Testimonies & Pedigrees:
| Rosy and Duke, our wonderful Princess's parents. |
"..............., Roger (Duke and Millie 10/12/06) is a two-year old energetic, smart and handsome boy! He’s a great companion, a
smart guy, and a sweetheart. He’s shiny, tall and quite lean and athletic............... He runs and hikes with us, and swims along
side of the kayaks, loves to go in boats and cars, seems like he’d be an amazing hunter. We don’t hunt, but I can see the
intuition and skill---he’s flushed a ton of birds. I am not competing in agility, but my friend out in Waterloo has the whole
setup in her pole barn, and Roger goes out there a lot and runs courses. He’s really fast for such a big dog, and he loves
it.............. He’s a good traveler, too. We’ve taken him with us on out-of-town visits and while he is exuberant and friendly and
curious, he settles in pretty well for a young guy." Doug & Muriel
Here is Roger's update from his owners at 4 years old:
"I see that you guys continue to gift the world with charming and beautiful dogs! Our guy Roger, from Duke and Millie
(10/12/06) just turned four years old! He is a wonderfully guy. We love him lots! He is still really handsome, as you can see
from the pix attached. He’s very loving and friendly, and just LOVES to work. He still does agility out at my friend Barb’s,
and he is really enthusiastic and athletic with a great work ethic. So much so that while I never planned on competing, we’ve
actually entered an agility trial to show off his looks and skills! He’s a great companion for runs, hikes and all around fun. He
gets along great and is very affectionate toward his little cat sister, Jolene. He LOVES the water, and still goes swimming
along with me when I take the kayak out. Every since the first day we brought him home, one of his favorite things to do is
to romp in tall grass. We take him out very frequently to a marsh/prairie area nearby (picture 5) and he just loves to
explore. He’d be a good hunter if we did hunt (we don’t)—he finds every bird there is to flush. He’s a really good traveler,
too. Can’t say enough about how smart, willing, able, wonderful and handsome he is!" Muriel and Doug

We continuously hear back from owners of pups from all our females. They couldn't be any happier with the
pups from Wood Labradors!!
Thank you to all who sent 2008 Christmas cards with pictures of their gorgeous dogs. Please let me share one
from a family who drove to Wisconsin from Missouri to purchase a pup:
Parents: "We want to thank you so much for Ginger. She has brought so much joy and her personality and charm have been
irresistible." "Ginger is a well-behaved playful puppy with lots of personality and full of love......" Children: "Thank you for
the puppy. She is so fun around the house and she has become part of our family." "Thank you for helping us find a perfect
puppy. She is so fun to play with. I love her. She has already learned to scratch at the door to go potty." Brett, Andrea,
Gracie and Jonas
We are so blessed to meet our Lab loving customers !!!! Candy & Joe

Sassy, female out of Princess and her big sister, Magic. What an adorable pup!!!!
"We've been very anxious to send pictures and give you an update on our "Sassy" girl. Sassy and Magic (our 7-year
old female black lab) are now best buddies. They have adjusted to one another and bring out the best in each
other........ AND - speaking of grown - she is in excess of 30 pounds(she was 15 weeks old as of November 2nd) and
that is over half of what Magic weighs! She has been out pheasant "hunting" twice and has a good teacher in
Magic........We are TOTALLY in love with this dog. She is smart, sociable, loving, good-natured, and quite the
cuddler! ...........She is everything you "advertised" her to be and we are VERY VERY happy to have her as part of our
family! Ray & Kim (Female pup out of Princess.) And, thanks Ray & Kim for referring another customer to us !!!!

"Almost two years ago I visited your house to see Duke before I purchased a puppy out of Tessa and Duke......"
Then the customer wrote this to Tessa's owner:
"I could write a book about Toddy I got from you. He is so gorgeous as you will see in the pictures.. I get the most
compliments on how awesome Toddy looks.. From the time he was a puppy he has been a head turner to now where
people still can't believe how beautiful and muscular he is. In terms of hunting Toddy has a nose like no other.. That
dog can just flat out find birds. He flushed his first bird at age 6 months in the county land and he was all business
since then.
This year was his second season and if there was birds around Toddy found them.
I am now getting him into the hunting competitions of Shoot to Retrieve.. He gets points for the flush, I get points
for the shot and he gets points for the whole retrieve. Now that we will be getting all the retrieving points I am
confident that I will be able to make him into a Shoot to Retrieve champion.. My goal is to get him to the level of
competing in the National Bird Dog Challenge.
I just want to say that Toddy is everything you told me he would be and I really appreciate your honesty and
knowledge as a breeder. I will recommend anyone to get a lab pup from you". (Son of our sire Duke)
