This term also very commonly refers to a Labrador retriever. Steel1943 (talk) 13:13, 3 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

sure it does. But it much more often refers to a laboratory. Now, I know Google localizes results, but 10 pages of results there and not a single one for the dog. This doesn't seem like the type of topic with regional differences (as opposed to, for example, a city name) Oiyarbepsy (talk) 20:36, 3 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose: no obvious primary topic - place, river, etc, vs informal abbreviation for "laboratory" or "labrador". Status quo looks OK. PamD 14:22, 4 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
