I'm Nancy R., the breeder behind Stonehouse Labradors located in Selah, WA. We strive to breed healthy, loving, and good-looking Labradors that will be cherished family members for years to come. We are a small hobby kennel, only having a litter every 1-2 years. Our dogs are all health tested and only bred if they pass clearances. We compete in conformation, obedience, and rally. Some of our dogs are certified therapy pets, and a number of them enjoy a day in the field or blind, doing what a Lab was bred for. The true Labrador is a dog that can be in the conformation ring, obedience ring, duck blind, doing therapy visits, and asleep in front of the fireplace all in one day! That is our goal at Stonehouse Labradors.
Q. & A. with Nancy
Why did you start breeding?
It’s been a lifelong dream to start a breeding program. After a long period of raising children, we have finally had the time and resources to start breeding. It has been an absolute joy of a journey, and we are so happy to be able to share these wonderful dogs with other loving families and individuals.
What makes your program special?
Our dogs are first and foremost family members. Our numbers will always be low, so each dog has attention and space. Each litter is given 100% of our attention, from before they are born until they leave for their new home. All litters are raised in our home. We have high expectations for our puppies and strive to place each one in an enriching and loving home!
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include black and yellow. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
