Q. & A. with Michelle
Why did you start breeding?
I had Labradors as pets for years and I decided that I love the breed enough to start raising them. That was 20 years ago and I still enjoy having babies in the home all the time!What makes your program special?
All of the puppies are raised inside my living room with constant love and attention from my family and I. We also go above and beyond with all of the health testing and certifications on the parents.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.
