Hidden River Retrievers

Hidden River Retrievers is a Labrador retriever kennel in Angier, NC, in Johnston County and the Research Triangle near Raleigh. The kennel has been raising Labrador retrievers for over a decade, maintains American Kennel Club registration, and screens breeding dogs for common genetic conditions. Puppies grow up underfoot in a family home, enjoying daily socialization with children and other pets before moving to new families. Each litter benefits from early neurological stimulation and a balanced diet chosen for healthy growth.

Mimms Vanmeter believes in nurturing confidence and adaptability, preparing puppies for life as family companions or working dogs. All puppies receive initial veterinary care, including vaccinations and deworming, before joining their new homes. The kennel participates in regional events and supports local rescue organizations, contributing to Labrador retriever welfare. Feedback from veterinarians and families often highlights the puppies’ steady temperament and readiness to thrive in varied lifestyles.
