About Us 

Over 25 years of experience in training and showing Labradors has turned a hobby into a passion.  Now located in Rockford, Illinois, we began training and showing labs decades ago and have no desire to slow down!  Our dogs are our not only our passion but also our family – a family that grows with every new litter and the families they go to.    

As breeders, we always work to achieve something better with each litter that we produce.  All of our dogs are OFA certified for their hips and elbows. Their eyes are also cleared through CERF.  We require the same certifications for all dogs that we breed to. Our Labradors are bred for good temperament, looks, and trainability, and we have a sound reputation for producing quality labs - as seen by the demand for our pups.

Many of our litters have waiting lists prior to the breeding even taking place.  If you are interested in information, please let us know as soon as possible and we’ll be happy to assist.  We have complete packets of information on both sire and dam of any litter we are expecting.  Once a litter arrives, we encourage prospective new puppy owners to visit and be a part of the raising of the puppies. We are always available after the puppies have gone home for any information or troubleshooting you may need help with.

Puddle Jumper Labs also provides puppy training as well as general obedience and agility training courses, on site.  Classes are offered throughout the year, and we’ve had many successful graduates.  Please visit our classes page for further information about upcoming offerings.
