Magnolia Labradors
Meet the breeder
I'm Marni V., the breeder behind Magnolia Labradors located in Middleton, ID. We are from Idaho and breeds Labrador Retrievers (English). We started in California when we purchased our Maggi from Belgairn Labradors of Middletown, CA in 2017. We have remained in close contact with Jennifer and Ron Kelly of Belgairn Labradors to mentor us on our new adventure. She has been a huge help and is greatly appreciated. We focus on English Labrador Retrievers. Not the American. English have broader square heads/ faces, shorter and stockier build. We are a hobby breeder and strive for the health and strong breeding standards of the Labrador Retriever. Our fur babies are well loved and socialized. Our grandchildren (ages 15-5) are nearby and give lots of hugs and attention to the pups.
Q. & A. with Marni
Why did you start breeding?
My husband was in the pet industry, professionally, and we discussed which breed we mutually preferred. I've always wanted to share the love of dogs and especially healthy pups with others.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include black, chocolate, and yellow. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
