Our involvement with Labrador Retrievers began over 17 years ago and has created a journey that has led us to many intriguing paths.

Having been raised with German Shepherds, I lost my last dog to old age, and because of familiarity, began a search for another German Shepherd. However, after finding that the breed had changed so dramatically with crouching, severely angulated rears, longer narrow heads, and having witnessed aggressive temperaments at ringside, I began a search for a people-loving dog and family companion, who enjoyed all seasons, to fulfill my needs. Little did I know that this search would lead me to the Labrador Retriever who has more to offer mankind than I ever realized.

Good temperament and soundness of an animal are most important to us. These are the basics that give you the foundation for every involvement a dog will have in his(or her) life. Our primary objective is to improve the breed through selective breeding and by producing healthy Labradors that excel in temperament, soundness and trainability. All of our stock is certified clear of hip/elbow dysplasia, have annual eye clearances, and we have a written replacement purchase agreement.

Over the years, we have been involved in conformation showing, obedience and field work and feel that a well-balanced dog is titled at both ends. These are activities that we enjoy, and I never stop being amazed at the loving, giving and willingness- to- please attitude that the Labrador Retriever exhibits on a daily basis, in just wanting to be your best friend and companion - a true family dog.

We have placed dogs with Service Organizations where they have been paired with persons with special needs assisting with sight, assisting with activities of daily living, and the first dog in British Columbia who is the companion of a child with uncontrolled seizures (the dog often having premonitions in advance of a seizure and alerting the child to lie down and pressing an alarm in the house).

We visit seniors' residences and nursing homes where our dogs continually wag their tails to an outstretched hand and pat, bringing smiles to all.
