Wow, guys. What a few weeks we have had over here at Kindred Pup. I wanted to send out a Puppy Update, plus 2 bonus updates, but it is taking me a bit longer to get pics uploaded than I thought. I’ll be sending pics out over the weekend, but wanted to get this to you quickly, since I know you’re all anxious to see some Labrador Puppy Cuteness! Here are Piper’s sweet girls: And here are a few pictures of the boys: Alright, so there is a mini Puppy Update, but what of the 2 Bonus Updates?! Our sweet Nala delivered 7 beautiful puppies a few days ago, and…

Piper’s puppies are almost 2 weeks old now, and they are BEAUTIFUL. English Labrador puppies are always adorable, but these puppies are amazing. They are all thick as can be, doubled their weight on time, are healthy and thriving, and scooting all over the place these days! We are so thankful for this healthy litter – most of you know what our year has been like so far – and it just seems like an extra little blessing. We LOVE their rich colors! Newborn Labradors don’t much care for the camera, and getting them to stay still long enough to introduce you to these precious puppies was no small feat.…

With the addition of a new puppy, comes a new need for Puppy Training. Given that many are learning new skills online, it’s no wonder that Online Puppy Training options have increased dramatically. Our family, personally, has thoroughly enjoyed Brandon McMillan’s Masterclass. This class is taught in very small, manageable chunks, and is pretty straightforward. I realize that this option requires a subscription to Masterclass, and therefore may not be the most practical for everyone. Because of the nature of being a dog breeder, and the Mastermind that is digital marketing (hello, stalker!!!), I get tons and tons of advertisements for dog related products. Lately, it has been an inundation…

I will be officially introducing Miss Adrian here in another week or two, but she is our (hopefully) pregnant chocolate mama, and this is her happy place. My whole family loves dogs and puppies to the point of obsession, but my husband is affectionately known around here as the “dog whisperer”. He is King of the Labrador’s Happy Place. It’s hard to explain what it is about this man, and these dogs, but they all have such a sweet relationship with him. They seem to unwind with him. They get cared for by me (brushing, teeth check, nail trim, vaccinations, etc.); they get played with by all the kiddos; they…

English Labrador Puppies Soon! Yellow, Black and Chocolate! We are THRILLED to announce that Nala’s pregnancy has been confirmed and a beautiful litter of yellow/cream English lab puppies will be here soon! That means that in the next month we will hear their little newborn squeaks and know what colors they will be! Soon we will have little puppies romping around with our kiddos and enjoying a beautiful Colorado Spring! We LOVE this girl, and are certain that her pups with Bronxx will be so beautiful and so well-tempered that they will woo even the strictest anti-dog person. (Do those people exist?! If they do, these pups will change their…

You guys… I know it’s a Snow Day and I first and foremost hope all of you are warm and safe somewhere in this storm. But if you are, I hope you enjoy this post. Because Snow Days ARE Labrador days, and our Labs LOVE IT. We can’t hardly keep them inside! I’ve attached a few photos and hopefully will embed a few videos for you, too. Nala is just the sweetest Labrador. Always at your side and eager to please – she is calm, affectionate, and has been moving slightly slower this past week. (Maybe, just maybe a sign of her successful honeymoon with Bronxx???? Let’s hope!) Occasionally, just…

We are so very thankful to have such a wonderful group of people on our Reservation List. Every “meeting” leaves our family saying “they’re our favorite” and “I’m so glad – they’re so nice”. In all the workload of breeding puppies and raising dogs, the thing that worries us the most is that we want all our puppies to find loving, caring homes. And so far, we’ve been THRILLED with the homes that have welcomed a Kindred Pup labrador into their lives. These two sweet females “met” their families this past week and will be ready to head home in just two weeks! There are more puppies in our future!…

We have been so excited to introduce you to our Sweet Piper – a perfect black Labrador retriever. Since you are “meeting” her online, we will try to do our best to describe her to you. Piper came to us from a wonderful breeder in the Ukraine from wonderful lines. We have just fallen in love with her and we know you will, too. Piper is playful and easy-going, but has a wonderful protective instinct over our family, especially the younger kiddos. Piper has passed her hips/elbows test in the Ukraine, rating “good” and “excellent”. Her pedigree is littered with excellent sires and dams from both hunting/sport and show lines.…

Thank you all for your enormous interest in our program! We have so enjoyed emailing with you, hearing your stories and how you’ve longed for a wonderful Labrador. I am absolutely thrilled at how wonderful our soon-to-be Kindred Pup families are! We are considering making a few changes to our current set up for reservations but will make sure this does not affect our current families in anyway. Follow along for updates! Meanwhile, Miss Belle is so very ready for these pups. She’s very slow these days, I’m attaching this picture of her outside today for your sympathy. I am also sharing a picture of her Xray today! For fun,…

Hi everyone! Before I discuss the Reservation List Closure, I want to thank everyone for your interest in our program. We LOVE what we do and are so very thankful for all of the families/people who have put their trust in us to breed and raise their perfect pet. Our Reservation List is full of wonderful, labrador loving families from Colorado and the surrounding states and I cannot wait to meet you all! Now down to the point of this post: if you have been following us for a while you have seen that we recently changed our Reservation List processes. Our current model allows families to place a deposit…
