Meet the breeder

I'm Mya O., the breeder behind O’Brien Labrador Retrievers located in Modesto, CA. All of our dogs are loved as family members. We cherish our puppies from birth up until they leave our arms to snuggle into yours! We are dedicated to always providing our buyers and our puppies with a positive experience, which includes remaining committed to responsible practices when it comes to breeding, training, and rehoming our puppies.

Q. & A. with Mya

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I got into breeding because of my childhood dog, Baxter. He was a chocolate Labrador and truly my best friend growing up. He did handstands in the pool with me, walked my 4-H projects, and followed me everywhere. He lived such a full, happy life, and the bond we had is something I’ll always carry with me. As I got older, I went to my grandpa—who is a veterinarian—with the idea of wanting to give other people what I had growing up: a Baxter of their own. He believed in me and offered to be my mentor and go-to person, helping guide me through the process and making sure I was doing things the right way. That’s really where it all began, and it’s still the heart behind what I do today.
  • What makes your program special?

    What makes my breeding program special is the level of care, knowledge, and intention that goes into everything I do. With a background rooted in veterinary medicine through my grandpa, I’ve had hands-on experience from a young age and a strong understanding of canine health and development. I focus on raising English Labradors with excellent temperaments, sound structure, and strong health backgrounds. Each puppy is raised in my home, where they are introduced to early socialization, daily routines, and a loving environment from the very beginning. I also prioritize building relationships with my families. From the first inquiry to long after your puppy goes home, I’m here as a resource and support system. My goal isn’t just to send puppies home—it’s to match each family with a dog that will truly become part of their life, just like mine did growing up.
  • 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.
