The Labrador Retriever is a likeable and social dog who loves
everyone! They are playful companions, enjoying running, swimming
and love the outdoors.
The Labrador Retriever was originally bred by fisherman in
Newfoundland, Canada during the 1700's. They used them on their
boats to swim out and retrieve the nets full of fish. The name
"Labrador" was not coined until the British began to import the
dogs in the 1800's.

About the Cache: To add a slight degee of difficulty,
this multi cache has two somewhat devious WPTs with coordinates
leading to a regular 30 caliber ammo can. GPSr reception is
challenged at the final WP.
In the cache: "Black Dog" and "Yellow Dog" travel bugs
are being "Let Out" to catch up with "Brown Dog" for a "Three Dog
Night - Lab Gang" reunion somewhere in the world. The term comes
from a story of Australian aborigines who, on cold nights in the
outback, sleep with their dogs for warmth.
The coldest evenings are known as "Three Dog Nights". Hopefully
the reunion will be somewhere warm, although "Brown Dog" was a
native Alaskan pup.
