Self-explanatory. Which is your favourite standard Labrador colour? (Not including mismarks, like brindle, black/chocolate and tan, mosiac, "silver" etc.) For me, it's black and chocolate. I just find that black Labs tend to be much leaner-looking than most yellows (though that's a crap argument, I've seen my fair share of fat black Labs, LOL!). And they're shiny. ^^ My own Lab, who is black, almost looks blue when in bright sunlight, because her coat's so shiny. Plus chocolate is just an awesome colour for any breed.  Your thoughts?

i LOVE chocolate labs, then second black labs, then lastly yellow labs. brown just reminds me of a rich chocolatey candy bar!  and with your black lab's fur turning blue in the sun, by solid black shepherd caesar's fur does that too!

I think the black coat itself really suits the breed personally. Then their chocolate coat and lastly their yellow coat. You have no idea how many times I've accidentally mistaken a yellow labrador for being a golden retriever (I know they're two different dogs, but sometimes I mix them up... it scares me that I'm dumb enough to do that o.o). oh wow, goldens have long-coats, that one way to tell 'em apart  . i agree that the yellow ones just aren't as different as the other colors. the shade of yellow they come in i dislike most would have too be that creamy color. http://www.infopet.ca/media/lost2dog-Holly.jpgalthough golden-y labs look a little better http://pro.corbis.com/images/42-1642157 ... 6AA2B50%7Dboth black and brown definately better http://www.barneybrothers.com/hueyandyogi.jpg

And I like the cream most on Golden retrievers. ^^

I love Golden Retrievers but I don't like yellow on a labrador. I voted black but it's a tough choice between black and chocolate.
I think the black ones look very smart with a red collar. :]

Honestly, it's a tie between Black and Yellow Labs. I own a Black Lab but I also adore the Yellow Lab color. Some Yellow Labs have a very light color to where it looks like they have a white coat!  I'd LOVE to own one of those! My mother's friend has a light-yellow coated Lab that looks like a white coated Lab (there's no such thing). The Lab is Male and his name is Nick. He is in training to help the blind. His owner says that people stop by asking "Where did you find a White Lab?"
