Show-Line Labrador Retriever Puppies in Ohio

Trouvae Labradors is a small, preservation-focused breeder of show-line Labrador Retrievers in Southwest Ohio. Our puppies are bred from health-tested, AKC-registered parents and placed exclusively as family companions.

Our Breeding Program

All puppies are placed as family companions with AKC Limited Registration. We do not place puppies as show prospects or for breeding.

Litters are planned selectively and not on a routine schedule. Each breeding is undertaken to evaluate and develop the next generation.

Pairings are selected for structure, temperament, health clearances, and long-term contribution to the breed.

Raising Our Puppies

Every litter is raised in our home using Early Neurological Stimulation (ENS) and Puppy Culture socialization and training protocols.

These early experiences build confidence, emotional resilience, and strong human engagement—preparing puppies for life as well-adjusted family companions.

What’s Included

Each puppy goes home with:

  • Veterinary examination

  • Age-appropriate vaccinations and deworming

  • AKC Limited Registration

  • Microchipped

  • Written Puppy Contract with Health Agreement

  • Pet insurance activation options through Trupanion or AKC Pet Insurance

  • Lifetime breeder support

Litter Plans

Our next breeding is planned for this winter, with black and chocolate puppies anticipated. Exact timing will depend on when our planned female comes into season, with puppies expected to go home in early 2027.
