If/when we have a started puppy/dog available that is a good fit for your family, you can
1) Purchase the dog with the training he/she has received thus far or,
2) Add more training
Have a trip planned when your 8 week old FLL puppy is ready to come home? Or maybe you just want the puppy to get a great start on obedience, socialization, and crate training? Have your puppy stay with us an extra 6 weeks for Puppy Kindergarten.
Are you SO excited to get your puppy and do the beginning training, but unsure about more obedience later? Or maybe you just want to fine tune some things? Schedule a time for your "Family Loved Lab" to come back for board and train for Level I and/or Level II obedience.
All of our started dogs/puppies are AKC registered, up to date on vaccinations, health checked, and trained with positive reinforcement of praise/toys/treats - dog training clicker and voice markers
They will be sold on a spay/neuter contract (NO breeding). Each one of these dogs will make fantastic family companions with potential for further disciplines as well, a great first step is the Canine Good Citizen test. Price varies based on the dog and training provided, see individual description.

Mack finished Puppy Kindergarten here at FLL and is loving life with his family in Minnesota.
"Thank you. Mack is such a wonderful boy. We are all smitten with his sweet face and gentle disposition. I am certain you had a hard time saying good bye to this guy. Rest assured he was welcomed into a happy busy dog loving home. He will have an active loving life and will be included in all we do. He blended into our family (human and dog) like he has lived here from day 1. I’ve actually never had a dog acclimate so quickly/immediately! Thank you for all your love and training. Attached are a couple pics. Thank you again,
Kristin/Lake/mom, Grace 3, Monica 13, Miranda 15, Dylan 18, Maria 21, Lucy (pup), and River (pup-genetic1/2 bro to Mack)."
Drake finished his Puppy Kindergarten training here at FLL and is loving life in Florida.
"Thank you Larissa.
Drake is wonderful. He’s very mellow and well trained. He sleeps in his crate or stays in his play pan without crying or barking. He walks great with the leash ….. He is just wonderful!!
Rose
Thank you all for this smart and wonderful Pup!"
Kallie is an adorable, loving, very smart girl that enjoys playing with the other dogs and enjoys spending time with people. She finished her Level I training here at FLL and is loving life with her family in Wisconsin.
She has a nice stocky build and loving temperament like her momma. Always excited when you come home and has a very happy tail to show it.
She is currently in training for Level 1 obedience with Larissa, and will be ready to go to her new home February 10th, 2020.
If you are interested in Kallie, please email at FamilyLovedLabs@gmail.com or call at 320-245-0235 and ask to speak with Larissa
Ginger is a fox red female that loves people and LOVES to learn. She finished her training here at FLL in Level I obedience and is loving life with her family in Minnesota.
This girl is smart. Larissa has had a blast training her and feels she would be best in a home that is interested in continuing her training as Ginger loves to learn and loves having a job. She could go any direction: hunting, dock diving, rally, nose-work, etc.
She is a super sweet girl that has a nice off switch. She can be retrieving, working, learning and then as soon as she comes in the house - she relaxes right by your feet.
Ginger is crate trained and house trained to a schedule. She is started on leash training and has basic obedience. She knows commands: come, sit, down, place, touch, stay, spin, kennel, and go potty. Ginger is ready to go to her new home.
River finished Puppy Kindergarten I and II, and Level I and II training and is loving life in South Carolina
"When I lost my third English Lab Rio to cancer, I began to think about breeders to find my next soul mate. Two friends had wonderful puppies from Family Loved Labs in MN. When I spoke to Rosie and Larissa, I knew they would be the perfect breeder for me! I loved their personal interest in placing their pups with the right "parents". I choose to have Larissa train my puppy River for 4 months and it was the best decision I ever made! She gave River a home environment, interaction with people and other dogs and so much personal training based on her personality. River arrived with an accomplished vocabulary of commands and is the most obedient, loving puppy."
