Labradors Breeders

Love’s Labradors, a labrador breeder,  produces top quality health tested and DNA cleared including Copper Toxicosis, labrador retriever puppies in colors: Black, Fox Red and Chocolate. In years past I competed at AKC and HRC Hunt Tests with some of my labrador retrievers to test their soundness, birdiness and desire for the bird. I prefer my Labradors to go to homes for best care and most love. If you are not going to hunt with one of my Labs? That’s ok. Most love them as family companions. But if you are a hunter? My Labs become the stars at most hunt clubs and have a keen nose that will find the bird that the other dogs are unable to find. For those diving wounded ducks? My Labs will be swimming under water to get that bird! My Labs are as well, therapy Labs for PTSD patients, Detection K9 Units for child trafficking and narcotics, hunt for antler sheds, competition Labs in many AKC and UKC events of all kinds, hunt clubs lead guide dogs and sleep and love on your kids everyday and night!

They can and I guarantee that they have the drive for the bird and seen by age 6 months. They are known to be with families, as companions, hunters, out fishing with you and enjoying the livingroom space with you and kids. They have the athleticism to do just about anything. My Labradors are my kids and are raised in my home in temperature control environments.

  • intelligent with a keen sense of smell
  • structurally sound and balanced
  • 100% birdy in the field by 6 months of age
  • good looking with classic Lab appearance
  • easy to train puppies for sale near me

I test for genetic abnormalities and diseases including EIC (Exercise Induced Collapse), CNM (Canine Myopathy), DM (Degenerative Myopathy), PRA-PRCD (Progessive Retinal Atrophy), and RDOSD (Retinal Dysplasia and Ocular Skeletal Dwarfism), CT (Copper Toxicosis), HU, SD2, IVDD, Eye Refractory (near sightedness). Thru being educated by a few Vet Teaching Universities I have switched from OFA in checking on hips and elbows to a more detailed and progressive way to tell if there are early stages of Osteoarthritis, hence elbow and hip dysplasia by performing the testing thru IDEXX and/or Penn Hip.

I look for caring and loving homes for the puppies. I expect potential homes to have a fenced yard, be past Labrador Retriever owners or have raised a puppy of another breed, and be able to provide the care that these angels deserve. I care for these kids and I want the love and care to continue in their new home.

Our Customers Say

At 4-months-old Zephyr is already excelling at being a Colorado dog! Whether we’re hiking in the mountains, swimming of any kind, anywhere, or just walking around downtown Denver, he is everything we hoped for and more! He’s smart as a whip, athletic, eager to learn, and always ready for a new adventure! His head is developing beautifully and his body is already becoming lean and muscular. Everywhere we go people stop and admire him and comment on his good looks

– Meredith & Mike

Now, the little guy couldn’t be more handsome, affectionate and incredibly smart. He is now 12 weeks old, arrived 5 days ago and we do not kid you that he is already house trained! He goes to our back deck door and sits patiently for us to open the door and then he goes down the 12 steps, does his business and runs right back up. He learned to go up and down stairs, get house and crate trained in less then a week!

– Marcella Pascualy and Richard Veith

I just wanted to give you an update on my sweet puppy Sadie and wish you a happy new year. Since getting Sadie from you in June she has brought so much joy and happiness to my life; I could not be happier with her. I was able to spend ample time training and getting her ready for duck season which was such a rewarding experience. We’ve had an amazing season together in which Sadie has retrieved more than 150 birds and I’m sure even more to come as I have a few big trips left. I just want to thank you again for allowing me to have one of your wonderful puppies, I am so grateful. Once again thank you so much for her.

– Caleb Benson

Now that he is a year old, he has been on a couple hunts. I’m very impressed with his nose. If he gets a scent he locks in on it. Attached is a picture of his first hunt, pheasant, and this morning we went on first duck hunt. His first duck was banded, good sign.

Hi Jana. Here is a pic of Cooper at 10 months. Great dog . I’ll try to get better pics next time out. Very impressed. Thanks!
– Eckle
Remington has started her gun dog training. She is an amazing dog in every aspect. Her hunting drive and nose are what you would see and expect in dogs much older. I’m hoping after her gun dog training to see how far they can take her.

Update October 2026

Due to limited areas allowing fire insurance and this is a must for lenders for home owners insurance, I went seeking a home w acreage along the Central Oregon Coast. I found it! A non burning area due to the trees not drying up from the extreme heat like within the interior of Pac NW. Dogs will reside and be trained in a cool temp area in the Summer and enjoy the temperate temps in the Winter. November I am in Los Banos for just a few weeks to show some started gun dogs or show young Labs to be trained as started gun dogs.  It will be nice to once again have a home and nice acreage and water to work and play with the Labs. For those outside of the Central Coast of Oregon, rest assure it is well worth the extra 90 minutes from the 5 fwy to know that the dog you are buying or dropping off to be trained is in temperate climate with bed areas temperature controlled. I will accomodate travel trailers, RVs and indoor facilities in my home for meals and to stay a few days to make certain you are comfortable with your new hunting partner. Or to pick up your new puppy to take home.  Please come and be my guest. 

Currently I have 4 black males and females trained for started gun dog ready to go plus from the Violet litter I have 6 five month olds males and females just starting to get ready for the bird work. Behind that I have 4 black males that would be ready for bird work and your home Summer 2027. Plenty to view, review and make certain you both are the best match. So, Happy Hunting this season and give me a ring in 2027 and let's schedule a visit after hunting season and line up your new kid. 

Next planned litter will be Iris and JJ producing extremely good looking birdy Fox Reds and blacks. 

This year 2026 I will have trained #10-15 Started Gun Dogs, next year gearing towards #20 including the pups being potty and house trained with setting up the shop with a home like setting.  I find my Started Gun Dog program leading my business in the last few years more so than puppy sales.  I enjoy training young dogs and hoping they go to the best in care and most loving homes.

My Training Program has me allowing room and time to train for obedience and gun dog 3-4 Labrador Retriever Puppies per month from my breedings or from an approved kennel that I will train from their stock. I took a break from training Labradors for a few years and have found many of the trainers have gone out of business due to the past poor economy and there is a need for good quality trainers for the hunter, duck hunting experience and also for just understanding where a Labrador comes from to train for the companion dog.
My Gun Dog Training program is ONLY 60-75 days in length. I do not train a young Labrador to the college level within the 60-75 days but instead keep it basic so the mechanics, desires and commands are clean and they understand to their maturity level. I keep it positive and ask for the hunters to keep it positive with the commands for their first season. I do train much like Bill Hillman but also have my own style in reading the dog and applying the lessons and direction based on how much they can and desire to take in that day.  98% of the Trained Hunters by me are pleased with the outcome, and return for their next hunter.
Please let me know what your Labrador Training needs are and/or seeking a Labrador Retriever Puppy as I have some scheduled breedings going on now and again during Summer and one last one for the year w Iris in Fall. Please refer to my Litter page.

Health Guarantee

 

As a seasoned Labrador Breeder and Trainer, I am committed to providing the adopters with healthy Labrador Retriever puppies. The Health Guarantee ensures that all of the Labrador Puppies young and old are free from genetic or hereditary issues, and I pre-screen the Dams and Sires to rule out any potential health problems. I also provide educational resources to help the adopters make informed decisions about genetic health and ensure that their new Labrador Retriever puppy receives the best possible care. This commitment to health and transparency gives the adopter the peace of mind, knowing that their new family member is off to the best possible start. My guarantee is for LIFE. Not many Labrador Breeders do that! If you have done wrong to the puppy like wrong food or too vigorous of exercise at too young of age, then my guarantee goes out the window and I chose the wrong adopter to one of my kids but I do guarantee to the hips, elbows and eyes and especially to the diseases that I have DNA tests that i can perform on the parents. Side bar note: for the hunters, I guarantee your Labrador Retriever puppy is birdy. Again, how many Labrador Breeders do that!! If not, give your other family member the pup and let's get you another Labrador puppy as a Hunter for you---no charge. I will need to assess the pup first at ages 4-6 months. I stand by this guarantee and my Labrador breeding program.
