Joanna’s experience

  • About Joanna

    My husband and I have had Labradors for almost 30 years now. We take “the kids” with us everywhere! We have a love for dogs and are excited to share that love with you! We breed as a hobby and are determined to provide the best dogs!

  • What makes Joanna’s program special

    Being the hobby breeders we are, we’ve had the opportunity to get to know many folks who are looking to extend their families. It so rewarding to make the connection and many have kept that connection! Our dogs work hard, play hard, love hard, and are part of the family. We prepare all of our pups to excel in life.

What's included

Enrichment and socialization

Our puppies are very socialized with many visits from family and grandchildren. Their ages range from 6-86! The mother’s mother is also in the house so there are many chances to socialize with another “fur friend” other than their mom. I utilize the following enrichment methods: Household Desensitization, Socialized with Adult Dogs, Human Interactions , Puppy Manners, and Potty Training.

Puppy health practices

All puppies will have had their first round of vaccines, are dewormed, and are taken to our vet for health checkups.

Extras

Your puppy may come with extra benefits, like a small bag of food or a toy carrying the scent of their littermates. While Marshview Labs hasn’t shared specifics yet, we encourage you to reach out directly to learn what thoughtful extras they may include to help your puppy transition comfortably into their new home.

Bringing your puppy home

Joanna offers options to help you easily get your new puppy home.

Pick up your puppy in South Thomaston, ME or nearby

If you’re nearby, you can visit in person to pick up your pup. If you’re far away, you can travel by car or plane.

“We do not ship our puppies, but you are welcome to pick up your puppy at our home.”
