We are Different

​We are NOT a kennel and pride ourselves in that. You will not see rows of cages, no permanent outdoor living areas or separation of our dogs from each other except during times of heat cycles. From fur on our couch and floors to stepping over Labrador speed bumps in our kitchen, we embrace them one and all!

Our family works around the clock when the pups are young and we continue personal, engaged care for each puppy in our litter during their time with us. We make sure all are well-cared for and provide them with exercise, a bit of training, lots of loving and good, plain common sense while they are in our care.

We give the mamas a break and try to let them decide where they want to be at any given time. This gives them some space if they so choose.

​Our puppies have their own puppy house and fenced-in yard complete with covered lanai: we can even raise the lanai roof for extra fresh air on those rainy Waimea days.  We take turns sleeping in the puppy house and are always present while they are very small.  Our family makes it as easy as we can on the mama with plenty of our puppy lovin' to free-up her time and energy. It socializes the babies and gets them used to human handling from a little one to a grown-up.  Our puppies are well-socialized, eager to please and we are frankly wrapped around their little paws!  

 We Care

In order to  maintain credibility in a sea of shady breeders, we only advertise through word of mouth, the AKC.org website and this website. If you decide to get a pup elsewhere, please be sure the breeder vets their adults through DNA, hips, shoulders and eyes. Make sure they are vetted through parental DNA for EIC and PRA. Nothing is more heartbreaking than to fall in love with a little one only to have them suffer debilitating health issues due to irresponsible breeding.

How We Operate:

​Owners will be screened for a lifestyle conducive to Labrador life:

  • Home ownership (hopefully) as rentals can be tricky.

  •  Fenced yard or similar (Labs need exercise).

  • Dog should not be left alone for extended periods of time.

  • At least one person in the household that will be the puppy's advocate and trainer for a great life!​

Once our puppies are born, I start taking videos and photos and distribute them to the prospective parents.​ At week six, parents will choose  ​their new love. 

​We do not allow for gender choosing (first female, first male, etc) as prospective parents have fallen in love with a puppy that was not their original gender preference. When it is your turn to pick your new love, you will be offered ​ALL of the available pups at the time of choosing. This also allows for better personality matching.

First on the list chooses first and so forth. If you have a certain gender in mind and that gender is not available at the time of your choosing and you don't fall in love with a puppy, you may remain on the waitlist for the next litter.

Once you have chosen your puppy I will send you individual photos and videos every couple of days. Our previous puppy parents

appreciate this and it sets us apart from others!​

About Us

Our puppies are $3000 each plus tax and the cost of airfare and airline crate for his/her flight if applicable. ​​As owners, we reserve the right of first choice(s) of either gender for every litter. We also reserve the right to refuse adoption to a prospect for any reason. Our puppies and their quality of life are important to us; parents that don't provide the lifestyle (or temperament) that we seek in an owner and a furever home will be graciously declined.  

​

All puppies are given limited AKC registration. This means your puppy can be registered, but their offspring cannot.​​  We do this to be as sure as we can that our lines are protected by preventing pregnancies that are not part of our planned lines.       

​

We will not release the individual AKC registration for any puppy until proof of neuter/spay is provided.​ Again, this is to protect our lines as we do not want pregnancies with lines that are not healthy, proven and tested. We are committed to protecting the breed as a whole for their future.

​

Our dogs are from Champion and Grand Champion lineage.  They have both Show (English) and Field (American) in their heritage for the best of both in the Labrador world. They are cleared through OFA for elbows and shoulders. We only breed dogs that have been given a "good" or better OFA rating. Our dogs' eyes are CERF-cleared. They are vetted through parental DNA for EIC and PRA.​  The puppies will have their health clearance, initial vaccinations, deworming and microchip completed before they are adopted.

Please click on our other pages for more information and photos! We welcome the good, the bad and the ugly parts (mostly good!) of having multiple dogs living in our home with a smile, a shrug and a hug. We wouldn't have it any other way. We hope it shows in the confident, even-tempered puppies we raise who may have a little mischief in him/her for a bit of personality!
