Grace came to us here in Wisconsin all the way from Mississippi at just 7.5 weeks old. She was worth the trip and more as she is absolutely stunning and about as smart as they come. Grace is on the smaller side for a Labrador, averaging 53 pounds, with a nice athletic build and toned muscles. Don't let her small size fool you though; she's a powerhouse and able to retrieve anything you ask. She is full speed ahead when outdoors; however, she has a great ‘off switch’ when indoors.
Grace's primary job is my personal service dog, and she does an amazing job at it. However, if you were to ask her what her passion is, Grace would tell you it is using her nose. Her ability to track is amazing and she has recovered several deer that would not have been recovered otherwise.
During the off season, Grace enjoys searching for sheds, scent games, swimming, playing with cats, lounging on the couch with her humans, and watching squirrels & birds out the window.
Grace is also a certified Therapy Dog and we are able to visit local care facilities, bringing joy & cuddles to those who love dogs as much as I do.
Her incredible will to please, combined with her motivation for treats, has made her training very enjoyable. She is one of the most versatile labs I've ever met.
** Grace was spayed and retired from our breeding program in May 2024. Nothing else has changed for Grace as she will remain with our family forever. She looks forward to her role as 'Grandma Grace' to future litters and being the best companion, a girl could ask for.
