This is a repeat breeding - Our C.R. Gracie Mae is from their first litter. Gracie received her
Started Hunting Retriever Title on her 8-month-old birthday.
Both Coco and Curtis are with us for their hunt training and will be running for their SHR and JH titles this fall.
but that is only the beginning!
They do health testing and guaranteeing their puppies health.
They spend many hours working with the pups and their new family's.

I believe strongly in versatility of the breed and as such, our Labradors compete in multiple venues including conformation, obedience, rally and hunt tests. In addition, health and soundness are a priority so all breeding dogs have a family history of certification through the OFA to have clear Hips, Elbows and Eyes. In addition we do PRA testing Progressive Retinal Atrophy, more commonly known as PRA, is a general term for a group of diseases causing degeneration of the retina, leading to a loss of vision., EIC Exercise-Induced Collapse is a genetic disorder causing affected dogs to suffer from a loss of muscle control following periods of extreme exercise. CMN Centronuclear myopathy, previously known as HMLR, or Hereditary Myopathy, is an autosomal recessive mutation that causes insufficient muscle function in the Labrador Retriever breed. This is due to the centralization of the nuclei in muscle fibers, caused by an missense insertion in the PTPLA gene.This disorder is caused by a mutation in the Dyamin 1 gene.
Because PRA, EIC and CMN are a recessive disorder, a dog must have two copies of the mutation in order for the disease to manifest, inherited as a recessive trait. This means a disease gene must be inherited from each parent in order to cause disease in an offspring, so at least one parent will always be tested from our litter to be clear.
Testing that should be done on both parents so ask for the results:
OFA Hips & Elbows, CERF., EIC, PRA, CMN and Cardiac
