More about Tim and Joanne

  • Why Tim and Joanne started breeding

    My second dog was a female that was so good, my trainer who was supposed to just get her trained as a basic gun dog claimed that she was "The best Labrador I have ever seen in a golden costume"..She went on to become a very accomplished field trial dog, and attained multiple titles. She was to good not to consider keeping her lineage going. The legacy of our kennel began, and thats how we got our start.
