We gratefully share our lives and hearts with several incredible Chocolate Labrador Retrievers. This amazing breed
captured our hearts in 1989 with the purchase of our very first Labrador, Prince. Since that time, we have learned so much
about the breed and what qualities go into making an exceptional Labrador Retriever. The loyalty, intelligence, love and affection
of these wonderful creatures continues to impress us to this day. We thoroughly enjoy working with our dogs in obedience
but find them to be the most wonderful companions in all aspects of our lives. We feel very fortunate
to have a lifestyle that allows us to include our dogs in most of the activities we do throughout
the day.
We try to plan a few litters each year, in hopes of producing a puppy or two that will be worthy to keep as a
future prospect for ourselves. The majority of our puppies will be placed in outstanding, thoroughly screened companion
homes. Each litter is carefully planned and highly anticipated and the puppies are born into the most nurturing and caring
environment possible.

We believe in
careful health screening through OFA, CERF, and OPTIGEN for dogs that may be used for breeding. All of our
adult dogs have their hips and elbows xrayed and cleared of hip or elbow dysplasia. Our dogs also have their eyes regularly
cleared by a board certified Veterinary Opthamologist and at least one of the parents of each litter will require additional
genetic testing and clearance through Optigen for the absence of the gene that causes Progressive Retinal Atrophy (PRA). This
eliminates any chance that a Bridge Creek puppy can later be affected by this disease.
As dedicated
breeders, we stand behind each of our puppies with written health, hip, elbow, and eye guarantees as well as a Lifetime Return
policy on every puppy that we sell at any point in its entire life.
We are
also very pleased to offer six weeks of complimentary Pet Secure insurance coverage with each of our puppies for veterinary
fees relating to a new puppy's illness, accident, theft, or loss.
