Our new puppy "Tango" looks like a black lab but his mom is golden retriever and dad is black lab, what is the proper breed name for our pup?

Do we call him a black lab? black lab cross? golden lab?

I'd go with "lab mix". I used that for my lab x chow, lab x ?, and sometimes use it for my new short haired golden retriever x ? It's just a lot easier to say lab mix than golden retriever mix! You could also go with retriever mix, since both labs and goldens are retrievers.

A golden retriever is a type of Lab. So that makes the puppy a lab or lab mix.

A Lab-reiver, I have one too except the Lab was a yellow and that made... with the Golden a striking golden shorhaired 90lb Lab-reiver. She loves thunder and lightening storms and wants to lay in them, so I call her Thunder Bear. She also smiles like she has all the secrets of the universe.

I think I would call him a Lab/Retriever cross.

there is no specific name for it, but you can make something up, like golden lab, lots of people do that now

There is no proper breed name for a mixed breed dog.

That would be a "Mixed Breed." I have three of them.
