    Shari was amazing throughout every step of the process. She was patient and knowledgeable and answered all of our questions along the way. I loved that she shared weekly photos of the pups, and the care package she sent him home with was a nice touch. My pup is so smart and sweet and well behaved. He is the perfect addition to our family. Thank you Shari for everything! Honestly, the only thing that wasn’t amazing about this entire experience was that Good Dog charged an additional $1000 in fees off the top without telling me in advance that I should expect to pay that much. Had I known, I would have tried to reach out to Albrecht Farms directly.

    I am so lucky to have found Sheri as a breeder! Telemachus is such an amazing pup! He’s soon to be 3 months and has been sleeping through the night for two weeks. He is confident, healthy, smart, full of life, and an all around amazing dog. Sheri is a wonderful breeder and I am impressed by the care she puts into her dogs. The whole process was smooth from start to finish. I cannot recommend Albrecht Farms enough!

    Working with Shari was an absolute pleasure. This was my first experience working with a breeder, and I had so many questions. Shari was incredibly informative, patient, and kind throughout the entire process. She and her family clearly pour so much love and care into their Labrador Retriever litters, and it shows. My healthy and rambunctious black lab puppy (Coda) arrived with some socialization and little potty training too for an 8 week old. plus she's confident, and ready to explore the world. One of my favorite parts of the experience was receiving regular video updates. Watching my puppy grow alongside their littermates was heartwarming and helped me feel connected every step of the way. Shari’s communication was outstanding. She never made me feel like a bother, even with all my questions, always responded promptly and thoughtfully. I couldn’t have asked for a better introduction to working with a breeder. Especially when I was initially reluctant to get an animal from a breaded, however, I highly recommend Albrecht Farms!

    Morgan is settling in well. Shari obviously did a wonderful job of socializing and preparing Morgan for a happy life. She came with the default command of "sit" which made our life so much easier. Morgan is our good, loving, and happy puppy. Everything we hoped for! I cannot thank Shari enough for raising our new family member for the first eight weeks of her life. I love that Shari understands the beauty and history of the labrador. She breeds a well rounded amazing puppy. We are so grateful to have met her! 🐾🩷

    Shari was wonderful to work with! From our initial meet and greet to the day we brought Shadow(Blue Boy)home, she sent us regular updates and answered any questions we had. The day he was officially ours she sent us home with a wonderful basket of goodies to get him started! He is growing into a healthy, happy boy who loves to torment and play his big brother, Max! Thank you so much, Shari!

    Our puppy Lea is doing fantastic and we loved working with Shari. At our first vet appointment the vet told us how impressed she was with Lea and her physical condition, but also with how thorough the breeder was in taking care of the liter before they went off to their new homes. We could not have asked for a better experience!
