I'm Laura D., the breeder behind Candyview Labradors located in Minden, NV. My journey began as a little girl growing up with my family, raising Labrador Retrievers for family companions, hunting, and field trials. My first childhood best friend was a female yellow Lab named Kelly, who created an inseparable bond and sparked an unwavering passion for the breed. Over the years, I've dedicated myself to breeding, raising, training, and running hunt tests. As my program evolved, I expanded my interests into the conformation ring, where I have continued to breed multiple Champions while remaining steadfast in my commitment to health, temperament, trainability, and the natural drive to retrieve.
