Q. & A. with Pam
Why did you start breeding?
We love the breed of Labradors and when we went looking for our next dog we had a hard time finding a small-sized quality breeder in our area. We went to look at several dogs and left the facilities empty-handed. We offer a different experience for a discerning customer.
What makes your program special?
The facility is beautiful and the puppies are given the best possible start. We spend a lot of time and money on enrichment and experiences during their short stay with us. The adult dogs are well cared for and loved.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
