Consider a Gentle Leader for awhile - at first they hate them, because they don't like anything on their faces, but it's mostly drama. It's a fantastic tool for teaching them not to pull when walking - with any dog over about 40 lbs, that is just a very bad and potentially dangerous habit! Labs almost always need this kind of feedback to really get it, they're just dumb'n'happy and don't realize they're causing issues for anyone else.
