Yay! Denver!

So, if you're following us on Facebook you already know we've had quite a few dogs available this fall/winter. Between the return of Jasper, taking in eight rescues, and one unexpected litter (and then a realllyyy unexpected one from one of the rescues.) We've had quite the mess here. Especially since the move and such haven't allowed us to do much building for dog kennels. Anyways! One of the last four puppies, Denver, from those little surprises found her place today. Always nice to see. She fell in love instantly. She knew before they did. She just rolled into their laps and was more than ready to leave minutes after they had arrived! It was super.

Almost every phone call or email we get has some sort of compliment on our website. I know, I know. Super right? Mother worked long and hard with our designer to get that right and we love to hear the postive feedback! Thank you everyone and especially Steve for his excellent work!

I think this blogging stuff is going to be fun! Though I do believe I should explain that most of these posts are made by Toria, as in me. And not mom. -Gasp!- I know. Why is the breeder not blogging?! Well people, it is because she is a business woman, and unfortunately for all of you, that means your stuck with the wild ramblings of her eldest daughter. But hey. You get the news, that's what counts right?

How many of you are actually following anyways!? I hope someone is...

Oh and jee, the silly printer is out of black ink. In the middle of nowhere, which is where we are, it's hard to get out and get more. Sad really. When you're trying to get some forms for the dogs' annual CERF...

Silly technology.

Until next time!

Creams and Yellows expected this Fall!

Odin and Phantom are expected to breed in July for a litter due in September. We expect gorgeous English puppies in various shades of light yellow. You can see Odin and Phantom on the website. We are taking a small amount of deposits and a waiting list for this litter!

Litter of Whites and Creams expected this Summer!

Valor and Tempest have been bred for a litter due May 4, 2011. The puppies will be readythe end of June/beginning of July. This is a repeat breeding. Puppies out of these two are beautiful, intelligent and excellent companions for both families and hunters alike. We are full on female
deposit spots but still have room for males. We are also taking a waiting list for this litter. You can see Valor & Tempest on our website, but I've posted some of their previous puppies below:


Kuula -- Female







Hudson -- Male



Shaela -- Female



Valor JR.  -- Male



New Champion!

CH. Freespirit's Justus Kuma!

Our lovely man finished his conformation championship in ten days of shows.
He's taken Winners Dog, Best of Winners, Best of Breed, Best of Opposite and
he's gotten a good look at group too! We're very proud of Justus.

Justus started showing in February, doing two shows that month, and finished
the last weekend in March. He finished before his first year birthday!

Justus is expected to breed with Tempest in the summer/fall of 2012; Pending
his clearances are good & clear.

Welcome!

Alright people, yet another place where you can follow our little adventures with our Lab companions. We've been breeding for a few years now, we're still learning almost everyday. There are signifigant advantages to having such a large family of Lab-loving people, but we still like to keep the operation fairly small. This allows optimal time for our dogs, and the puppies we produce. We have three adult males. Listed from oldest to youngest: Odin, Valor & Justus. They are all yellow in various shades. Valor and Justus are a much lighter shade often referred to as cream or white, and Odin is a light yellow. And we have two adult females. Phantom and Tempest. They are sisters; though from different litters; They two are the lighter shade of yellow. As well as two young cream/white females and one black female; they were all born in the fall of 2010 and are hopefully going to be part of our breeding program in 2012. So, in total there are eight labradors in our breeding program, and another two pet labs with in the family. They all live in the house; Rotating through our bedrooms, sleeping on dog pillows or the bed.  Our labs are all treated as house pets. We feel that this is vital since most of them will be retired to a new loving family when the time comes. Any dog we breed is generally retired between 3 & 4 years of age. Some stay within the family to live out their lives. We hope to bring you closer to us and our fur-family with this blog; We will update as often as possible! Thank-you!
