Originally bred for retrieving birds during a hunt, the Labrador Retriever is one of America’s favorite dog breeds. These days, while they’re still used as hunting dogs, they’ve also found their place as cuddle buddies and adore every member of the family.
Their popularity makes Labrador Retriever puppies easy to find. If you’re searching for a pedigree Labrador for hunting, showing, or for everyday walks, you can find breeders all over Washington.
Each breeder on this list specializes in the traditional yellow, chocolate, and black Labradors. A few even breed the less common silver color.
