About

Wilann Labradors is located at our home in Suffield, CT.  My love of Labradors began in childhood when my family owned a wonderful Labrador mix. As an adult when we wanted to add a dog to our home I knew that a Labrador was the perfect choice because of its fabulous temperament and genuine desire to please.

Our first Labrador was a wonderful yellow boy we called Max. Max came from show and field lines. He became our beloved pet that grew up alongside our children. He lived to a healthy age of 15, maintaining his youthful love of life and our family right up to the end.

Toots (Tootsieroll Wilson Brownstone CD RE CGC) joined our family two years later. She was a chocolate girl with Field and Conformation Labradors in her background. She was very intelligent and very friendly. She loved to train and showed her talents in the Obedience Ring. Tootsie became our foundation bitch. Since Tootsie we have grown to include black and yellow Labradors in our breeding program. We like to keep our girls in the house with us and therefore we will remain a small hobby kennel. I enjoy the opportunity to work with each of the girls and allowing them to showcase how intelligent they are and how fabulous the Labrador Breed is.

I am a member of three local Labrador Retriever Clubs, the Labrador Retriever Club of the Pioneer Valley (LRCPV), the Labrador Retriever Club of Greater Boston (LRCGB) and the Labrador Retriever Club of the Potomac (LRCP).  I am also a member of the National Labrador Club, The Labrador Retriever Club, Inc. I am also a member of an all breed club, Yankee Waterfowlers Hunting Retriever Club. Additionally, I actively participate in dog sports offered by various Labrador and All Breed clubs.

Our girls whelp and raise their puppies in our home allowing them to develop in a family home environment while following service organizations guidelines. These include socialization with people of different sizes, ages and dress; various tactile experiences with introduction of unique surfaces to walk and play on; introduction to numerous loud and sudden sounds; the beginning of crate training; and of lots love and attention.

Before going home all the pups have begun or completed litter box training and all are comfortable in crates, many comfortable crated alone as well as together. Each puppy comes with a health guarantee, has had its first veterinarian visit and vaccinations, has been wormed and micro chipped.

We breed infrequently, once or twice every year or two. Our girls have all their health clearances which can be viewed on their individual pages. Selected studs also have had full health clearances. Our goal is to breed correct Labrador conformation and temperament. We strive to produce healthy, sound, friendly and intelligent Labradors.

Thank you for visiting Wilann Labradors.
