Meet the breeder

I'm Gina I., the breeder behind Wings of Freedom Retrievers and Malinois located in Boise, ID. We offer well-rounded, healthy, high-drive Labrador Retriever and Belgian Malinois puppies who will excel in any adventure with their new family! Our dogs are intelligent, loving, and athletic, and they produce puppies who will thrive in an active lifestyle. We're passionate about these dogs and are careful to breed and raise our pups with only the best policies.

Q. & A. with Gina

  • Why did you start breeding?

    We had family that bred Golden Retrievers and after helping them and finding my girl Shadow I knew I wanted to breed to hopefully start a hunting line that was also able to do service dog work.

  • What makes your program special?

    I believe in fully genetic testing both parents and ensuring their temperaments are solid. Puppies are raised in our home as part of our family until they find their forever home. I believe temperament and health are the most important factors when breeding.

  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our Belgian Malinois puppies include fawn and mahogany. Labrador Retriever 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.

    Once I found this puppy Gina was quick to respond to any questions and to provide me with all the information I needed. The puppy is a wonderful addition to our family and is settling in pretty good. Gina provided us with a care package to go home which contained the food the puppy was currently eating, a blanket from Mom and litter mates, some toys and lots of information to make bringing the little guy home easier.
