I'm the breeder behind Silver Lake Labs located in Waterville, MN. My primary focus is to produce dogs with strong working ability, solid temperaments, great health, and sound structure. I am conscious of the overall health, longevity, and genetics of both my breeding dogs and the puppies I produce. My puppies are well-rounded and will excel in any adventure with their new family.
About Tom
I am very proud to be breeding these incredible dogs. It is important to me that I am breeding versatile, socialized, and healthy puppies for my buyers to welcome into their homes. I breed for quality over quantity and take pride in what I do and what I aim to achieve as a breeder.
What makes Tom’s program special
I truly admire Labrador Retrievers and am dedicated to looking out for the breed as a whole. I know the health and status of every dog I have bred and am proud of the temperament, conformation, and working drives of my puppies. I can provide extensive knowledge and guidance for any family looking to adopt one of these wonderful dogs.

I do my best to begin training my puppies to prepare them for success in their new homes. I utilize the following enrichment methods: Initial House Training, Various Surfaces, Sound Stimulation, Household Desensitization, and Various People.
Puppies are dewormed, vaccinated, have dewclaws removed, are microchipped, and receive a veterinary exam prior to going to their forever homes.
We send our puppies home with Microchip.
