| So you are thinking about getting a Labrador Retriever? I always tell people that come by the kennel that I could spend hours telling them about all the reasons that Labs are my #1 breed of choice. However, what makes a Lab perfect for me, may not make it perfect for you. I live on a ranch with plenty of room for the dogs. My husband and I are avid hunters and we compete the dogs regularly at conformation events. We have the time and the space for large dogs. We also invested a lot of time getting to know this breed. I understand that the Lab needs a job and do my best to find one for them that does not involve chewing up my sprinklers, or digging a hole to China in my flower beds. We have a young child in our household and would never tolerate aggressive behavior in our animals, it is one of the reason that we started with Labs to begin with. I need to have absolute trust in my daughters companions. Now, I know that not everyone lives on a ranch and not everyone hunts, but these are smart animals bred to work in the field. I created this section of our website for two purposes, to help prospective puppy buyers decide if a Lab is right for them and to provide a resource to new puppy owners. I always get questions about what books to buy, what to get before the puppy goes home, etc. And while we are always just a phone call or email away... This is one other way to help you to get the information you need. Articles to get you started. "About Retrievers" What makes a Labrador Retriever a Labrador Retriever?
