BlackFoot K9

BlackFoot K9 South Carolina dog trainer w/25+ years exp. Certified ABC & AKC CGC evaluator. AKC breeder of Merit We are proud of our small breeding program.
(80)

At BlackFoot Labradors we breed, raise, and train labrador retrievers. We also offer obedience training for all breeds of dogs, and we are proud that the performance records of our personal and client dogs speaks for themselves. We will only breed a few litters in a female’s lifetime. All of our Labrador Retriever Sires and Dams are health tested and we offer a 26 month hip, elbow, and eye guarant

ee on all of our puppies. We also guarantee that no puppy produced at BlackFoot will be EIC or CNM affected (note: carriers of these genes are NOT affected). Our puppies have proven to grow to become talented accomplished athletes in field trials, hunt tests, agility, and obedience. BlackFoot dogs also make wonderful companions for families with active lifestyles and they are terrific hunting dogs. Litter availability: Time-frame, and prices vary according to: our competition schedule, the heat cycles of the females, the availability of stud dogs, health clearances, and titles earned/accomplishments of sires and dams. A deposit: Is required in advance to secure any Blackfoot puppy. If the breeding desired does not "take" or, the sex/color preffered is not produced, the option will be offered to A) choose a different sex/color, B) Have their deposit returned, or C) Apply the deposit to a future litter. Waiting lists for our pups: Are typically established before births (and on most occasions even prior to breedings). Please contact us if you have questions about any of the planned breedings below or, would like to apply to be on our waiting list. Competitive homes (field trial, hunt tests, obedience, agility) will take precedence but loving active family homes are never dis-regarded). While we promote and support the heritage and importance of the purebred dog, we also know the importance of rescue. We usually have one rescue dog in training at a time available for adoption. Please feel free to set up an appointment to come visit!

We have had to make a few plan adjustments & pivot for our planned Fall/Winter breedings ... But, I am a firm believer that all things happen for a reason .. and I am super excited to announce that we will be using "RIP" as our stud dog for Raglan's next litter! ** Breeding to take place around late November when Raglan is due to come in season.

Raglan needs two more passes for her SH title and my hope and plan is to complete that accomplishment this Fall prior to the breeding.

70 lbs of brains and great looks. "Roadie" is a loved family companion who has a temperament that can't be beat. He loves dock diving, hunt test training, and is quiet, clean, and dog friendly. Roadie's siblings are showing promise and achieving high accomplishments in many sport venues including: dock diving, agility, detection, SAR, and hunt tests. We look forward to watching Roadie's career as he continues to train and mature.

45 / 50 lbs of adrenaline and love. Shire is a co-owned 2nd generation BlackFoot dog. She is an intense bird finding machine with a powerful water entry and desire that is unstoppable. Since shire’s “main” owner does not do hunt tests her main sport has been agility. She also has started some obedience work and has her first BN leg. Shire’s main “job” is a full time house dog. This pocket rocket has lovely “off switch” and is exceptionally social and affectionate.

Shire is a full sibling to these two titled dogs as well as other accomplished up and coming young brothers and sisters:

Oh the irony ..

They HATED each other.

Spice and Cappy were born 2 months apart. Cappy came to live with us when she was 5 years old. A lovely gift from Judy Powers for which my gratitude will always overflow. She lived to be 13 years old and she and Spice pretty much *hated* each other for the 8 years they lived here together.

Having a memorial shelf (with Cappy’s ashes and Spice’s photo) makes me smirk a teeny bit. “You better behave yourselves girls” … 🌈

That photo of Spice was from a super happy day .. taken while visiting Virginia Sislane up North on a summer trip I took to run DERBIES with Spice .. so … she was under 2 years of age… the frame was our trophy 🏆 for her 3rd place accomplishment. The memories of that trip feels like it happened yesterday …

While we have many of our past loved dogs cremated .. Spice was laid to rest on a hill overlooking some of her favorite training grounds at one of her happiest places. Thank you Joni Bishop & Chris for your kindness allowing us to bury her on your land … and for all the amazing memories and years of training that made such an impact in Spice’s competitive career.

We are still getting “used to” life without Spice here .. and the grief comes in waves when I least expect it.

Well… this is NOT what I currently look or more importantly, not what I *feel* like.

Rather than reflecting on old photos and feeling discouraged, I have to remember to look at photos and be INSPIRED.

My new hip will (eventually) help me to get back to my “old self” … only … BETTER 💪🏼

Set backs (of all kinds) happen in life. It’s ok. Set backs are just that .. temporary slow downs. A set back is not a complete 🛑 stop. It’s an opportunity to regroup / reassess / change courses / and move … FORWARD.

Since I am recovering from surgery... I am currently unable to drive to my favorite local pet supply Precious Paws Boutique to buy Aldrich's raw food.

It's nice to know that I can keep my best bud on his regular natural and non processed diet... by ordering online with direct shipping from Steve's Real Food to the house!

If you are concerned that feeding raw is intimidating or not "balanced" for your dog you won't be disappointed with Steve's ! Its easy to measure / portion and feed without mess.

The hardest part is behind me. The scary part is over .. And now… the challenging part is beginning. Rehab, rest, ice, stay STILL for periods of time (most difficult for me 🤦🏻‍♀️) be fair to myself and stay positive, productive and healthy.

My husband is my rock.. I am far from the most easy patient 🫣 but together we can do hard things 💪🏼

Parting thought: please try to be kind to people. You can never tell when someone is suffering in silence. Chronic pain is emotionally debilitating at times and it can change a person’s mood, reactions, physical and mental capabilities. Sometimes that one kind word and having a little patience can go a LONG way.
