The breeder, Gateway Labs, has done genetic testing and research, which is published on their website, to trace recessive genes for the long hair. Four of the 6 puppies in the litter have the long hair. They do not look like black golden retrievers, but more like miniature (80 pound!) Newfoundlands, with round heads and some jowl and drool. Very cute and we love her but admittedly a fault in terms of breed standard. I have a hard time explaining this when people ask what kind of dog she is--it really is a throwback gene to maybe when Newfs were part of the original breed.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28609992.post-87488810453631845222010-08-30T19:06:37.100-04:002010-08-30T19:06:37.100-04:00We have a 1 year old Yellow with long hair.

We also have her brother, he is a completely common short haired Yellow. I didn't believe she was purebread until I read up on the subject. I though she was a Golden mix at first.

We bred our stud back to one of his 4 yo daughters and there were 2 long haired pups in the litter. We have had our stud since he was a 8 week old pup, and had raised 3 generations of the bitches decendants. All with standard short hair. Our now 9 month old female sports a coat somewhere between a normal lab and a golden. Anybody with an answer I would really appreciate hearing from.

The father is a British lab and the mother is an American lab. The litter contained 2 long-haired labs and the rest were short-haired. We were thinking the father had golden retriever in him, but the breeder told us that he was all yellow lab. <br /><br />He too has long hair behind his ears, on his back, and on his legs.<br />So....can anyone shed more light on this topic?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28609992.post-3671073550943170952009-05-04T11:04:00.000-04:002009-05-04T11:04:00.000-04:00We have a blacl lab that has long hair and are als...We have a blacl lab that has long hair and are also asked if she is a pedigree.

Everyone asks us if he is a Black "golden retriever", but we know both parents and grandparents of this pup. Any thoughts? Is it possible this hair is just puppy fur that hasn't come off (the vet's oppinion) or could he be a long haired lab?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
