You're of British descent
Friendly and coming from fishers
Of Newfoundland
You're good for sporting and hunts
And a great companion
The first of your kind, yellow lab
In 1899 was born
You're powerful with a muscular build
Your siblings could be any colour
Your mouth's feel is soft
And thus you retrieve game
You're a family dog, Teddy
If ever there was one
Many countries know only you
As a pet
