Meet the breeder
I'm Tatum E., the breeder behind Ritchie Road Labradors located in Brantwood, WI. We do our best to make sure our dogs are healthy, bred responsibly, and are raised with care (and lots of love). As a result of our efforts, we’re confident our puppies will become a beloved member of your family and your best hunting companion. We hope they fill your life with joy!
Q. & A. with Tatum
Why did you start breeding?
When we were ready for our next duck dog, we did lots of research on pedigrees, bloodlines, breeds and their performance, temperament, and most importantly, their health. We are so thankful to have a truly amazing dog, and we want to continue that bloodline to see all the amazing things these pups can do!What makes your program special?
We don't breed for just one thing (I.e. looks or abilities). Our dogs are versatile. From laid back at home, to absolute beasts in the field, and gentle as therapy companions.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies are yellow. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
