First and foremost....I would highly recommend CR Labradors. After searching many months for a breeder, I found Carole. From the first moment I spoke with her on the phone and the first meeting we had with her and "MISTY",I knew that she was going to be the one we would be getting our new FAMILY member from. The from the updates before breeding, during pregnancy, days before delivery, the puppy by puppy updates on the day they were born, and the weekly photos and emails on their progress, Carole is a true GEM. She let us (myself, husband and 10 yr old daughter) come make weekly visits sometimes 2x a week. She is very knowledgeable of her breed and helped us make the right pick for our family. Our boy "Mitch" picked our daughter from the get go. And Carole saw that, telling me one day that "that puppy has picked your daughter and only pays attention to her when visitors come to see the pups". She was sooo very right.....he fit into the family from day one and pays very close attention to his environment and what is going on in it. He has the drive and learns in a snap the things taught to him. She breeds the complete package. Working in the pet industry....I see ALOT of health problems in this breed and the hearbreak that families endure due to that. I love that "health" is a major factor in her breedings. She is always happy to make suggestions if asked and they always help and work. We plan on having her do training with him also....cant wait to see the results.
We will be forever clients of hers. Thank you Carole for an AWESOME puppy. We love him to pieces.

This past year dealing with Carole and C.R.Labradors has been both a delight and enlightening.
We lost two of our girls to old age last year, leaving a five year old Rottweiller,named Angel, very depressed. I began the search for a companion for both of us and was fortunate to be led to Carole.
We began communicating and over the next year I became more knowledgable about Labs and we became friends.
When the litter,that I had requested a puppy from,was born - we got pictures from the very first moments of their lives and updates on a regular basis. It was fun watching the pups grow and change.
As I was unable to get in to Missouri to pick my pup,I requested that Carole do it for me.I trusted her judgement and felt comfortable with whatever choice she would make on my behalf. She did an exceptional job!
This week we have our new addition and he is making himself right at home. His name is Hobbes and he is eight weeks old. He is not the least intiminated by Angel's size and is becoming a great friend to her.He is very loving and smart and we are having alot of fun introducing him to the family here in Colorado. So - Thank you,Carole I am very grateful for all the lovingly given information and and help over the past year. It's been quite the experience!

Carole, Thank you for helping us get our 3-year-old handsome (!!!) black lab Hermann ready to be a "big brother/dog" to our baby-to-be. Since he's been home from the month he spent with you, I feel comfortable doing simple things around the house with him next to me: folding laundry (he will now LEAVE IT when he sniffs socks!), taking groceries inside (he will now WAIT at the door!), eating dinner in front of the TV (he will now SIT and STAY!), and even organizing baby shower gifts with him keeping me company on his CLIMB! I love love love spending time with him and not worrying about him eating or getting into everything!
The month that he was with you was very hard - I
missed him so much, but the pictures and updates you'd email me helped me get through the week. And we appreciated you allowing us to come out to your home on weekends to help train US with Hermann, too (I now use a firmer voice when giving commands and don't chit-chat with him AS often!)!
Thank you, Carole! You've done wonders that I just didn't have the patience to do myself!

I recommend, without hesitation, Carol Ramsey for obedience or field training of your pet. I have all the confidence in the world in Carol Ramsey and her training techniques.
It was obvious in the first ten minutes that Carol connected with my dog and intuitively understood her temperament and personality in a way that I thought only I did. In addition, Carol truly loves and respects dogs to the degree that you do. My six year old Betsy is a half English Pointer, half Brittany. Not a lab, but she’s all bird-dog just the same. Since I don’t hunt with my dog all I needed was recall training and Carol got results in one day! Not only that, she helped me better understand my Betsy and provided strategies that have proven effective in enhancing her traits. Carol truly understands that your hunting dog is also your companion and a loving member of your family. In addition, she possesses a natural ability to really connect with dogs and utilize their own personality traits to maximize their potential in the home and the field.
Thank You Carol!

My husband and I made contact with Carol at C.R. Labradors after doing some research on dog trainers in our area. Carol was very easy to reach and her schedule was always flexible. We decided to leave our two year old Chocolate Lab with Carol after visiting her facility. Carol treats each dog as if it is her own. Our dog "Zoey" is our family pet and hunting dog; therefore we wanted her in an environment that made her feel at home. "Zoey" was very timid with little confidence when we left her with Carol. We came to visit "Zoey" every couple of weeks. Every visit we seen a dramatic improvement in "Zoey". She stayed for 60 days. We are very excited to have such a great dog that is ready to work in the field for us. We highly recommend C.R. Labradors we could not be any happier.
Thanks,
Amber and J.R.

Carole and C.R. Labradors is someone who I will use time and time again as well as promote fellow hunters whose dogs need further help in the field. I contacted Carole about waterfowl retrieval and upland bird basic training and she did amazing work with my 16 month old lab. I was the only one who had worked with my pup and I am no dog trainer. I told her what I wanted out of a hunting dog and in only 4 weeks of Carole working with him daily, I believe I have that. My pup is excited when I get out the training bumpers and birds and is going to be ready for the field this fall to harvest waterfowl and upland birds. Carol truly loves what she does, and even gets attached to the animals and treats them as if they are her own pets, not just a job. Great job with Gunner Carole, looking forward to working with you again.

We have had a wonderful experience with getting an adult dog and a puppy. She loves and cares for her dogs as her own children and makes sure that the families they go to will do the same.

We had a fantastic experience with C.R. Labradors. We bought a black English Lab, Easton, from Carole at CR Labradors. Easton is now 4 months old and absolutly wonderful. We had family visits with him before we were able to bring him home. Carole takes time to talk about and answer any questions we had. You can see how much she loves and cares for her dogs and puppies. Our vet has given very high praise for our dog. He is gorgeous and I feel very lucky to have found him and CR Labradors.

Carole,
Max has been hunting with me now since early last fall. Actually- his first expousre to live birds was back when he was closer to 5 months old. This fall, Nov 1 we went to pheasant hunt in KS and he 'did me proud'. We did a second KS trip in mid Nov and have continued to to short hunts here on our farm. His points are classy though short. His retreiving is very strong All in all for a 1 yr old, his progress is excellent. When not hunting, he is my buddy. I'll be in the tractor in a few minutes feeding the cattle--he rides in the cab with me. He and our 11 yr old chocolate, Bailey, sleep in every night--no problem.
Hope all is going well for you & yours....

I am the owner of Wrigley (pics available under Full English Pups tab). I found Carole while searching for breeders over the summer. After coming to her home to meet her and to see her dogs my wife and I knew immediately that Carole was the breeder for us. Her love for her dogs and her knowledge about the breed was more than enough to convince us that we had found a great breeder.
After Wrigley was born, the experience of watching him grow was amazing. We came out to Carole's home about every 2 weeks to see Wrigley. Every time we visited Carole answered questions for us and gave us all the information we needed to know about him.
We now use Carole for boarding Wrigley when we are out of town. We never have to worry about his care while we are gone, we know he is treated like "one of the family" when he is with Carole. Wrigley loves to play with Misty, his sister, when he is staying with Carole
We couldn't be happier with our choice in breeder, or our puppy! Thanks Carole!
