Get another lab. Seriously, they are pack animals afterall. My three provide themselves with hours of fun and exercise each day. My lab was three before he started to mellow out. He's eight now and a great dog.

That would keep one person employed all day just to pick up.

I don't like dog! I'm never going to eat one again.
The New Year's dinner put me in hospital in HK one time when I was working in China!! Thought I was having a heart attack but it was only a gut reflux or some sort of indigestion.

I saw Marley & Me, and from what I could tell, it was the owners didn't have a freaking clue how to train a dog. Mine is pretty well behaved, just a busy dog. He only chews on his toys. When we went to Petsmart yesterday, he pretty much freaked in the store with all the toys and food smells just for him. He went down the stuffed toy isle and pulled a tiger off a hook and carried it around with him. Then I grabbed a bag of rawhides and we went to the register. I took his toy and handed it to the cashier and he (very gentlemanly) put his paws on the counter, looked her in the face, and waited for her to ring it up and hand it to him. They were laughing at him. Then I took him swimming and wore him the heck out. He snored all the way home and walked in the house and snored some more. I should have done that sooner in the day. LOL

Sounds about like the average day of my dog as well, except with shredding of random papers he finds on the table and window blinds. I can't buy him petsmart toys because he'll tear them to pieces in 2 days. Luckily, my dog loves to sleep, but he keeps himself busy with his stuffed turtle, or chasing cats, birds, and squirrels out of the yard.

Well, first you get all the assistants to mix random chemicals together, just to see what happens.... Oh, you ment the DOG. Sorry.

I can't comment on the movie as i haven't seen it but what i recall of the book, they tried obedience classes. What first time dog owner does really have a clue? He really did have a heart of gold but he was a terror.
As they say in the book.. it pays to see both parents when buying a dog. Personality does come in part from the parents.

Hey Bunny,
As a dog breeder for 30 years. (retrievers & St. Bernards)
The best thing for your dog, and your piece of mind.
Is getting another dog.
These dogs live to CHEW, RUN, & PLAY!
They will slow down a bit, after 24 - 36 months.
And will become the best friend you ever had.
Don't know if you are into running, or horse back riding.
If you are, take him running.
Us "smart" old farts use atv's.
Want to see something funny?
Get a garden hose and attach a rotating sprinkler head to it.
Watch them have a time of their life.
As for the chewing, there is a product called "No chew".
That can be sprayed on furniture, table leg/chairs.
It works great, and does no harm to the wood.
Chew toys, are a must.
But only give one rawhide bone at a time.
The # 1 rule with this breed is RULES!
They should have inside rules, & outside rules!
If YOU don't set the rules for a young dog.
And keep them, they will never listen.

Milo has been a very good dog. He doesn't chew on the furniture only his toys. The day I wrote this he was a bundle of energy. I normally have him follow me on the four wheeler and we go on a couple walks a day and fetching whenever he wants. He probably gets more attention that most people's kids do. I already have two rat terriers that he plays with. I am pretty determined that he is an indoor dog. With Kansas weather, I refuse to have another outdoor animal. I usually turn on the garden hose and he'll grab it and take off running across the yard until he runs out of hose. I have a baby pool in the garage and when he wants to go swimming he'll pull it out of the garage to give me a hint to fill it up.

Glad to hear, he has canine buddies!
Sounds like Milo, has a great life!
And has his owner, already trained. LOL
Dogs are hilarious, and they all have their own personalities.
This morning it has been snowing out.
And two of the Saints, wanted outside, to play.
So they brought my boots over to me.
And then dropped them on my bare toes. 
As a dog owner, I could not survive w/o my dogs.

Your dog sounds like a great Lab BunnyWabbit. I love Labs. Lots of energy and LOADS of personality.
I will throw a third vote in on the Kong toys. Stuff those little treats in there and even Border Collie's are out of your hair for an hour. I like putting peanut butter in them every once in a while...keeps them from figuring out "the secret."
I'd love to see picts of your fun-loving Lab!
