Meet the breeder
I'm Lilly B., the breeder behind Windbush Retrievers located in Coulterville, IL. We have a small family run breeding program. We pair our moms and dad's with sweetness and intelligence as our main goals. We want to bring super snugglebugs into the world so they provide their families with love and companionship for many years to come. Parents are DNA health tested and socialized with grandkids, cats and other family dogs to insure healthy happy puppies. Puppies will go home with age appropriate vaccines and worming as well as a goody bag and registration papers were appropriate.
Q. & A. with Lilly
Why did you start breeding?
My husband began competing with and breeding sporting dogs over 59 years ago. He is now a Americian Field trialing judge and competes in Hunt test.What makes your program special?
We are a very small program concentrating on happy healthy snugglebug puppies. With only happy and healthy adults used for breeding. Puppies learn form their mommas so you want to start with a stable, sweet and calm mommas and daddies.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Lily was awesome to work with. We were able to FACETIME to see the puppies since we live so far. She took the time to show each one and tell us about them. Pick up was great. She gave us some stuff to care for him. A bunny that smelled like his momma was the best. I had a few questions the next day-I haven't had a puppy in 8 years. She answered promptly and even checked on him the next day. We named him Dozer. Highly recommend her. She cares for the pups a great deal.

+4Windbush was amazing to work with and they were so patient with all of the questions I had! They kept us updated with pictures prior to pick up day and most of all Ozzy (formally Lefty) has been a amazing dog. My son and him are attached at the hip! Ozzy is the perfect addition to our family and look forward to watching him grow!

From the beginning, Windbush really stood out to us as breeders. From their impeccable breeding history, to Lilly’s quick communication and frequent pup dates, it was a great experience from start to finish getting our puppy! You can tell Lilly really cares about her dogs and ensuring they end up with a happy, loving family.
