I'm the breeder behind Rebellion Labradors located in Fombell, PA. Temperament is vital—a Labrador must be friendly and outgoing. We do all health tests available for Labradors to ensure you are acquiring the healthiest puppy possible. Puppies are raised in our living room from day one, ensuring optimal socialization. We follow the AKC breed standard and set high standards for our breeding program.
About Cheri
I started dog sports with my first two Labs in AKC obedience, conformation, hunt tests. I began breeding with my third Lab, Naya, who was my foundation female. I currently have my sixth generation of Labradors in my home with my youngest, Rune. At my day job, I work for a domestic violence organization, training, and utilizing Canine Advocates to help victims in court and counseling.
What makes Cheri’s program special
I thoroughly enjoy watching a conformation titled dog work in the field. In my opinion, a Labrador should be able to go from the show ring in the morning to the field in the afternoon.

Puppies are born and raised in my living room area for maximum household socialization. Early Neurological Stimulation takes place during the first week. Puppies get floor and hanging toys, scent enrichment, noisy baby toys, climbing toys (slides, ramps), tunnels, and plenty of outdoor time. Puppies are litterbox housebroken and introduced to swimming and bird wings prior to going home. I utilize the following enrichment methods: Car Rides, Outdoors, e.g. rain, Strangers, Structures, e.g. Climbing, Toys, e.g. Ball, Chew, e.g. Bone, Touch Desensitization, Household Desensitization, Sound Stimulation, Socialized with Adult Dogs, Socialized with Children, Water Introduction, Bird Introduction, Litter Box Trained, Car Training , "No" Biting or Chewing, and Human Interactions .
All puppies are vaccinated & dewormed on a veterinary approved schedule, and go home with an individual veterinarian health certificate. Puppies are raised on high-quality kibble with raw food supplements. Puppies are guaranteed to be in good health, and the buyer may return the puppy (with unsigned registration papers) within 72 hours for any reason for a full refund.
We send our puppies home with Vaccinations, Puppy Starter Kit, Microchip, Food Starter Bag, Certificate of Health, and AKC Registration.

Why Cheri started breeding
My first job as an adult was for a well known Labrador breeding kennel. It was from this breeder that I acquired my first three dogs, including my foundation female, Naya. I joined the Greater Pittsburgh Labrador Retriever Club to learn from the breeders and dog sport enthusiasts, prior to breeding my first litter.
