Meet the breeder

I'm Jeannine S., the breeder behind Archer Lodge Labradors located in Archer Lodge, NC. We have been breeding dogs for over six years and fell in love with the breed after bringing home her first Labrador in 2019. That’s when we knew Labradors were something special. Each dog has a unique personality, and all interact daily with our children and their friends helping to raise confident, well-socialized puppies.

Q. & A. with Jeannine

  • Why did you start breeding?

    We initially got into breeding because we loved our two Labradors (Gracie/Duke) so much we wanted to breed them. From there we learned more and more about the breed standard and how to do things right from our wonderful mentors!

  • What makes your program special?

    What makes us stand apart is our determination to keep our line healthy and happy. Not only is health testing (Genetic Testing and OFA's.) important but so is socialization and temperament. We work hands on with all of our dogs and puppies to bring you the best of the best. We strive to bring healthy and breed standard Labrador retrievers to our customers.

  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include black, chocolate, and yellow. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home and guardian homes.

Getting a puppy from Jeannine

Jeannine partners with buyers to find the best match as the puppies develop and their personalities take shape. Typically, matches are finalized when the puppies reach about 6 weeks old.

“We take great care in placing each puppy with the right family. Puppies are matched once they're old enough for us to evaluate their temperaments and personalities — typically around 6-8 weeks.”

    Mabel has been very high energy from the start. We had to fight our way through round worms and giardia right from the start, but she beat that. Just shy of eight months so is in a word, awesome! Smart, wants to learn, trains easily and loves to snuggle. I will send photos if I can figure out how.

    She provided excellent service; the process was easy and secure. We always stayed updated on any questions about the puppy. She’s a very kind person, with great experience and knowledge of these dogs. Having a puppy from her has been one of the best experiences of my life.

    I loved working with Jeannine, Timber is our first family puppy and we wanted to make sure we found a reputable breeder! Archer Lodge Labradors do an extensive amount of testing to ensure the health of their puppies, and Timber is already receptive to training and is already going potty outside! He has a wonderful temperament and is just the cutest. We are so thankful to have found Archer Lodge Labradors!
