We are a small family kennel located in the upper Sacramento Valley. Our purebred chocolate labrador sire and dame are loved and valued family members. We expect to have only about 1 litter per year, and it is a family project. Our chocolate lab puppies will come home to you around 8 wks old with their first shots wormed and dew claws removed, and all the paper work needed for the AKC to register your puppy. The most important thing for us is they go to the best loving families. Snoopy-Girl, Roxy and Duke are all Purebred Chocolate Labs with their Pedigree Certificate. We raise our puppies inside our home, so you will be getting a much loved, well socialized puppy. Have a look at some of our chocolate lab family photos.

This makes them an excellent choice for a family dog and they are great with kids.
