Puppies are raised in a home environment with unlimited access to a secure fenced yard and early socialization with children, guests and routine household sounds.

Clients often remark on the confident, even-tempered nature of their retrievers as they settle into family life. Early basic obedience and exposure to novel environments form part of their routine before puppies leave for family life.
