Pond Valley Labradors

Pond Valley Labradors is a Labrador retriever breeder in Wauseon, OH, serving northwest Ohio near Toledo. Nick Steusloff has been guiding litters for over a decade, aligning with national breed clubs and following recommended health testing for hips, elbows, and eyes. Puppies live in a family setting on a rural property with daily social interaction, early exposure to sounds and textures, and regular supervised outings.

The breeding program emphasizes stable temperaments and adaptability for family life or field work. Many recent owners note calm dispositions and strong retrieving instincts that fit active households or outdoor adventures. Each puppy is placed after temperament assessment and ongoing support for new owners, including guidance on nutrition, training fundamentals and socialization milestones. The kennel operates with open-door visits to encourage transparency and allow families to observe early growth stages firsthand. Steusloff’s lodge-like barn ensures gentle introduction to kennel life and restful sleep environments that promote healthy development.
