Jeff D.

Breeder of Labrador Retrievers

Meet the breeder

I'm Jeff D., the breeder behind Valley Creek Dog Boarding and Training located in Sparta, WI. We love this breed and the experience of having litters! Our mission is to raise pups that are set to become the best companions. The loyalty and loving disposition of this breed is simply the best! We put a great deal of effort into raising our litters to ensure our puppy families will have the best experience raising their new family members.

Q. & A. with Jeff

  • What makes your program special?

    Ensuring ethical breeding is our biggest priority. For us, this looks like: pampering our dams before, during, and after pregnancy; following all regulations; raising healthy, happy puppies that will thrive in loving homes; and giving dams at least one year between each litter. We only have 1-2 litters per year to ensure we can provide the absolute best care to our dogs.

  • 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.
