We are so excited about our new Labrador Receiver, Haley. She is such a beautiful, happy, well tempered puppy. We can tell that Whiskey Rivers, is an ethical, good breeder just by how healthy and well adjusted Haley is already in our family since she arrived a week and a half ago. We feel we made the right choice.
