I'm Jessica B., the breeder behind Atlas Labradors LLC located in Bethlehem, CT. We have a commitment to fully health testing any dog we breed according to OFA Standards, while carefully choosing our future generations according to temperament, conformation, and health.
Q. & A. with Jessica
Why did you start breeding?
I began breeding when I developed a friendship with a fellow breeder who agreed to mentor me. I began showing Labradors in conformation where a love for the breed began.
What makes your program special?
We believe in fully health testing all breeding dogs. This includes hips, elbows, eyes, heart, and a full genetic panel. We follow the Labrador standard and do not breed dilute colors as they have debilitating health problems. My puppies are born and raised in my home where they are exposed to as much socialization as possible. We follow Puppy Culture protocols when raising our dogs.
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 a kennel on my property.
