I'm Kathryn J., the breeder behind GreenGate Labradors/GreenGateLabradors.com located in Eugene, OR. I'm a home-based breeder, and I strive to produce outstanding puppies that are structurally sound, healthy, intuitive with wonderful temperaments. I breed for quality, health, conformation and competition, and most importantly companionship. My dogs excel as family companions and in conformation, rally, obedience, and as therapy dogs--they must be smart, biddable, beautiful and eager to please and honest. Happy and exuberant outside, but quiet companions in the house. Taking deposits for current litter. Blacks and yellows.

About Tes
Tes is truly my heart dog. She is sweet and loving, beautiful, and smart. Her mother is a certified therapy dog, and Tes surely follows in her footsteps. She loves meeting new people. She immediately flops on her back for tummy rubs and is especially gentle with toddlers and young children. I take her to events as a representative of her breed. Tesla is very biddable and has so far in addition to her champion title, has 13 points towards her grand champion and has a Canine Good Citizen, and Rally Novice title. Once she retires from showing, I will have her certified as a therapy dog. She's a perfect labrador. Tesla has had all of her health testing: Hips good; elbows normal; eyes cleared annually, heart clear/normal; and DNA clear by parentage.

Our experience with Kathryn was excellent in all facets. You can tell she had a real care and concern for dogs and gave us an absolute gem. Our little guy came to us well taken care of and clearly exposed to different things that set him up for success later in life. I would highly recommend getting a dog from Kathryn . They are gorgeous but even more the temperament is everything you would hope for. Thank you so much!!!!!!
