Q. & A. with Robert and Brittany

  • Why did you start breeding?

    We got introduced to breeding through a local community of highly accredited gun dog owners and trainers. From there we learned the ins and outs of proper breeding etiquette for medically sound dogs with a high capability of performance. As we continue we will constantly be looking to advance and improve our program to offer the best Labrador Retrievers we can.

  • What makes your program special?

    We focus our breeding program on genetically clearing each puppy from all diseases, dilution, and structural issues. We select temperaments for performance, drive, sociability, and intelligence traits. Each breeding is meticulously researched for pedigree achievement, DNA panels, OFA certifications, and performance titles; ensuring your new family member arrives with the utmost quality.

  • 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.

    Robert & Brittany were amazing to work with. They were super responsive with all questions and clearly take pride in their pups! We received updates on all stages of our little Josie’s new life and conditioned the puppies to new environments, potty training start up and engaging activities. We got so many videos and updates our anxious thoughts were settled in advance. We love our new bundle of joy!

    From the very first conversation to the day we brought Oliver home, our experience was absolutely incredible. As first-time Labrador owners, we had countless questions, and they were unbelievably patient, knowledgeable, and generous with their time. They never made us feel like we were asking too much and always took the time to provide thoughtful, honest answers. It was obvious from the beginning how much love, care, and dedication they put into raising their puppies. Oliver came home healthy, confident, well-socialized, and with the sweetest temperament we could have hoped for. You can truly tell he had an amazing start to life. He has adjusted so well to his new home and has already become such a cherished member of our family. One thing that really stood out was how well they knew each puppy’s personality. They helped us choose the puppy whose temperament best matched our family and lifestyle, and they couldn’t have been more right. Oliver is everything we were hoping for.

    Robert and Brittany were so amazing! They made the whole process really smooth and easy. They took the time to answer all our questions and are incredibly knowledgable about the breed and their dogs. They not only sent regular updates but have checked in with us weekly since we got Finn to make sure he is settling in well. Going that extra mile shows how much they really care and love every single puppy from the litter. We love Finn so much and he is loving his home and playing with his big brother! He is the perfect new addition to our family!

    Robert and Brittany are everything one should want when looking for a puppy. They are very responsive, very knowledgeable and just two of the most awesome people I have met when searching for a dog, we hit the jackpot with our puppy we got from them! The hardest part was picking a puppy from all of the photos! I am beyond grateful my family went with brown collar! I loved everything about getting a puppy from Robert and Brittany, Robert has even called me after getting the puppy when I had questions, extremely grateful for this whole experience! Thank you Robert and Brittany for starting bishops story and leaving us to write the rest! ♥️

    Our experience with Robert and Brittany has been terrific. They respond to questions promptly and completely, are polite, friendly and professional. It is clear that they care about their dogs and customers, and made the whole process a pleasant one, with their openness, flexibility and willingness to make all medical, DNA and diagnostic test results for the sire and dam readily available. They welcomed us to their home to visit their facility and meet the puppies, and our 8 hour drive to do so was well worth it. It put us at ease with regard to how well they care for their dogs. They also provided regular update videos and photos showing the puppies’ growth and progress. On top of that, they provide helpful suggestions on socialization and house-training. They went above and beyond to make sure we were satisfied. We highly recommend this breeder. My wife and I are thankful we chose to get our puppy from them, and our entire family has fallen in love with our fox red female Labrador puppy, Riley. She’s beautiful!!! Thanks Robert and Brittany!
