1 A highly excitable pup that jumps at you is cute but an 18 lb pup can grow up to 80 lbs rather quickly. A full grown 80 lb Labrador Retriever habitually jumping at you is not.  Labradors should learn to cope and connect with other people and dogs. This breed is very social; they like to feel that they are not alone.

Sixty-three percent of lightning-associated deaths occur within 1 hour of injury (1), 92% occur during May-September, and 73% occur during the afternoon and early evening. Of persons who died from lightning strikes, 52% were engaged in outdoor recreational activities, and 25% were engaged in work activities (2).eath attributed to lightning was defined as any recorded death for which the underlying cause of death, or at least one cause of death, was coded E907 (lightning, excluding injury from fall of a tree or object caused by lightning) according to the International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision.
