Meet the breeder
I'm Heath S., the breeder behind CapeWest R&T located in Weatherford, TX. We are dog trainers who became breeders to share our love of British Labs with others. Our goal is to help families have obedient, well-mannered pets. We believe this starts with breeding healthy dogs that naturally display these qualities. We specialize in gun dogs for the average hunter.
Q. & A. with Heath
Why did you start breeding?
I wanted to produce high-quality dogs that would be both exceptional in the field and well-mannered at home. After training dogs for the general public, I noticed a need for pups with strong bloodlines & genetic qualities that set them up for success from day one. I’ve seen firsthand how the right breeding makes a difference in a dog’s temperament, health, and trainability.What makes your program special?
Our breeding program stands out by selecting only high-quality European studs, ensuring strong genetics. Our puppies grow up in-house, exposed to everyday sounds for smoother transitions into family life. We introduce whistle training once eating solid food & use Alpha pellet litter boxes to encourage them to potty on grass, helping build the foundation for well-behaved, adaptable puppies.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include black and yellow. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Our experience with Heath was amazing! He knows each of his puppies and the love, care and environment Heath and his wife provide you can tell their high expectations. They genuinely want their puppies to have the best homes with the best people. I would definitely tell anyone if you are looking for high quality Lab puppies you cannot go wrong with getting a dog from CapeWest.
