Why do Labradors eat everything they find, even non-food items?

Question

Why do Labradors eat everything?

Christie Long, DVM · Accepted Answer

All dogs are scavengers, and are thus constantly on the lookout for something edible falling into their area, but Labradors have a reputation for taking this to the next level. Many of them will eat almost anything, so it's a good idea for owners of Labrador Retrievers to be extremely vigilant about leaving food on the counter, and make sure that trash cans are well-secured.
