Breeder of Chesapeake Bay Retrievers - Litters

I have a great love of this breed and appreciation of its unique qualities from years of training which formed my dedication to breeding a Chesapeake Bay Retriever true to its hunting heritage while focusing on health, good temperament, and sound structure.

Puppies are hand raised in the home by attentive, calm mothers. Puppies are introduced to birds and water between four and eight weeks of age, when time of year and weather permit. View a short video (7 MB) of two, 5-week old brothers swimming.

All puppies come from OFA, CERF, DNA Tested, and AKC registered parents. Puppies are AKC registered by the breeder, vet checked and given first shots. New owners are sent home with feeding instructions, and training instructions. Shipping available as an extra charge.
