The Picnic Was Over Before It Started. A Lab and a Horse Were Napping.

A blue plaid blanket is spread out on the ground, and the picnic has turned into a nap. A black Labrador Retriever lies with her head on her paws and her warm brown eyes looking forward, while a chestnut horse rests beside her with his chin to the blanket and his eyes shut. A watering can, rubber boots, and a stack of firewood sit near the house. The Lab is Maggie and the horse is Copper. The afternoon breeze lifts the corner of the blanket, and no one stirs.

Labrador Retrievers are friendly, outgoing dogs who love company, and they are among the most popular family pets. They are known for their eagerness to please and their love of food, so a picnic is a big event for them. They also tend to gain weight easily, so keep an eye on portions and exercise.

If you take your dog on a picnic, pack fresh water and a bowl, and keep human snacks out of reach. Chocolate, grapes, raisins, onions, and sweeteners are dangerous for dogs. Horses can enjoy a carrot or apple slice in small amounts, but ask your vet about treats and portion sizes.

Maggie and Copper have made a quiet picnic of their own. Nothing needs to be eaten for it to be a great day. The blanket is wide enough for both, and the afternoon is long enough for a good, deep rest.
