Show Den Labradors is a show and perfomance breeder and exhibitor of Labrador Retrievers located in northern Florida. At Show Den we strive to breed the best quality Labradors.  Our goal is to preserve the pure bred Labrador retriever and to breed not only a Labrador that can have the character and quality to compete in the show ring, but also a loving family companion to snuggle with you or just to be there right by your side. We do our best to produce a Labrador that possesses a sound, athletic, well- balanced conformation. Most of all we love the Labrador Retriever and want to stay true to the breed, what it represents, and the job it was originally meant to do.

Our dogs are successful in the conformation show ring, the obedience ring and we also have success with our dogs doing therapy work. Our primary goal in our breeding program is to breed for health, quality and temperament. All of our breeding stock are tested and are OFA certified for hips, elbows, cardiac and eye clearances. We use only the finest pedigrees available in our breeding program with many of our dogs not only having champion bloodlines but also having multiple best in specialty show winners. We focus our breeding program on quality and not quantity. 

We welcome you to stay for a while and take a stroll through our website and look at all of our beautiful Labradors by clicking on the individual pages to learn more about us.

Thank you for visiting Show Den Labradors we appreciate you stopping by. We hope you will drop in often and check on us from time to time.

All health clearances are added to the bottom of each dog's individual page as they are completed. Some health clearances have age requirements and some of the dogs may not be old enough yet.
