Meet the breeder
I'm Mike S., the breeder behind Chehalem Valley Labradors located in Newberg, OR. I offer quality Dilute Retriever puppies for families who share the same love and passion that I do for these lovely companions. I am a small breeder allowing me to give each of my puppies, dogs, and breedings the proper care and attention they each deserve. I am dedicated to providing happy, healthy, and well-socialized pups for others to welcome into their family. I love my pups and know you will love them, too!
Q. & A. with Mike
Why did you start breeding?
The fulfillment of seeing new puppies born, watching them grow, and helping shape them and train them in preparation for their new forever homes is the most rewarding experience ever. My dogs have brought so much happiness to me. I want to do my part to give my puppies a good life as well as spread the joy they provide with others. It's an amazing feeling knowing that I made a positive contribution to these dogs and the families who love them!What makes your program special?
All dogs deserve nothing less than to be cherished, spoiled, and pampered, so I strive to place all my puppies in homes where they will be loved as family members. I strive to produce great dogs with impeccable temperament. I can't wait to help you welcome one of my pups into your home! It would be a pleasure to connect with you!Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
