About the aging Labrador Retriever. Since the average life span of a Labrador is 10-12 years, you must consider a 7-8 year old Labrador aged and in the later one third of his life.
Labradors are medium-large, with males typically weighing 65â80 lb (29â36 kg) and females 55â70 lb (25â32 kg). The majority of the characteristics of this breed, with the exception of colour, are the result of breeding to produce a working retriever.
