Meet Ginny! 🐾❤️
Ginny is a beautiful, 1½-year-old Fox Red Labrador Retriever, born March 31, 2025. She is an intact female with full AKC registration available and a smaller, more compact build than many Labrador Retrievers.
Ginny has a wonderfully steady temperament, an easygoing personality, and a strong desire to be with her person. She's a lower-drive Labrador who values companionship over constant activity, making her an excellent prospect for someone seeking a devoted family companion or a potential therapy dog.
Originally selected as a prospective addition to our breeding program, Ginny is now available as we've decided to retain a Fox Red puppy from our most recent litter instead.
A Little About Ginny:
Breed: Labrador Retriever
Color: Fox Red (Yellow)
Sex: Intact Female
Registration: Full AKC Registration Available
Size: Smaller in stature
Temperament: Steady, easygoing, affectionate, and handler-oriented
Vaccinations: Bordetella current through October 10, 2027. Rabies and DHLPP will be updated prior to placement.
Temperament & Personality:
Ginny has a wonderfully balanced personality. While Labrador Retrievers are often associated with high energy, intense retrieving instincts, and an overwhelming love of water, Ginny falls on the more laid-back end of the spectrum.
She is a lower-drive Labrador who enjoys spending time with her people without constantly needing a job or activity to occupy her.
Ginny is food-motivated and enjoys working for rewards, but she maintains a clear head around food rather than becoming overly excited or frantic. Her toy drive is relatively low, and while she is comfortable around water, she isn't the type of Labrador who feels the need to dive into every pond or puddle she encounters.
One of Ginny's strongest qualities is her natural connection with her handler. She genuinely prefers being with her person and is happiest when she can be included in everyday activities.
Socialization & Compatibility:
Ginny has a very steady, agreeable temperament and has done wonderfully around our children.
She also gets along well with other dogs, including males and females, regardless of whether they are intact or altered. She has not demonstrated issues with the other dogs in our care.
Her calm demeanor, handler focus, and easygoing nature make her a wonderful candidate for a variety of households.
Training & Potential:
Ginny's temperament is one of the things we appreciate most about her.
Because of her naturally steady personality, strong handler orientation, and lower drive, we believe she could be an excellent prospect for someone interested in pursuing therapy dog work.
While she is not currently a certified therapy dog, she possesses several qualities that could make her well-suited for that type of work with appropriate training, socialization, and evaluation.
She would also make a lovely companion for someone interested in obedience training, recreational activities, or simply enjoying life with a well-balanced Labrador.
Why We're Placing Ginny:
Ginny was originally purchased as a prospective addition to our breeding program, contingent upon completing appropriate titles, health testing, and evaluations.
However, as our breeding plans have evolved, we have decided to retain a Fox Red Labrador from our most recent litter instead.
This decision is not due to any known behavioral concerns with Ginny. Rather, it reflects a change in the direction of our breeding program.
We believe Ginny deserves the opportunity to be someone's primary companion, where her wonderful temperament and devotion to her person can truly shine.
What We're Looking For:
Ginny would be a great fit for someone seeking a loyal, affectionate Labrador with a more moderate energy level.
Her ideal home would be one that:
- Values companionship and enjoys including their dog in everyday life.
- Appreciates a Labrador with a calmer, lower-drive temperament.
- Can provide appropriate exercise, enrichment, and continued training.
- Is interested in developing a strong relationship with their dog.
- May be interested in exploring therapy dog work or other activities suited to her personality.
Ginny is a wonderful example of how not every Labrador needs to be an intense hunting, retrieving, or sporting dog to be an exceptional companion.
If you're searching for a sweet, devoted Labrador who would rather be by your side than constantly chasing the next tennis ball, Ginny may be exactly what you're looking for!

Frequently Asked Questions
About
Labrador Retriever
Puppies
What's it like owning a Labrador Retriever?
Labrador Retrievers are multi-talented dogs that love people and being active. They come in three colors: black, yellow, and chocolate and are extremely popular for their versatility and friendly disposition. Full-grown, they typically weigh 55-80 pounds and stand 21-25 inches tall.
Are Labrador Retrievers safe around children?
Labrador Retrievers are generally excellent with children of all ages. They don’t do well with being forced to live outside away from their people family, so you should plan to have them living in your house with you. Labrador Retrievers usually get along alright with any feline friends that also call your place home, and they tend to play nice with other dogs as well. They're moderate barkers — they'll alert you when something's up but aren't excessive.
How active are Labrador Retrievers on a daily basis?
Labrador Retrievers are happiest when they get about an hour of exercise every day. You can split that exercise up into morning and evening sessions, but you’ll find that when they’re worn out from exercise they behave a little better at home. People love Labrador Retrievers because they’re up for all types of activities and are exceptionally talented in many arenas. Overall, their exercise needs are very high.
What should I expect with Labrador Retriever shedding?
Labrador Retrievers have a short-medium length coat that will require brushing once or twice a week. There’s no way around it: Labrador Retrievers shed a lot. The more you brush them, the less they’ll shed around your house, but there’s no way to get it all. Grooming-wise, this breed is low-maintenance.
Where do Labrador Retrievers do best — city or country?
Labrador Retrievers are best suited for a house with a good-sized yard. Labrador retrievers can live happily in almost any type of home as long as they get their exercise. They don’t do well with being forced to live outside away from their people family, so you should plan to have them living in your house with you. They are highly trainable and eager to learn.
Puppy Buyer's FAQ

Visit or Video Call the Breeder
Visit in person if possible, or request a live video call to meet the puppy, see its living conditions, and meet the mom. Ask to see where the dogs eat, sleep, and play.
Get a Vet Exam Immediately
Have a vet examine the puppy within two days of bringing it home, even if it seems healthy.
Request Complete Health Records
Ask for vaccination records, deworming history, and vet exam results. For purebreds, ask for parent health clearances.
Get Everything in Writing
Written contract with health guarantees, return/refund policy, and spay/neuter terms. Verbal promises are unenforceable.
Use Secure Payment Methods
Pay with a credit card or another traceable method that offers buyer protection. Avoid wire transfers, crypto, or gift cards, which are difficult to recover.
Verify Breeder Credentials
Check USDA license, state breeder license, breed club memberships, and reviews. Ask for buyer references.
Know What to Look For
A trustworthy breeder welcomes visits, specializes in one or two breeds, prices fairly, and gives you time to decide without pressure.
Know Your State's Laws
Some states have lemon laws; others rely on contract law. Know your rights before you buy.
