World Labrador Day

A day often celebrated by animal lovers to honor the popular dog breed (not officially recognized by the UN, but widely celebrated internationally).

A possible link to the date April 23 could be purely speculative, linked to a historical event in the breed's breeding history, or simply an arbitrary choice that competes with other celebrations of the day (such as World Book Day). However, without concrete evidence, the “history” of this day remains hypothetical and not officially documented. Without official confirmation, “World Labrador Day” on April 23 remains speculative.

World Labrador Day, which is celebrated on April 23, is a tribute to one of the most popular dog breeds in the world. Labradors are known for their friendliness, intelligence and versatility. They originated in Newfoundland, Canada, where they were used as working dogs for fishermen. They helped to haul in nets and retrieve fish from the water.

Labradors were brought to England in the 19th century, where they were specifically bred to improve their abilities as hunting dogs. Today, they are not only loyal family dogs, but are also used in many areas such as therapy, rescue and as guide dogs.

World Labrador Day is an opportunity to celebrate the special qualities of these dogs and draw attention to their importance in our lives. Perhaps you also have a special connection to this breed?
