Our Story



We are a small family kennel in Omaha, whelping only 1 -2 litters a year. We are also a young kennel, working very hard to establish a kennel based on ethics, integrity, and the well-being of our family of dogs.


The number of pups is not as important as is the quality of the pups we have to offer.  This allows us to continue to improve our genetics with minor changes as we follow our pups through maturity.


Customer support is ongoing from the day you take the pup home to the days ahead in the field.  Our growth has been primarily through word of mouth and from customers and friends.

What Separates us from other Kennels.


Again, we are small and focused on a select group of dogs and their litters.  Breeding is our focus and our passion. Producing the complete package; temperament, train-ability, desire, confirmation, and instinct...These are the desired end goals for our breeding program.


We focus on producing the best pups available. We feel that is a full-time job and we choose to pour our time and energy that part of the dog.


Due to our location we do not offer training, however, we have several trainers in Nebraska and near by states we can refer you to. It’s like breeding dogs, matching what you’re looking for in a trained dog, may be one trainer’s specialty and not another.  We will do our best to introduce you to 2 or 3 to aid you in your search for a trainer.



Mission Statement:


To maintain a standard that will continue advancing the quality, character, and reliability of the breed type. To preserve the Labrador Retriever as a working retriever and promote its multipurpose function. Our goal is in the next hundred years, the future generations of our Labrador Retrievers will be hunting and playing with our grandchildren and their children. To know the Lab is to love and admire him. He gives his heart and soul and asks only for a kind word.


Our Guarantee is a two-year health guarantee on Hips and eyes with OFA certifications on both sire and dam Health Certificates.


Each dog we deliver must be one we would want as our personal pet.


Why have we chosen to breed Labrador Retrievers?


Thanks to their intelligence, eagerness to please, and willingness to work hard, labradors are invaluable workers in a variety of fields. They’re the among the most popular choices for service dog work, as well as search and rescue, bomb and drug detection, and therapy dog work. Be prepared for endless energy and love.

We provide dogs for multiple reasons. Hunting companions, family pets and service partners.

Chief Puppy Socializers:


Emma, Garrett and Reilly Rickard (grand children)


Socialization is the greatest gift we can give our puppies before they head to a new home.


As a new family member or hunting companion, it is critical the pup be socialized as early as possible, and this process continues throughout their lives.


We feel between 3 and 12 weeks of age is the sweet spot for socializing a puppy, that is why we take this part of their beginning lives in our kennel very seriously. It’s also a lot of fun.
