I'm the breeder behind Tidal Retrievers located in North Carolina. We are passionate about upholding and preserving the classic, stunning and versatile breed that a Labrador is. Dogs in our program are extensively health tested. They prove their temperament and structure through AKC titles like conformation, Dock diving or tests like the Canine Good Citizen.

Certified Good Dog breeders ensure their puppies are healthy and ready for their new homes. Puppies receive the appropriate vaccinations and are dewormed or have a clear fecal exam before they leave. While Tidal Retrievers hasn’t shared details about their specific health practices yet, we encourage you to reach out to learn more about how they care for their puppies.
Your puppy may come with extra benefits, like a small bag of food or a toy carrying the scent of their littermates. While Tidal Retrievers 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.
Anne & Griffin offers options to help you easily get your new puppy home.
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’ll meet at a mutually convenient halfway point to drop off your puppy. Once your application is approved, we’ll coordinate the details for your pick-up day together.
Why Anne & Griffin started breeding
We bought our own Labrador puppy in 2019. He went on to become a very successful service dog for our co-owner, Griffin. We have fallen in love with the dogs as well as people in our Labrador community. We wanted to produce puppies that could go on to save lives like Ellis did for us.
