Gayle C.

Breeder of Dilute Retrievers

Meet the breeder

I'm Gayle C., the breeder behind Crowley’s Ridge Silver Labs located in Advance, MO. Our dogs are bred with health and conformation in consideration. We strive for the English stocky dogs with a great laid back temperament. Being transparent is our motto because we understand how dogs are part of your family. We are happy to tell you more about what life with a Dilute Labrador Retriever is like and how they will not only enhance your daily life, but exceed your expectations!

Q. & A. with Gayle

  • Why did you start breeding?

    My love of Labradors inspired the start of CrowIey’s Ridge Silver Labs (CRSL). I have owned a Lab since college days in the 1970’s and appreciate their intelligence and capability. Upon retirement I decided to pursue my love for these magnificent animals and live my dream to work and play with them each day. I learn from them constantly and hope to continue working toward an improved program.
  • What makes your program special?

    It is a small family business and my grandchildren are highly engaged in the work. We offer dilute Labs and socialize them for new homes. Our program is growing as we learn better methods of care for our mothers and general health. We are learners and doers! We also use kenneling techniques and obedience to enhance their adaptation and behavior in new homes.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home and a kennel on my property.
