Welcome to Nipntuck Labradors
Woodinville, WA
Breeding extraordinary Labradors since 1984
The dogs and Kate enjoying a beautiful June day on Mutiny Bay
Welcome to Nipntuck Labradors, home of specialty winning show Champions,
nationally ranked obedience competitors, classic hunting partners, and fabulous
babysitters. Our dogs spend their weekends at dog shows and hunting and every
day as beloved housepets and family members.
We pride ourselves on a kennel that produces true, quality Labradors: Dogs
with the type and substance to compete in the show ring at the highest levels;
the intelligence and trainability for field or obedience work; and the temperament
to be a sound, stable, beloved family companion. Our journey in Labradors has
always kept temperament an absolute priority. We are enjoying the trip.
Jock is for sale. He is an absolutely beautiful yellow male out of our Rah Rah, 14 months old, has the potential to be a top notch show dog. He is offered to either a pet or show home.
Coal won PSLRA! His second specialty Best in Show. He also finished his AKC Championship with great style, going WD, BOB, and a Group 4 in the spectacular Sporting Group at the huge Rose City Classic dog show. He is currently ranked in the top ten of show Labradors in the country. His daughter, Eva, was WB and BOS, and Dually was RWD from the 6-9 month class. The Labrador entry was 90, with multiple nationally ranked specials. It was a great weekend, thank you judge Michael Faulkner! Here is a clip of him in the Group, and a slideshow of our pictures.
*Becky had the great honor of judging the sweepstakes dog classes at the incredible Labrador Retriever Club of the Potomac last year. This is the biggest specialty show in the world, total Labrador entry for 2009 was 1,508. Come see pictures and the class placements/critiques, and new pictures of our two litters last summer.*
New pictures from the last year, set to my theme song.
Here is the short clip of Coal and Becky on Animal Planet. See all our latest news.
Kate and Becky with their championships saddles they both won at the 2009 WWGA O-Mok-See, August 21-23. We have a slideshow of the weekend.
Come read about my big adventure buying a new horse and see pictures of the amazing Jud Little Ranch in Springer, OK, where I purchased her.
The Labradors in our breeding program have done some remarkable things in the last 26 years, not the least of which is producing wonderful puppies. We continue to be proud of the sound, sweet, lovely Labradors our girls are giving us. All of our breeding stock is radiographed and results submitted to the OFA--Orthopedic Foundation for Animals. It is, simply, the best way we as breeders have of reducing the incidence of genetic orthopedic diseases in our dogs. We also have eye exams done each year, and our stud dogs have heart clearances performed by cardiologists.
At Nipntuck Labradors we feel the relationship with puppy buyers should last for the life of that dog. Our Nipntuck puppies are simply guaranteed for life. Many buyers make their initial contact with us long before a litter is even conceived. Once you have decided to purchase a Labrador puppy, we recommend you plan on six months to a year of research (visiting breeders and meeting dogs), planning, and waiting. If you are just beginning this process, please read this article I co-authored for the Puget Sound Labrador Retriever Club on Breeder and Buyer's Responsibilities to help understand what to look for in your search. And, please, before you begin the process, be sure that a Labrador is, indeed, the right breed for you. (We are sure, however, that if you are visiting this site, you are unlikely to ever purchase a Labradoodle.) Come see what litters we are expecting this year, or visit the boys page to see a list of litters sired by our stud dogs.
(What happens when kids are left unsupervised with puppies and a camera.)
Labrador Retriever Clubs
I serve on the Board and have been a proud member of the Puget Sound Labrador Retriever Association PSLRA since 1985. If there was ever a more fun, ethical, generous group of people, I haven't met them. I am also on the Board of the National Labrador Retriever Club, and of the Hollywood Hill Saddle Club HHSC. I am the webmaster and newsletter editor, and enjoy working for this unique club. Its 11 acres, arena, trails, and buildings are in the care of its members, and HHSC helps us to live this marvelous equestrian lifestyle in a suburban setting.
