Why Choose Our Chocolate Labrador Retriever Puppies for Sale?
Chocolate Labradors are playful, loyal, and intelligent — and they tend to have more energy than most other Lab colors. That’s not a drawback if you’re the right household. Active families that hike, run, or have a big yard tend to love them. They need exercise and engagement, and when they get it, they’re genuinely wonderful dogs.
At Labrador Today, we raise Chocolate Lab puppies that are well-adjusted, healthy, and ready for family life — not just beautiful.

AKC Chocolate Lab Puppies – What’s Included
Every Chocolate Labrador Retriever puppy for sale at Labrador Today comes fully prepared for their new home:
- Official AKC registration papers
- Licensed vet health certificate — checked at 6 and 8 weeks
- Age-appropriate vaccinations
- Complete deworming records
- Written health guarantee
- Optional microchipping
- Puppy starter pack
- Lifetime breeder support
Family-Raised and Socialized
Our Chocolate Labrador Retriever puppies are raised at home — not in a kennel. From birth they’re handled daily, exposed to household sounds and routines, and socialized with adults and children. By the time they leave us, a normal busy home is nothing new to them.
Each puppy gets:
- Daily handling and interaction with adults and children
- Exposure to household sounds and environments
- Early confidence building and basic training foundation
- Premium nutrition and full veterinary care throughout
That early socialization is what separates a confident, settled puppy from one that takes weeks to adjust to a new home.
Chocolate Lab vs Other Lab Colors – What’s the Difference?
If you’re deciding between colors, here’s an honest breakdown based on what we see across our litters.
Chocolate Lab vs Yellow Lab: Yellow Labs tend to be calmer and easier to settle. Chocolates have more drive and energy — they’re not difficult, but they need more stimulation. If you have young children and want a more laid-back dog, yellow is the safer pick. If you’re active and want a dog that matches your energy, chocolate is a great fit.
Chocolate Lab vs Black Lab: Black Labs are the most consistent and even-tempered across lines. Chocolate Labs can vary more in energy level depending on bloodline. Both are loyal and trainable — the difference is mainly in baseline energy and how much exercise they need daily.
Chocolate Lab vs English Cream: English Cream Labs from European lines are noticeably calmer and stockier. If you want a Lab with a more relaxed temperament, English Cream Lab puppies are worth considering. Chocolates are the better choice for active households that want a higher-energy companion.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are your Chocolate Lab puppies AKC registered?
Yes, fully. Every Chocolate Labrador Retriever puppy at Labrador Today comes with official AKC registration papers, a licensed vet health certificate, vaccination records, and a written health guarantee.
Do you ship Chocolate Lab puppies?
Yes — safe, monitored delivery to all 50 states with real-time updates throughout. We regularly deliver to Texas, California, Florida, New York, and everywhere in between. In-person pickup is also available. Send us your location for delivery options.
Are Chocolate Labradors good for families?
Yes, with one caveat — they’re the most energetic of the Lab colors and need regular exercise and stimulation. For active families with kids, they’re excellent. If you want a calmer dog, yellow or English Cream Labs may be a better fit.
How do I reserve a Chocolate Labrador Retriever puppy?
Contact us through the contact page, request photos and health records, and secure your spot with a deposit. Most litters go before they’re publicly listed — earlier is better.
Are Chocolate Labs good for first-time owners?
They can be, as long as you’re prepared for their energy level. Labs in general are forgiving of early training mistakes, and Chocolates are no different — they just need more exercise than some first-time owners expect. We provide lifetime breeder support so you’re not on your own once your puppy is home.
What is the difference between a Chocolate Lab and a brown Lab?
They’re the same dog. “Brown Lab” and “Chocolate Lab” are used interchangeably — the AKC officially recognizes the color as chocolate. If you’re searching for brown lab puppies for sale, you’re looking for the same breed.
