave them alone. The best way to make the crate a great place to be is to feed them in their crates and sporadically leave treats to be discovered in there, as well as giving a treat whenever you put them in. (Before they start whining, otherwise they'll think they're being rewarded for whining.) You want to use the divider that comes with the crate or make one by drilling holes in the corners of a piece of plywood and zip tie or wire it in. You want the crate to be just big enough for the pup to turn around and stretch out, so there isn't room for going to the bathroom. It may seem too small, but remember your pup is used to sleeping in the middle of a dog pile, having close walls will make it feel more secure.

Dog Beds
Kuranda Dog Beds
Check out all the models of the Kuranda chew-proof raised beds on this website at https://dogbed.us/gypzyslabs. They have indoor and outdoor models as well as slim-line crate models (pictured here). We've had several puppy owners tell us they went through several 'cheap' models before buying the Kuranda. It would have been less costly if they had just bought the Kuranda right away. The Slim Line Crate Bed (low-profile that fits in the crate) 44x27 and 40x25, and the Aluminum or PVC 44x27 and 40x25 and 50x36 are the most popular. We had one customer tell us her dog prefers his larger 50x36 over his 40x25 because he can sprawl out more, but the space you have available will be the determining factor on the larger sizes. Please use our link to order. https://dogbed.us/gypzyslabs

Dog Gates
With a lab, you are going to want gates that affix to the door frame. Free-standing ones are much too easy for a lab pup to move or even knock over. You will also see ones with a cat door, and you'll think it's a great idea, until you realize most cats don't need a door because it is sitting perched on top of the gate tormenting the dog. We do recommend the taller (36" or more) pet gates over baby gates as an adult lab can easily jump a baby gate. If you are just using the gate temporarily while still a pup, then a baby gate will work. (The gates we have are roughly 36 and 39 inches tall.)
Regalo Easy Step Extra Tall Walk Thru Baby Gate: Bonus Kit, Includes 4-Inch Extension Kit, 4 Pack of Pressure Mount Kit and 4 Pack of Wall Cups and Mounting Kit, Comes in three colours: Black, Platinum, and White.
-EXTRA TALL: Stands 36 Inches Tall. Expands to fit openings between 29-34 and 35-36.5 inches wide. Please be sure measure your opening prior to purchase to ensure proper fit. Note: this gate will not fit an opening between 34 -35 inches due to the way the extender works.
-EASY TO USE AND SET UP: Pressure mount design that is quick to set up. Note: before installation there will be a gap between the gate latch and the frame which is NOT a defect and it is NOT bent. This gap will be eliminated once installed
-ADJUSTABLE: Includes a 4-inch wide extension kit and 4 pressure mount spindle rods. Perfect for doorway, hallway and bottom of stair use. Gate can quickly be removed out of the opening for easy storage
-DURABLE AND CONVENIENT: The all steel design is durable and convenient with a walk-through door. Certified to both JPMA and ASTM standards
-SAFETY CERTIFIED: Includes multiple safety-lock features, four wall cups for added security and mounting hardware.

Exercise Pen
Exercise pens are optional, and the model below is easy for an older pup to knock down. But we do LOVE our 10x10x6' dog runs from Peavey Mart. They do get two different models. We prefer the one with the extra bracing bar that runs across the fence at the halfway mark, but it is the more expensive one as well. (Our outdoor puppy play area is made up of 2 of these Peavey Mart pens joined together.
Pet Pen
We use this one only to prevent the pups from running out to the road while we lead them into their yard, but we would never leave them unattended in one of these. They can be pegged into the ground as well, but still, we do not find that strong enough on its own to prevent pups escaping. They are handy for containing young pups while you cook or do yardwork nearby and can still supervise the pup, but really a big crate without the divider is good for that too. (Why am I even putting these on here? I guess to tell you, don't bother, unless you are herding puppies! LOL.)

The best cleaner is a spray bottle with a mixture of 1 part white vinegar to 1 part water, or 1 part bleach to 1 part water. We also like the NatureClean Pet Stain and Odour Remover.

No Pee Pads
We do NOT recommend pee pads!!! Your Pup will already be learning to go pee outside; teaching it to go inside will confuse it and make housetraining take longer. See www.askthedogguy.com for a great housetraining guide, use code "Gypzy I" for 25% off.
Training
Gypzy's Labs does not agree with "Positive Reinforcement Only" training (and most trainers that claim to be 'Positive Reinforcement Only' actually use some of the other methods as well, just not in a very balanced manner). We believe in a Balanced Approach to training which falls in the center of the picture above.
We will use Positive Reinforcement and love on pups when they sit for us or are otherwise behaving themselves. We will use Positive Discouragement and tell a puppy, "No!" when it is biting a human or howling at night. We will push the pup down if it's jumping up on us or the door. We will use Negative Discouragement and ignore it if its begging for dinner or take away a stuffy or blanket away if it is shredding it (and we do not reward said pup's bad behaviour by 'immediately replacing it with a more appropriate toy'!) We will use Negative Reinforcement and pry its mouth open if it has a death grip on another pup or on clothing.
Its mama does all the same methods. She tells it, "No!", by using her growl, (they start growling at their pups and pushing them away when they are minutes old and trying to nurse while she is pushing out another pup), body posture, and quite often uses her teeth. She too will ignore it and move away from it if its trying to nurse when she's not interested. She also will push it down if it is jumping on her.
Its siblings also do the same methods. They tell it, "No!" in the same manner, but more ferociously than its mother does and often leads to the offended pup yelping and screaming, "Sorry" as it tries to get away from the onslaught of justice served.
If using a Balanced Approach doesn't seem appropriate to you, you're going to have to find a puppy that has been taken from its mother at birth and raised by hand by someone that doesn't mind being bit by shark teeth. Lolol. But... if you do find such a breeder, be prepared for all kinds of behavioural challenges as the pup will not know bite inhibition, hierarchy, elder respect, or any of the other behaviours that are learned by a Balance Approach and respect for the word, "No!"
Look for trainers that promote Balanced Approach training and run from ones that claim to be 'Positive Reinforcement Only'.

Toys (The part you are most interested in! LOL.)
Toys (Jolly Pet, Bionic, Chew King, Chuck-it, Kong, Tuff Dog are all good Lab toys, however the fuzzy tennis ball types rarely last no matter the brand. Here's some info from K9 Acedemy regarding toys and play time. When I saw this article, we were already using and recommending all the toys Anesh mentions, and he explains the 'how-to' well.
"Most first time owners are STIFF. They move like a terminator instead of a human being, which can be boring for the dog. If the dog wants to play, just play as if you were a kid.
The other mistake first time owners make is that they buy too many toys and leave them all laying around which heavily diminishes the value of everything.
Here is a short list of toys that I would recommend buying for a puppy, and when/how to use them.
1. 🧸 TUG - ENGAGEMENT ONLY
Never give a dog a tug toy unsupervised. It pretty much ruins the purpose of the toy. Tug toys are for dog - owner play time. Puppies should use a simple tug rag.
2. 🎾 BALL - ENGAGEMENT ONLY
I like the chuck it medley. It has a soft ball for puppies to grab, a squeaker and a hard ball. Make this as fun as possible for the pup if you want them to enjoy fetch.
3. 🐣TREAT DISPENSER - SUPERVISED
I like the starmark treat dispenser ball. I enjoy watching puppies roll these around the house as food falls out 🤣.
4. 🦴CHEW TOYS - PASSIVE
The Benebone puppy chew toys are great. I like to give these to puppies to chew on when teething as long as they know I handed it to them and they’re not being super annoying. This lets them chew as I do other things. Keep your eye on them as they can be ingested in rare cases.
5. 🥥 FILL TOYS - PASSIVE
The Kong series of puppy toys are good. Fill them with whatever you like and freeze them. Your dog can have them while they’re out or in the crate. Be mindful of their strength. These are marketed as “extremely durable” but I have seen them break. I like the CLASSIC KONG and the PUPPY TIRE." -Anesh, owner of K9Academy

Fetch Toys
You can't go wrong with Chuckit! Just avoid the fuzzy tennis-type balls. They are two halves glued together and they can be split if chewed just right. Dogs love the squeaker balls, but they usually get the squeaker out of them rather quickly, but the ball still lasts until it is lost. I've never had a lab chew through one. Starmark is another favourite. It also dispenses food.

The KONG Aqua is a floating retrieval toy that promotes fun and exercise both in and out of water. The KONG Aqua has a foam core that keeps it floating while your dog swims out to fetch it. The size of the Kong only comes in medium, which is good for this type of play. You want something that is easy to grab while in the water. The rope is made of a waterproof material that is easy to chew through. The Kong itself is durable but can be chewed through by more aggressive chewers. You're probably wondering why I'm recommending this product. LOL. It is a great toy for water retrieval and regular fetch. If your dog is trained to bring it back; it will not have the opportunity to chew on it and it will last for years. It is for supervised, interactive play only. Let it dry out and put it away when the fun is done.

Kong Classic is ideal for most labs, we haven't had any dogs chew through it, but some of our grown pups have. I recommend starting with this one, and if it is chewed through, than get the black one. We have had both and they seem to prefer the softer rubber of the red.

Chew Bones
We do not recommend anything made with rawhide, be it bleached, natural, stick, or knotted, as it can become a blockage in the intestines if swallowed. I'm not sure why stores are even allowed to sell this stuff. If you have severe food allergies in your home, be sure to check ingredients of chew toys as well as treats and dog food, as many contain peanut, seafood, or other known allergens as infused-flavours or ingredients.
Mighty Paw Yak Cheese Chews
Mighty Paw Yak Cheese Dog Chews | 4 Large Sticks. All-Natural Chews for Dogs. Long Lasting Yak Milk Dog Chews for Aggressive Chewers, for Teething Puppies & Bored Dogs. Remaining nub or fragmented pieces can be hydrated, microwaved and turned into a puff ball treat. We recommend medium for pups and large or X-large for adults.
-100% Natural, 3 Simple Ingredients: The Mighty Paw Cheese Sticks are sourced in the Himalayas and made with only 3 ingredients: yak & cow milk, salt and lime juice. That makes them fully digestible, lactose-free (It’s the curing process that removes the lactose from the milk), grain-free, gluten-free, chemical-free, preservative-free, mess-free, smell-free, and - most importantly - guilt-free! And just in case you’re wondering: It’s the curing process that removes the lactose from the milk.
-Limited-Ingredient: Our yak milk cheese sticks are a great alternative to bleached rawhide chews. They’re also a wonderful option for dogs with sensitive stomachs and chicken, beef, pork & grain allergies.
-Rich in Protein & Calcium: The Mighty Paw Cheese Sticks are naturally rich in protein and calcium, which is great for healthy muscle growth as well as bone health.
-Long-Lasting: The chews’ hard consistency means they’re a long-lasting snack.
-Promotes Oral Health: Our hard cheese chews soften with exposure to your dog’s saliva. Nevertheless, they encourage chewing which reduces tartar and plaque buildup on your dog’s teeth and gums. As a consequence, bad doggie breath will be a thing of the past!

Snuggle Toys
Unfortunately, most snuggle toys are not adult lab-friendly. They may have a favoured toy that they carry around for months and then suddenly, it smells extra good and they shred it. We get our stuffies at the Thrift store when they are $1 each, that way it doesn't matter if they are chewed. The ones below are longer lasting, ideal for puppies.
