We are located in Northern New Jersey. We purchased our
first Lab, a black male we named Baron, in 1980 and have been in love ever since! We exhibit mostly in conformation but breed for dogs that exemplify all
the outstanding characteristics of the Labrador and who would succeed in any venue, obedience, agility, field or
service. Most importantly, we hope they'll make the very best family companions. All our dogs are house dogs,
though they do "rotate" between the house and the kennel.....
Each breeding is carefully planned. We only breed when we're planning to keep a new pup for ourselves. We strive
to breed good looking, healthy dogs with outstanding temperaments. All our dogs are hip, elbow, heart and eye cleared
as well as DNA tested for various known genetic disorders. All puppies are placed on an AKC Limited Registration. They
are vet checked, micro-chipped, will have had their first shot, been de-wormed and checked by an ophthalmologist before they
go home. We encourage our puppy families to stay in touch we love to hear about the dogs and hope to be a resource to
their owners throughout their lives.
Nowadays, my daughter does most of the showing. I'm very active in The
Jersey Skylands Labrador Retriever Club, I've held a number of offices, President, Vice President and Secretary.
I chair our very well attended Health Clinic every winter. Please contact us if you have any questions or would
like to know more about any of our dogs...... For
many years we fed and recommended Orijen dog food, we are no longer feeding it, at least until more is known about DCM, we
have decided to move all the dogs to Purina's ProPlan formulas. I'm happy to say the dogs look great and are doing really
well on ProPlan. Donna Forte Email: brookberry@embarqmail.com Phone: 973-729-6211
