We absolutely adore all Labradors, no matter their lineage or mix. While officially recognized shades include black, chocolate, and yellow, Labradors come in a wide array of beautiful colors like white, fox red, and even silver. Some may argue over what constitutes a true Labrador color, but even the most ardent supporters of the traditional shades have to acknowledge the stunning diversity within the “yellow” category. Whether they’re as light as snowy white or as deep as a fox red, all yellow Labradors are truly captivating. Let’s take a closer look at some stunning examples of these vibrant hues.
