NO VISITS WITHOUT APPOINTMENT PLEASE.
We are an AKC Breeder of Merit and Bred with Heart breeder. We have produced many Master Hunters and other Hunt Test titles in both AKC and HRC, Derby points, QAA, FC AFC, agility, dock diving, shed hunting, therapy dogs and hunting companions. While we have several accomplished males of our own, we also breed to other studs that we know and that have proven themselves. We don't just breed to "paper" either, there is more to a dog than titles and pedigree. Having spent a couple decades in this sport, we continually refine to breed to what we want to live with ourselves, what we like to look at in a Lab and of course, the health clearances. After all, we keep what we breed and we don't want dogs that have problems. No one can prevent every single thing from going wrong, but we do our best to grow healthy, socialized puppies. I highly recommend new puppy owners get pet health insurance. There are lots of companies now to shop and compare.
We are inspected by AKC routinely and as Wisconsin has a pretty significant set of breeder regulations, we also get state-inspected. We have never been "dinged" for anything on an inspection.
We only own and breed the 3 colors of Labs recognized by the parent club, the Labrador Retriever Club. We have never and will never breed or own "dilutes", the ones called silver or charcoal. The dilute gene is not part of the Labrador gene pool and we test to make sure it is not in our Labs. We have black, chocolate and yellow, and within the yellow standard, the shades range from very light cream to dark fox red.
Shipping via airline is no longer available. You may fly in to get your puppy and fly back with pup in cabin or drive to us. There are ground transport companies but you must be very careful in choosing a reputable company. I will no longer be scheduling this for puppy homes, it is simply too time consuming and too many cancellations and delays. We would like to meet you in person or see you again when you pick up your puppy.

We do not remove dewclaws.
We do not have a kennel building. All of our dogs live in our home and our puppies are whelped and raised in home as well. It makes for a lot more work, but the puppies get a lot of attention and exposure to normal household noises and activity, as well as things like waterfowl hunting videos, storm noise videos, live gunfire outdoors, water in season, various textures and scents. People often ask for "tour of the facility" but this is our home, so we schedule accordingly. Our priority is the health and safety of our dogs and ourselves.
