Goose is the complete package—an exceptionally talented retriever with the temperament and versatility to excel both in the field and at home.
At 70 pounds, Goose is an athletic, well-balanced Labrador with the drive and desire that serious hunters and trainers appreciate.

Whether in the marsh, training field, or upland cover, Goose demonstrates the intelligence, focus, and natural ability that make him a pleasure to handle.
In the duck blind, Goose is quiet, patient, and steady, embodying the qualities every hunter values in a retriever. His strong work ethic is matched by an excellent off-switch, allowing him to seamlessly transition from a hard-working hunting partner to a relaxed and dependable family companion.
Goose is also a Certified Therapy Dog and participates in a local school’s “Read to a Dog” program, where his gentle nature and calm demeanor help children gain confidence and improve their reading skills. His ability to connect with people of all ages speaks to his outstanding temperament and sound mind.
Beyond his accomplishments in the field, Goose is first and foremost a family dog. He is affectionate, trustworthy, and easy to live with, making him the type of Labrador that can truly do it all. From hunt tests and hunting trips to family adventures and community service, Goose consistently demonstrates the versatility, intelligence, and character that define an exceptional Labrador Retriever.
Goose offers the qualities breeders seek and families cherish: trainability, athleticism, drive, intelligence, a stable temperament, and a proven ability to excel in every environment. He is a dog that can work hard all day, then settle comfortably at your feet when the day is done—a true representation of everything a Labrador Retriever should be.
