Ringo x Kelee

12 beautiful puppies were whelped and went to 12 great families.  We were very proud of the quality of homes these dogs have.  This breeding combined the champion pedigree of Ringo and the intelligence, trainability, and athleticism of Kelee.  A few testimonials are below.  Also below are pictures of the puppies, both when they were with us and how they are doing in their new homes.  Some of the names include "Doc," "Daisy," "Rooster," "Pearl," "Nala," "Huck," Gus," and "Sister."  We miss these puppies but they have great homes!

 

"Doc is a healthy pup and knows how to sit, stay, and come on command.  My husband has taken him to scout duck ponds and shooting hasn't bothered him a bit.  He's a smart boy and a cuddlbe bug.  We love him dearly."

M.J.   Grove Hill, Alabama

​

"I'm a longtime “Lab Guy” and this has to be the most well rounded dog I’ve been blessed with. Great temperament not to mention simply beautiful."  P.W.  Selma, Alabama

​

"We gave Daisy to our 4 children as a Christmas gift.  To say they were exited is an understatement. Daisy fits into our family great and we are excited for a life with her. She will not only be a great companion at home but also learn to hunt and retrieve quail, pheasant and ducks."  R.P.  Panama City, Florida

​

"My fiance is in love with him and won't put him down.  He's very well behaved and I'm impressed with how fast he's already responding to basic commands."  L.L.  Huntsville, Alabama

​

"We love Goose. He is the smartest puppy and we are so in love with him. Thanks so much. Glad we found you and that precious puppy."  B.W.  Colquitt, Georgia

​

"Nala is growing like a weed and just precious.  She's picking up on training quickly.  She is by my side most of the time when I'm home.  We are so smitten with her."  C.M.  Madison, Alabama
