G'day, we are a small kennel situated at Macarthur, half way between Hamilton and Pt Fairy on the south west coast of Victoria, Australia, approximately 4 hours from Melbourne.  We were lucky to get our first girl Sally way back in 1977, for our firstborn daughter Tarryn. She was the most wonderful placid of labs and was also a fabulous retriever. She was the foundation of our kennels along with her 'aunt' Bella, who is behind all our current stock. Sally and Bella were grandaughters of FT & RT CH Pantherdell Cougar.
Our 4 children - Tarryn, Simon, Kate and Nick have grown up with their best mates and companions and although it has been sad losing our best friends along the way, we have had many years of wonderful enjoyment from this fabulous breed.

We have always concentrated on breeding labs with the most wonderful of temperaments, brains and the ability to do a days work, while keeping to the breed standard.

Our dogs are fortunate that we live on 40 acres in the middle of 100's of acres of grazing land and so have lots of exercise, usually  a dam full of water and lots of love. Most of our dogs share some time in the house when not out in their big yards and all our puppies are whelped inside and are very well socialised.

We generally only have 1 - 2 litters a year, sometimes 3 and generally have a waiting list . Most of our puppy buyers are from word of mouth or repeat buyers.

We do not breed for a specific colour, although we have more blacks than yellows and very occasionally chocolate, depending on the bloodline we have used.

We guarantee all our puppies for temperament and the ability to lead a normal life and offer a free replacement/money back guarantee - see the breeding ethics page.

Linda, Greg, Kate and now our adorable models - Chelsea, Josh and Riley, our future 2 legged stars and Olivia our oldest grand daughter.
