We had not considered looking for a rescue labrador, however we are now. :)

Thank you everyone for the answers, I really appreciate it. We don't want to breed Beau or his potential sister, and I am taking him to obedience school but haven't thought about showing him. We have really enjoyed every aspect of the Labrador breed - mischief and all. They are beautiful dogs and I am glad I did my research before adding him to our little family, dogz online site and this forum were an invaluable tool in deciding. He really is a lovely little man with the best personality. My biggest concern was that perhaps he would not be accepting of a new puppy or that he would be jealous, neither of which anyone has mentioned. I don't feel like he would, it would be a new play mate for him. I just want the best for him. :)

Hi I have a 1 year old beautiful male Labrador, Beau. He has a great nature, is intelligent, playful, loves kids and people, extremely cheeky, the biggest sook and I think the world of him. My partner and I were thinking about another Labrador (female) addition to our family and were wondering if anyone could tell us the best time to do so. Is a year too young? Would we have issues with opposite genders? We don't plan on mating/breeding either of them at this stage. Beau also lives with his meow (cat) and Bella (shitzu/maltese dog). He has been socialised with other dogs as well. I am really just wanting information or advice that anyone could offer. Thanks in advance Jennifer
