Tru-Heart Labradors is an established professional Labrador Retriever breeder situated between Jacksonville and Gainesville, Florida, that proudly produces the finest dual-purpose chocolate, yellow, and black Labrador Retriever puppies available in Florida today! Tru-Heart lines go back to some of the finest kennels in the world. Since 2005, we have practiced selective breeding that produces puppies with wonderful temperaments (the hallmark of this breed) working ability, and good looks. Our puppies have matured to become service dogs, guide dogs, hunting dogs, show dogs, and terrific family pets. Tru-Heart puppies are sold on with Limited AKC registration (Full AKC registration is available on a case-by-case basis for an additional fee), and we take pride in the fastidious, loving, and stimulating environment in which they are raised.
Tru-Heart Labradors was founded nearly 20 years ago out of love for the breed and with the intent of producing the highest-quality Labrador Retriever puppies available in Florida. We have a combined total of 60+ years of experience in raising and training dogs of all breeds, but the Labrador Retriever breed stole our hearts! First and foremost, we breed to strengthen and continue our breeding program. We produce well-rounded Labrador Retrievers to become family and personal companions, but they are also suited for service, obedience, agility, rally, and field work.
Breeding purebred dogs, like the Labrador Retriever, carries great responsibility. As an ethical breeder, we are committed to the wellbeing of both the dam and the puppies. This requires dedication, patience, and knowledge. Tru-Heart Labradors never cuts corners or compromises breeding protocols, so we can provide you with a healthy, happy, and well-socialized puppy:
Our breeding stock is checked annually by a canine reproductive specialist for brucellosis, canine herpes, sperm count/motility and other issues that can impact the health of a litter.
Our exceptional puppies are whelped in our home and socialized to humans from birth, but exposure to germs, parasites, and viruses is carefully restricted.
Our Labs have acres to explore and a large pond for swimming and water-retrieving games.
Tru-Heart Labradors puppies are born in a secluded, professional whelping environment inside our home, and from the moment they enter the world, they have round-the-clock care, attention, and love.
