AKC Labrador Retrievers
(English Lines)

AKC Labrador Retrievers came back into my life on a warm Easter Sunday in 1998. On this fateful day, I decided to give a lonely little yellow lab pup a two week trial. Eight years later, she's still with me! This is Oat's story and her extended family....

Oats is not only my buddy, she's my second hand when it comes to farm work. I couldn't do my farm or horsey chorses without her! She has passed all her displasia tests, is certified "Good" and has had her eyes "Cleared". This wonderful yellow female weighs in at a hefty 55 pds. and has a small solid build. Oats has wonderful retrieving skills, targets birds on the ground/air, loves the water, mouse hunts and herds my young weanling horses into the barn when needed. Bring out a gun, and she's ready for a job!

Oats produced her last litter - sired by Mistyfield March To The Beat - on: April 18, 2005.
There were 7 puppies: 4 boys and 3 girls.This quality, all yellow litter have all found new homes.
We wish them and their owners all the best!

Harley is all water dog! She will swim and retrieve all day if you'd let her! Her sire is an AKC Show Champion who also has a Certificate in Obedience with his owner. Harley is currently being "home schooled" in agility. She made her debute in April 2008. No placings but, considering my lack of consist training time she did far better than expected. She'll be ready for the next one!

Harley had her second litter of puppies on Dec. 7, 2007. They were sired by the fancy imported (B/Y) male: Will To Please Of Tintagel Winds. This was a very fancy litter with square heads and large shoulders. These pups were so nice, we retained a black female! Look for Harley's Daughter, Island Breeze (aka Brie) below. Harley has been learning agility in my spare time. We will be out with her in 2010. Watch for this little girl as she screams through the course! She adores agility.

Brie, is a smart, correct girl and a daughter of our Island Harley.
Brie is a sight to behold! She is a quick learner, with a layed back disposition but always ready to go when asked. She has a pretty head, nice length of neck, correct shoulders, short back and a tail that won't stop wagging! She has matured into a beautiful very stout dog and weighs in at 58 pds. She is what we were hoping to breed when first starting breeding. Brie loves to swim, fetch or 'steal' a toy and adores going for a truck or Prowler ride. She is the watch dog of the group and will alert us to anything that isn't right.

If Mother Nature allows, we are hoping she has her first litter of pups in mid January 2010.
These pups will be looking for new homes at weaning.

Uno, ready to go! Uno at rest - summer of 2005

Uno was the sole pup in her litter. She was a 'keeper' from the start! Uno is tiny, weighing in between 43-48 pds. Although her build is small, this dog is dynamite! Her profile is a joy to behold, correct legs, hips, eyes and a hunting instinct to die for. This busy dog had her first litter on Jan 19, 2005. These pups were sired by AKC & Obedience Champion, CH Mistyfield March To The Beat - YLW. After weaning and getting back into shape, Uno started taking agility classes in the fall of 2005 at a local dog training center. She did excellent and a new sport for us was set in motion!

Show update: Aug. 2006 - almost one year from Uno's first agility lesson, she garnered both her AKC Novice Agility Titles in 20' division and one High Point Labrador Retirever Award(Standard division) from the Greater Boston Labrador Retriever club! 2007 with limited showing - Uno earned her AKC Open JWW Title and is one "Q" away from her Open Standard! She also pulled off another High Point Labrador Retriever Award (Jumper With Weaves division) from the Greater Boston Labrador Retriever Club for the second year in a row! Way to go Uno!

Trialing for the 2008 agility season is very light due to gas prices and large travel distances. Uno is still in search of that elusive 'Q' for her Open Standard title and running well in Excellent JWW with one 'Q'.

2009 was another light year for agility trials due to Uno having a litter of pups on March 16th. All these pups found excellent homes from our waiting list and we, kept one to continue on with Uno's line. Check out her yellow daughter Island Dos. What a looker and, Dos is a 1/2 sister to our Island Harley!

Uno tried her paws at a few local CPE Agilty Trials. We both had a fun time, met a lot of new friends and earned a lot of "Q's". Uno even won a few titles!

We have plans to start trialing again in early 2010.

We didn't need another dog........... but, sometimes you just have to say, oh well! Dos is one sharp looking girl and a daughter of our agility Champion, Island Uno. Dos's sire has an AKC Championship in Conformation and is well known in the show ring. One of the key factors in keeping Dos was the age of her sire. We love our 'Drummer' girls and wanted one more!

Dos will be a tad bigger than our other yellow girls but is extremely agile. She is the best fetcher and toy 'thief' - which we believe she has learned from her 1/2 sister Harley. Dos loves to swim, go for hunting runs in the fields, adores a truck or Prowler ride and will find an apple that falls from the tree no matter where it lands. She LOVES her fruit!

We are planning on taking Dos to a few puppy classes and then introducing her to agility as she appears to want to follow in her dam's foot steps. We have great hopes for this quick girl. So, sit back and watch her grow!
