Best breeder in NH! They really focus on the care of all their dogs and pups! Very transparent and always keeps the communication lines open. Looking forward to bringing one of their pups home!

Though I only spoke to Laurie via email, she was very friendly and helpful. Generous with her time and answering my questions. And when the puppies from their latest all had homes, Laurie was willing to share other breeders they know that have quality, healthy lab puppies.

Excellent breeders, who devote so much time to their litters and making sure they are prepared for every “next phase of life” in their puppy culture!They produce quality over quality in their program, so the wait for a puppy is well worth it!

We had our first litter of puppies March 2021. Since this was our first, we were (still are) very inexperienced. I literally had no idea what to do or what to expect. The vet believed it was a phantom pregnancy, but 2 weeks before she was ready to whelp, we found out she was pregnant. I reached out to Laurie on Facebook and she immediately gave me helpful information on the supplies, medication, equipment, etc. that was needed. On the night Josie was whelping, Laurie was available through the night (which was incredible and I did not expect that at all). Any questions or concerns I had, she was there. She walked me through the entire process, regardless of what time of night it was. Throughout the first 3-4 weeks of the puppies lives, she was more than happy to help with any questions I had. I can truly say that Laurie & Joe’s Labs made a significant difference in how our puppies were raised. They are now almost 7 months old and are living happy, healthy lives in their new homes.

As Laurie and Joe's photographer, I have had the pleasure of photographing several photo sessions showcasing their beautiful labs, the most recent ones featuring Maddie, Dutch, Shiloh, Coco, and Brandie. As a dog owner myself, I can say that Laurie and Joe's puppies are beautiful in all aspects especially having wonderful dispositions and attitudes. In addition, Laurie is professional and always a pleasure to speak with and certainly to work with. I recommend their dogs very highly to anyone looking to expand their family.

Great services, they truly care about their dogs and what homes they are going to. Their website explains everything in ear detail and their fast and upfront response to emails makes you feel comfortable in the process. Highly recommend you consider choosing their kennel/ dogs for adoption

It is a joy to know Laurie & Joe as friends and fellow Labrador breeders.They have high standards for every part of their program from health clearances, guardian requirements, breeding selection, prenatal care, whelping, puppy development to follow up in home training! This is not just a business to Laurie, puppies are her passion.I have also found Laurie to be wise and freely sharing of her knowledge and experiences. Being a seasoned registered nurse, she communicates professionally with sound advice to novice breeders in a number of forums.We have referred clients to her and received the same because of our geographical/timing differences and every single one of them has been pleased. In short, I would trust her with any of my dogs.

I have trained with several puppies produced by Laurie and Joe. These puppies are so easy to teach and come with the groundwork laid for many skills. Things like potty training and proper world exposure will be started before you bring your puppy home. The sires and dams used as breeding stock are excellent quality. They are health tested and cleared prior to breeding as any responsible breeders should do and have excellent temperament. I recommend Laurie's and Joe's labs for amazing pets for family homes and even service dog candidates.

Laurie has been a wonderful resource and mentor through many years. She is always very thoughtful and considerate of her responses to my questions. Laurie selflessly gives her time in the betterment of dogs. I love her breeding morals & ethics. As a breeder myself I even refer clients to her if I’m unable to assist in them finding the perfect pup for their family. I highly encourage anyone looking for a puppy to consider Laurie’s puppies. She goes above and beyond in all training and care of her puppies and adult dogs!

While I've known Laurie in her capacity as a breeder for years, I became more closely associated over the past year and half. Her willingness to share her knowledge with others has been heartwarming and inspiring.Once, at 3:30 in the morning, I put out a call for help with a litter. Laurie didn't hesitate to answer that plea. Her help was spot on, timely, and professional. While I lost a pup from that litter5 days later, I was able to save the others. And Laurie was there to offer support with my loss.Time and again, I see Laurie's stellar practices in video and photo posts online. Daily curriculum and care above the expected level means her pups are not just old enough to leave home, they are READY to leave for a new home.I really can't express enough gratitude and praise for this program. Certainly, I would recommend any of her pups for families and breeders alike.

I had the opportunity to work with Laurie this year and I am extremely happy to share my experiences.I met Laurie in a breeder group and she offered to mentor me as a breeder. When my dogs were whelping in the middle of the night, she made herself available to help me virtually. One time a puppy got stuck in the birthing canal and she was able to guide me through this very stressful time. This saved me from taking my dog to the pet emergency hospital. She has prior experience working in the medical field and has a lot of knowledge about general health of not only humans but also canines.Before meeting Laurie, I had never done any temperament testing on my previous litters. Laurie taught me a lot about the benefits of doing it in order to ensure a better match between a puppy and its family. Laurie even records evaluation videos of each puppy for her clients. This makes her breeding program even more special as most breeders would not take the time to do this for their clients. Laurie is always willing to go above and beyond because she sincerely wants to do what is in the best interest of her dogs and clients.If you are interested in a Labrador Retriever, I HIGHLY recommend Laurie and Joe's Labs!! They are very responsible breeders with a big heart!Thank you Laurie from the bottom of my heart for all the knowledge you have shared with me about your breeding practices! Because of you, I feel more confident in my puppy evaluation assessments and know how to troubleshoot some puppy health ailments.

I've never gotten a puppy from a breeder that takes as good a care of their dogs as Laurie and Joe's labs. The puppies come nearly potty trained and well socialized and they live in the house with the family. They come with an amazing goody bag for the puppies and Laurie was awesome to work with. We would definitely get another puppy from these breeders thank you guys so much for our new little boy Kingsley ?
