Meet the breeder

I'm Rachel B., the breeder behind Castlegate Labs & Doodles located in Seymour, MO. I offer well-tempered, healthy Doodle and Labrador puppies for loving homes. My program is built with love from the ground up. I care deeply about responsible breeding, and I do everything I can to ensure my dogs and puppies are getting the best care in every aspect of their lives with me. They are happy, intelligent, and cute as can be!

Q. & A. with Rachel

  • Why did you start breeding?

    We originally got an AKC chocolate Lab from a friend and wanted to raise puppies for others to enjoy! Every litter is always a little different, but it is so fulfilling to see the different personalities and such a joy and challenge to hand-raise each puppy. We love watching them blossom!
  • What makes your program special?

    Our puppies are very socialized with children. We take pride in the fact the puppies don't have to be afraid of children when going to new homes. Our puppies are played with daily. We love spoiling and pampering our dogs, and hope that our puppies' new homes will love and cherish them just as much as we do!
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies are chocolate. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
