Where do labrador retrievers get their name?

Labrador Retrievers get their name from the Labrador Peninsula in Canada, where the breed originated.

Here's a breakdown:

* Labrador: The peninsula in eastern Canada is where the breed was first developed.

* Retriever: This refers to the breed's natural ability to retrieve waterfowl, a skill they were originally bred for by fishermen.

So, "Labrador Retriever" simply means "a retriever dog that came from the Labrador Peninsula."
