About Us


We are located in Fresno California on our 15 acre ranch with
plenty of room to work the dogs.

We are also home to a variety of livestock including a small
herd of Boer goats.

We actively compete in AKC conformation, hunt tests and in
2007 we will start running field trials.

We have both field and show lines in all colors. We
occasionally have older dogs for sale.
We are members of the Central California Labrador Retriever
Club (Christine is serving as the current club President) and
the San Joaquin Labrador Retriever Club.

We offer puppies to good homes with the time and space to
accommodate them on limited registration. We OFA our
breeding stock and CERF annually.

We strive for sound, loving, companions with the drive to
perform. Our dogs are being used in the field for upland and
duck hunting, as well as drug detection dogs, and first and
foremost as loving companions.

We have produced tournament hunting champions,
International and American show champions and junior and
senior hunters. Our next goal is a master hunter or field
champion.

If you are thinking about getting a lab, feel free to contact us
for more information. We want to help you find your new best
friend. From our home to yours.

Oh, and yes we do own a single German Short Haired Pointer
"Mac", not to be out done by the labs, Mac finished from the
12-18 month puppy class, going BOB twice. We also have one
Chesapeake Bay Retriever "Blade", who at is first show
earned his International Puppy Championship and also a
Reserve Best In Show win! Blade is only one "Major" win away
from his AKC Championship. We hope to add another GSP and
Chessy in 2008.

Our daughter added her very own show dog, Misty a Chinese
Crested powderpuff. Misty quickly found a very special place
in our hearts with attitude that does not stop and an affection
for her owners which rivals the love our labs share with us.
Misty won Best Of Winners at her first show handled by
Brenna our 6 year old daughter. Brenna is very full of herself
now. After all she has handled two labs to their WC titles in the
field and has earned points on her puppy all at 6 years of age.
What will she do when she is 7?

The first thing after great genes is feeding a product to your
dog that promotes even growth, great coats, and the overall
good health of your pet, while giving them the energy to
perform. After trying many expensive and trendy products, we
were very surprised and happy to find Diamond Dog Food. I
was talking to another breeder/competitor on the East Coast
when they mentioned that they used Diamond Dog Food. I
looked them up and decided to give them a try. They offered a
quality product that fit within any budget. After switching to
Diamond, we found that our dogs had fewer reproductive
issues, maintained their energy in the field for longer, and we
really started seeing success in the show ring. It was the final
piece in the puzzle for us. It was great to find a dog food
company that believed everyone should be able to afford a
PREMIUM pet food without paying a premium price. We
strongly recommend giving them a try. Diamond has also
launched a new line in the all natural Taste Of The Wild brand.
Our favorite is the Bison & Venison version and the dogs love
it.

We are also very fortunate in our canine handlers.

Ellen Cottingham, in the show ring
and
Rob Hall, trainer and sometime handler in the field. Rob is
currently spending several days a week here in Fresno
training dogs. If you want to discuss training, call Scott and he
can set up a time to meet Rob.

When you are looking for a handler, honesty, dedication and
professionalism are priceless qualities. Both Rob and Ellen
have been trusted with our very special four legged children,
and that says a great deal about them.
