Lab breeders?

[cravertosu]

Hey All,

Looking to get a black lab puppy sometime after the first of the year.
Was wondering if someone knew a quality breeder that has a great hunting line.

I'd really prefer that they are on the larger side. If we can have a good chance of him being over 100lbs, that would be great!

Black is the preference but I'd have no issue with a chocolate if he has big parents.

Don't have any issue with traveling within a few hundred miles of NC.

Thanks,
Tim

Tim,
Not sure about the larger labs, But it would be well worth your time to give Kim at www.blueridgeretrievers.com a call or email.

Our 2 YO Lab Koa is from her kennel - really great dog, lots of Hunting Awards in the blood lines, even though I don't hunt.

At worst, she could point you in the right direction. She is located in Va.

Thanks Capt!

That have a great looking site and some beautiful dogs! They are a bit smaller than I'd prefer but looks like a standout place!

Tim...... I got the perfect male! 100lbs. And he said hes willing to help out if you could find a Black Gal willing to stand for him.

Thanks Ace! He is pretty sharp looking! Do you hunt with him?

Talk with Richard here http://www.rwrkennels.com/ if he does not have any he willknow of other litters that may be avaliable.

Oh yes, he hunts. In his younger days he was a go getter! Hes not a boat dog though! To big! Doesnt hunt as much today, mostly his food bowl. Hes been hit by a car twice, thus the cast. The cold water is tuff on him now with the leg and the pelvis being broken.

He says to not pay his injuries no mind.....he still a ladies dog!

One of my good friends just got a pup from Laurel Knob Kennel
These dogs are English Labs and are blockier and stockier than mine. Might be what you are looking for.
