About Us
I got my first Labrador as a companion. I soon learned the Labrador was the quintessential mans best friend and most versatile canine imaginable. My love and respect for the breed inspired me to volunteer for local clubs, attend educational seminars and compete in AKC conformation, obedience and Hunt Test Events. More than show dogs or hunting companions my Labradors are a part of my family.

Devonshire is a small kennel located in Oregon State in the USA. I am dedicated to preserving the wonderful English type, temperament and versatility that is the hallmark of the Labrador Retriever. I compete primarily in the AKC conformation ring along with some AKC obedience and Breed Club working certificate hunt tests.
I have a couple of litters a year. I breed English type Labradors and believe that a Labrador can have it "all", good temperament, good health, beauty and type. I breed for the whole dog. All of the dogs I breed have been cleared of hip & elbow dysplasia by the Orthopedic Foundation For Animals and eyes cleared by a canine Ophthalmologist. It is important that my dogs make wonderful family companions so all of the puppies are raised from birth in the home.
Devonshire dogs have gone as family companions, show dogs, Guide Dogs, Therapy Dogs and Canine Companions for Independence dogs. There are Devonshire Champions and show dogs with breeders in the United States, Canada, Germany, England, Holland, Italy, Spain and Australia.
