My scrapbook page is a small representation of a 43 year commitment of my life, working, training, showing, breeding, Judging, and loving the Labrador Retriever. Here at Blackthorn we strive to breed a beautiful, sound, healthy Labrador with exceptional temperament. A dog that can work all day in the field yet beautiful enough to compete in the show ring and calm enough to come home and be an intricate part of family life. We are proud of our Blackthorn Labradors and feel they are recognized for the quality that years of dedication in our breeding program has provided.
