Pleasant Acres Labs

Pleasant Acres Labs Labrador retrievers in Farmville, VA, serve Central Virginia near Richmond. Crit and Darlene Petersheim have been breeding Labrador retrievers for over 20 years with memberships in the American Kennel Club and a focus on hip and eye health screenings.

Their dogs live in a small home-based setting where daily social interactions and supervised play help shape well-adjusted temperaments. Puppies are introduced to gentle handling, varied environments and basic training routines to support their future roles as family companions or working partners. Many of their Labrador retrievers have gone on to excel in obedience trials and therapy visits at local care facilities.

Operating on a multi-generational farmstead, they blend traditional livestock care with modern canine husbandry practices and standards. Pleasant Acres Labs shares seasonal updates and health tips with new families to reinforce responsible pet ownership and community connections.
