Meet the breeder

I'm Candice R., the breeder behind Gwyneira labs of Idaho located in Nampa, ID. Our dogs our breed only after passing health screens and exams. Along with OFA hips, elbows, eyes and heart to make sure we are breeding health dogs. They must be friendly, outgoing, and even-tempered personalities to be in our breeding program.

Q. & A. with Candice

  • Why did you start breeding?

    We have had labs for over 22 year and know the bred. We have helped rescue and fostered this bred. They are the best. I saw a big polar bear (yellow lab) named finney that was just stunning to me and as sweet as could be. We finally got a point where we could purchase a great line on both sides with these type of traits so we did. We have loved every minute of it.
  • What makes your program special?

    We are small and spend 24/7 with these puppies. There is always one of us with them and we get to know there personalities to help find the right family for what type of dog they are wanting. Whether that be service, hunting, champion show, or just the best companion.
  • 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 and guardian homes.

    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.

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