British Labs

[superfish2]

There are two breeders that I know of in WI, both by River falls. I think there is one more in stillwater. Just do a search for them in yahoo and they will come up.

Anyone know of any breeders around?
Anyone have one? I'm curious about them after seeing one a few weeks ago. Beautiful dog, and even more so, it's behavior!!!

I have a British lab of approximately 2 years old now. Wow, there is such a difference between the normal "American" domestic labs and the Britsh labs. Much more calm, faster to respect, and in my opinion, friendlier. I think of the British lab more as a little gentleman compared to the other labs. Have had many compliments on how timid and gentle he is. Along with a better personality in my opinion, I think they look better also, with a more square head, shorter and stockier body. I would definitely recommend at least looking into one. It is a little more complicated of a process to obtain one of these dogs, however. I think it really helps if you can find a dog with some heritage, also. Mine came from a mother who was a show dog in Britain. If you do a search on the internet you should be able to find a few breeders in the area. I know there are quite a few in the southeastern part of the state. If you have any more questions I would be happy to answer them, if at all possible.

Hammer em The Horse N Hunt club in Prior Lake would be my start. A buddy of mine has one that has a connection to Horse N Hunt and I know what you mean, calm, well behaved, great hunter, nice compact size. Apparantly, our political writer (I mean outdoor writer, sometimes he confuses me)for the Star and Trib has british lab kennels also, he has a web site with all the info you're looking for.

If you have a larger book store or a good place to get magazines in your area pick up a copy of Gun Dog Magazine there are several ads in the back for British labs.

Thanks,
I will perhaps stop by the Horse and Hunt club sometime. Even the fiance' thought she could control that dog with ease.

Consider the Grand River line of dogs also, have the temperment much like a British lab, but a build that is better for running upland.
