Stonebrook Retrievers is located in the North Dallas area, and our focus is to combine the pedigrees of some of the most potent producers and accomplished competitors in Field Trials and Hunt Test venues. Our goals are to breed healthy Labrador Retrievers with superior intelligence, retrieving desire, trainability, looks, and loving dispositions. We strive to produce companions of the highest quality that can also be an excellent hunting buddy and/or compete at the highest level.
We believe that pedigree, socialization, and the training a pup receives throughout his or her life are equally critical in developing an accomplished, well-rounded retriever and companion. With those three pillars in mind, we work very hard to see that every measure is taken to help give each puppy the best possible start before they leave to go to their new homes.
Jason's interest in training retrievers began when he was at the park as a young boy, and saw a man training his Lab. He approached the guy and inquired, and the rest is history. He still remembers the name of his dog, as the man called it to release him to retrieve...his name was "Deacon".
I'm sure our story is like many others'. We got started on this path because of a love of Labs and hunting. It then evolved into enjoying watching the dogs work as much or more than hunting itself. Then came the introduction of Hunt Tests, and soon after Field Trials. We only wish we had gotten started on the competitive path sooner with our dogs, as it has become one of our favorite hobbies. Our dogs are first and foremost our pets. They live in our home with us, and we love to spoil them. We are avid hunters, and try to schedule our breeding and competition endeavors around that.
The desire to raise puppies was "born" out of our understanding that a well bred puppy can bring years and years of happiness to a family and leave an impression for a lifetime. Hearing about the impact of our puppies fuels us as we move forward in our attempt to breed the highest quality companions and competitors available, each generation improving on the last.
We are always very eager to help you in any way we can. If you have any questions or need to get in contact with us, please don't hesitate. We look forward to hearing from you!
