Q. & A. with Susan
Why did you start breeding?
I have had Labs in my life for the past 35 years and in my opinion they are the best family dog there is! Labs are amazing hunting dogs, search and rescue, service dogs, guide dogs, performance dogs, and most importantly family dogs! This is why I got into breeding Labs cause I LOVE them!
What makes your program special?
All our dogs are raised in our house with our family (they are part of our family). We do all the proper health testing to make sure we are breeding healthy, smart, gentle, and fun-loving dogs!
