Old Railroad Labs

Old Railroad Labs is a breeder of Labrador retrievers in Nicholasville, KY, Jessamine County and the Bluegrass region near Lexington. Cindy Eldridge has been working with the breed for more than a decade and follows club guidelines for recommended health screenings of hips, elbows, and eyes. Puppies are raised inside the family home and experience daily socialization, from gentle handling to supervised play in a fenced yard.

The focus on early training and positive reinforcement helps develop balanced temperaments before puppies join their new families. Cindy Eldridge also offers ongoing guidance to families with advice on training and health concerns. Each puppy leaves with health records, lineage certificates, and a packet detailing vaccination schedules, nutrition guidelines, and suggested socialization exercises. The kennel’s hands-on approach ensures each litter grows up with exposure to household sights and sounds and short outings to nearby parks. Feedback from owners often highlights the stable nature and adaptability of Old Railroad Labs’ puppies.
