Available Dogs & Older Puppies
In any responsible breeding program, there are numerous reasons why a particular dog is not to be an on-going part of the breeding program. Young or middle-aged dogs are occasionally available if I feel it is in the best interest of the particular dog to be placed in a carefully-screened pet home. Many people realize the advantages of adopting a well-socialized, house-trained dog rather than an 8-week-old puppy, and it can be a perfect situation benefiting both the particular dog and the adoptive family. No more competing for attention, but exclusive attention from a loving family! My heart may break when they leave, but I'm eventually comforted by the fact that he or she will be the center of life for some wonderful family. And everyone who knows Labs knows that, no matter how old, they have an unbelievable desire and ability to bond with anyone who shows them love and affection ... and feeds them!
I require that the prospective family come and visit and allow plenty of time for the family and the dog in question to get to know each other in various situations. We all must agree that it is a "match made in heaven". The reason(s) for placing the dog will be fully and honestly disclosed and a written guarantee will be issued. A week or two should be devoted to the adjustment period but, if for any reason, it appears not to be working out, I will immediately take the dog back and refund any money paid. Prospective adoptive families should be prepared to give a comprehensive dissertation regarding their desire for adopting an adult dog, their expectations, their family environment, lifestyle, facilities, etc.

Available April 2023 - Hazel & Gert - 3 years old
Chocolate Females - These sisters will be retiring in 2023 (DOB 04/23//2019). Will allow to be retired to separate homes - although preference for a home for both together
Both of these girls are lovely in the house, crate trained and listen extremely well. We owned 4 sisters and I can not say enough good things about them... they love each other and often play a little rough .. but hey they are sisters.. lol Their pastimes include looking for Penelope (the farm cat) around the farm, chasing each other, eating pears and they love watermelon! They had limited time around children as during covid they had less exposure, however their sisters adore children! These girls are on the more laid back side, they would love a hike but they aren't going to embark on your journey on the Appalachian trail lol - we would love to place them together - their adoption fee is $2000 each. Have health clearances and will be ready for their own couch and embark on new exciting adventures!
Both these girls, meander around the farm... no interest in running off and are 100% sweethearts... they will seriously steal your heart... they are big... 80's to 90's in weight... and have the most wonderful personalities... <3
