I'm Janet P., the breeder behind Caerleon Ranch located in Greenwood, CA. We provide a high-quality Labrador stud service. Caerleon has been showing dogs of sound mind and body in both AKC conformation and hunt tests since 1987. Our dogs are bench champions, junior, senior, and master hunters, competitors in field trials, hunting companions, obedience champions, and most importantly, good family members.
