Meet the breeder

I'm Sophia P., the breeder behind Country Grace located in San Jacinto, CA. We believe the most important job and purpose our Lab puppies have is to share LIFE; Loving, Blessing, and Emotionally Supporting their HUMAN FAMILIES - often literally saving peoples' lives through their Presence and Providing Companionship and Services!

Q. & A. with Sophia

  • Why did you start breeding?

    We showed in 4-H (FFA) and learned through experience and through years of training and caring for our livestock and dogs. None of the animals came close to our beloved puppies; truly man's (and kid's) best friend and companion! This love for Labradors continues as we share our Labs with hundreds of children and families that visit our Christian Guest Ranch and Kid's Camp in So California.
  • What makes your program special?

    We strive to improve our own breeding program with every litter! Health and soundness is extremely important in our breeding program, therefore all of our adult Labradors have had their OFA testing. Our objective is to produce a beautiful and intelligent Labrador Retriever that excels in all aspects of life and conforms to the highest standards of the American Kennel Club (AKC).
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies are yellow. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

Breeder-Reported Testing

Excellent level

Country Grace reports to performing the health tests below on their breeding dogs. Ask your breeder about the tests performed on the parents of your litter. Learn more about health testing for Labrador Retrievers.

  • Hip Dysplasia

    Hip testing reduces the chance of passing down hip dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause hip pain and the eventual loss of the function of the hip joint.

  • Elbow Dysplasia Finals (OFA, BVA, SV, FCI)

    Elbow testing reduces the chance of passing down elbow dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause arthritis in the elbow joint and front leg lameness.

  • Cardiac Evaluation (registered with OFA)

    Heart testing reduces the chance of passing down congenital heart disease, which can cause a range of symptoms ranging from trouble exercising to heart failure.

  • Vet Wellness Exam

    A breeder may perform additional tests on their dogs that do not fall into these general categories. These tests may be more uncommon or very specific to a particular breed.

  • DNA Disease Panel, PRA, Rod-Cone Degeneration (PRA-prcd), Exercise Induced Collapse (EIC), Centronuclear Myopathy (CNM), D Locus (Dilute) DNA test

    Genetic testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide variety of hereditary diseases of differing prevalence and severity such as Progressive Retinal Atrophy (an eye disease) and Von Willebrand's Disease (a blood disease).
