Riley is a lovely black boy possessing the traits of a well-bred "English" style Labrador Retriever. He can relax in the house but is all go in the field. A beautiful head, nice structure and plenty of bone makes a great package he passes on to his offspring. He has a beautiful, dense coat with the desired undercoat of a water dog and the unique Labrador "otter tail" so often missing in the breed today.
Riley possesses exceptional skill at marking birds (the ability to remember where a bird fell ). He inherited it from his dam, Roxi, who inherited from her dam, Liza, and sire "Am/Can CH Big Ben of Fawnhaven SH RN CGC" He is soft mouthed, has great prey drive but hunts with his owner not in spite of him.
Riley comes from a long line of Labradors Retrievers specifically bred to be sound, healthy companion dogs and gentleman hunters.

Joy is all of what her father Riley is but in a small package.
She has a great temperament and a delightful personality.

The girl that started my adult love and passion
for the Labrador Retriever.
She was everything I wanted and so much more.
