Three Bears Labradors

Three Bears Labradors raises Labrador retrievers in Madisonville, TN, East Tennessee near Knoxville. Owned by Charles Lockwood, the kennel follows recommended health screening practices for hips, elbows, and eyes and aligns with national breed club guidelines. Each puppy spends its early weeks in a family setting where gentle handling, exposure to household sounds, and supervised play encourage social confidence and ease the transition to new homes.

Adult dogs enjoy daily exercise across 20 acres of fenced fields and indoor living quarters designed for comfort and companionship. The breeder’s approach balances structured training sessions with off-lead time under supervision to nurture the breed’s natural retrieving instincts and friendly temperament. Families often note clear communication before and after adoption, and many puppies grow into well-adjusted companions with a strong foundation in basic manners. Ongoing support includes a comprehensive care guide and check-ins to ensure each dog settles smoothly into its new home.
