Each of the dogs that are in our breeding program come from health tested stock and proven hunting/competing bloodlines. We selectively look at the parent dogs health clearances, temperament, drive, appearance, and that the conformation standards for the breed are met before acquiring a puppy intended to go into our breeding program. With puppies bred off of our personal dogs we look to bring together appearance, drive, physical structure, and trainability to produce top of the line retrievers.
