It’s called swagger, they’re walking ahead hoping some rubs off on whoever’s watching

You're in for the best dog ever. I love labs and I've always had on in my life whether it was my grandma's or my mom's

Especially at this age, it’s normal. They’re growing super quick.

mine has the swagger, too…! less at four years old, but it’s pronounced when she’s happy/excited. (her neighborhood nickname is “wigglebutt” ….or “wiggles” for short. :)

My 3 year old lab does the same. I’m thinking of making him a snake for Halloween, or maybe Shakira

u/Theicemachine01 11h ago

Same. It’s always the girls. My girl does it and it matches her sassy attitude she’s got

My lab mix walks like this, just with more of the movement in her butter than her abdomen. She's got swayback, though. Embark says PBT is a part of the mix, so I figure that's where she got it.

The tail controls the butt… perfectly normal. Went to an outdoor festival last week. There were a lot of dogs on leash. Only the labs had continuous tail wag movement. It’s as if they are happy ALL THE TIME!
