Osborne Family Retrievers

Osborne Family Retrievers, run by Marissa Osborne, raises Labrador retriever puppies in Alger, Ohio, a small community in Hardin County roughly an hour south of Toledo. The program focuses on producing family-oriented Labs with sound temperament, correct conformation, and strong socialization skills.

A notable part of the program is its health testing approach. Breeding dogs are evaluated through the Orthopedic Foundation for Animals, with sires and dams cleared for hips, elbows, patella, heart, and eyes. All breeding parents are also tested and cleared for the most common heritable diseases in the breed.

The selection traits Marissa aims for in breeding stock include trainability, touch tolerance, solid nerve strength, good eye contact, a desire to please, and ease with unfamiliar people — qualities that translate directly into the kind of temperament suited to household life. Families searching for Labrador retriever puppies in Ohio will find a program where genetic health screening is central, rather than optional.
