Q. & A. with Lauren
Why did you start breeding?
Through having a service animal, I saw firsthand how life-changing a well-trained dog can be in everyday life. I gained a deep appreciation for the programs and individuals who dedicate themselves to training dogs that are able to support their handlers with confidence, stability, and purpose. I developed a strong passion for preserving what makes him so special.What makes your program special?
Our breeding program is centered around producing AKC Labrador Retrievers with exceptional temperaments, sound health, and strong working potential for therapy, service, and companion homes. We believe that a Labrador’s greatest qualities are found in their intelligence, emotional stability, trainability, and ability to form meaningful bonds with people.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

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.
