Meet the breeder

I'm Kimberly L., the breeder behind Summer Hill Labradors located in Powhatan, VA. We offer quality AKC puppies and young adults. All puppies are Vet checked, dewormed, and up to date with Vaccines. We focus on health, temperament, and conformation. All our puppies are raised in our home with our children. Our puppies are socialized early making our puppies well-rounded and happy puppies ready to adjust to their new homes and families.

Q. & A. with Kimberly

  • Why did you start breeding?

    As long as I can remember Labradors have always been a part of my life. I clearly remember me and my sisters rushing home from school as children to help my mom care for a litter of puppies. I truly enjoyed this experience so I decided to continue breeding with my family. Now it's my son and daughters who rush home from school to help with the puppies.
  • What makes your program special?

    Our dogs are DNA health screened and OFA to help ensure healthier Labs for generations to come. We have developed protocols for our breeding program through careful selection of sire and dams to ensure the future generation of dogs that preserves the distinct Labrador Retriever look as well as their legendary temperament.
  • 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.
