Lazy M Labradors
Meet the breeder
I'm Tracy H., the breeder behind Lazy M Labradors located in Mindoro, WI. Since 1970, we have had one goal: to raise smart, trainable, healthy family dogs that hunt. With each generation, we have selected pedigrees that would produce the kind of dog we wanted for our own family and that would excel as a hunting companion. What started as a hobby, ended up being a life of dogs! Our dogs live with us; they are our family members.
Q. & A. with Tracy
Why did you start breeding?
I purchased my first registered Labrador when I was 13, prior to that my family had raised a few litters of puppies. All of my current dogs are five and six generations from my first breeding 35 years ago. My family continued to raise Labs, and professionally train and compete in hunting tests and obedience until 5 years ago. I, however, have continued to raise litters, train and compete.What makes your program special?
For six generations, we have maintained the same goals in our breeding program. We produce healthy, highly trainable, hunting dogs with outstanding family dog temperaments.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
