I'm Adam M., the breeder behind Snowpeak English Labradors located in Sweet Home, OR. At Snowpeak English Labradors, we raise classic, blocky English Labs with calm, loving temperaments. Our dogs are family, raised in our home in Oregon with plenty of space to explore. We focus on health, structure, and early socialization for well-rounded companions.
Q. & A. with Adam
Why did you start breeding?
My love for Labradors began in 2018 when I started working at Knotty Creek Labradors. Over the years, I developed a deep passion for the breed, learning the ins and outs of ethical breeding and puppy development. That experience inspired me to start Snowpeak in 2025, focused on raising exceptional English Labs.
What makes your program special?
At Snowpeak, our Labs are raised in our home as part of the family. From day one, they’re loved, socialized, and included in daily life—not kept in kennels. They grow up exploring the outdoors, going on adventures, and learning to be confident, well-rounded companions ready for any lifestyle.
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.

Hip Dysplasia
Hip testing reduces the chance of passing down hip dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause hip pain and the eventual loss of the function of the hip joint.
Elbow Dysplasia Finals (OFA, BVA, SV, FCI)
Elbow testing reduces the chance of passing down elbow dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause arthritis in the elbow joint and front leg lameness.
DNA Disease Panel, PRA, Rod-Cone Degeneration (PRA-prcd), Centronuclear Myopathy (CNM), Exercise Induced Collapse (EIC), D Locus (Dilute) DNA test
Genetic testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide variety of hereditary diseases of differing prevalence and severity such as Progressive Retinal Atrophy (an eye disease) and Von Willebrand's Disease (a blood disease).
Health testing is one key piece of responsible breeding and is performed on breeding dogs to prevent the presence of heritable conditions in their puppies.
