Essayons Gundogs LLC

Essayons Gundogs LLC is a Labrador retriever breeder in Prosper, TX, in North Texas near Dallas.

Its owner, Ron Ragland, has overseen small-scale family breeding for several years and holds membership in national retriever clubs. Each adult dog receives regular health screenings for hips, elbows, and eyes to support robust development.

Puppies are raised inside the home alongside the family, experiencing daily socialization with children and other pets before moving to a spacious secure yard for supervised play. The kennel blends traditional field training principles with a focus on steady temperaments, guiding litters through basic retrieve exercises early on.

Several dogs have been evaluated for therapy work, showing a calm disposition suited to visits at schools or assisted living facilities. Many owners note how quickly their pups settled into family routines, a reflection of the breeder’s emphasis on balanced care and lifelong well-being.
