Clymer Hilltop Kennel

Clymer Hilltop Kennel is a Labrador retriever breeder in Clymer, NY, in Chautauqua County and western New York near Buffalo. Paul Troyer has long focused on Labrador retriever breeding, following recognized breed club guidelines for hip, elbow, and eye health testing and detailed record keeping.

Puppies are born and raised indoors, where daily handling and gradual exposure to household sounds help build confidence before they explore a secure outdoor run for play. Socialization includes supervised interactions with family members, mixed-age dogs, and seasonal sights and sounds, supporting even-tempered adults suited to a range of home environments. Dogs have access to climate-controlled indoor areas and a fenced pasture, with routine exercise that promotes muscle tone and gentle introduction to novel outdoor settings.

Many owners note the calm temperament and clear health records that reflect transparent communication, while detailed feeding plans and training suggestions accompany each litter to ease the transition. Kennel facilities meet state guidelines and reflect a commitment to balanced care from puppyhood into adult life.
