Doc, I need help on finding a lab

Keown · 03-02-2004, 09:51 AM

Doc or anybody else-I would like to get a Lab in the very near future. I have had two labs before but the breeder I got them from has shifted his emphasis away from hunters and field trial to show stock. I live in AZ and wondered if anyone could point me to a reliable breeder in AZ, New Mexico, Utah, Colorado, or Nebraska. I may not be able to hunt as much as I would like (health may make that decision for me) but still intend to train as a retriever. So any help would be greatly appreciated on finding a good breeder.

I haven't looked into Lab Breeders in your area for a long time, so the only one I know about only breeds Pointing Labs, and not traditional Flushing Labs. The PL breeder is Black Forest Kennels www.pointinglabrador.com Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

Thanks for the feedback. I am going to show my ignorance-I have no experience with Pointing Labs-what are the difference between the two types-pointing versus flushing besides the obvious things inplied in the title?

I will be breeding my bitch when she comes in near July. I have some excellent bloodline in her pedigree, and a very good line on a sire which is a decendant of "Watermark's 'The Boss'". Feel free to contact me if you would like more details.

This is Annie's pedigree...

thanks-I live in Arizona and it may be a bit far to come and get the pup. I will however keep your address and let you know.
