Expert Answer

The Labrador Retriever is quite intelligent and is a very smart dog, which is why Labradors are often trained as police dogs and guide dogs. Beyond high intelligence, they have a good temperament, gentle and friendly toward people and very loyal to their owner.

Moreover, the Labrador is a famous ‘nanny dog,’ very friendly toward children in the family, making it a good choice for households with kids. If the owner trains the Labrador correctly while it is young, it can absolutely become a great helper in family life.
