Nala’s Perfect Cream English Labrador puppies are a little over a week now, and just the cutest little bundles of creamy sweetness! A few pups have some yellow on them, and most pups darken a bit as they age, but these pups are glorious examples of “white” or “cream” or “Polar white” labrador pups. There are 4 females and 3 males in this litter, and so far they are all doing extremely well! Remember that the first two weeks are the most critical, but we are very pleased with their growth and strength at this point. They are making their little et-epimeletic sounds, pushing around for mama, cuddling up together,…

Our sweet Adrian comes to us from the same wonderful Russian kennel as Belle – although they are not sisters. She is the most petite of our dams but still within the AKC breed standards for Labrador retrievers. Her ladylike demeanor is unique and we just love her for it. Adrian is a focused and mild mannered chocolate labrador with excellent lineage. She is calm, affectionate and loyal and has made every veterinarian and intern who sees her say, “wow! She is so much calmer than most Chocolate Labs!” Don’t get me wrong; she loves to play! She is ladylike, and loving – gentle and sweet – more timid but…

Happy Mother’s Day everyone! I hope you’re all celebrating and having a great time and having fun looking at some beautiful pictures of Piper’s Girls! I also hope you saw my post yesterday introducing Piper’s Boys – if not, check it out! Here is Miss Orange – a beautiful Chocolate English Labrador Puppy Miss Purple – our lovely Black English Labrador Puppy Miss White – Chocolate Lab Puppy Perfection Miss Red – the softest coat ever – our Black English Labrador Pup Thanks for keeping up with us! And incidentally, I heard our website was down for a few minutes today – I apologize! Hopefully the bug has been fixed!…

This post is specifically going to introduce you to the boys from Piper’s litter, and I hope it’s going to bring you some warm fuzzies! These little boys are everything I want in a lab puppy: chunky, affectionate, blocky heads and the sweetest deliverers of puppy kisses! There are 4 black males and one chocolate male, and we couldn’t be more thrilled. The puppies are still a bit young to discern many differences in personality, but we love their playfulness and affection. This sweet boy busted his collar, along with his brother, *right before our mini photo shoot. So, here he is, before his replacement collar: Here is the sweet…

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…
