Rustic Ridge Labradors

Donna is an outstanding breeder. Not only do her dogs come with a plethora of certifications and documentation to support trustworthy and ethical breeding practice; her dogs are incredibly beautiful and well tempered. She works hard to socialize and build confident puppies in the time she has them. It’s evident when you bring your well-rounded pup home and they grow up to be an amazing family dog!! She is professional and passionate. She communicates with you regularly during the early stages of the process and makes herself available once the puppy is home with you. I have already recommended her to my family and friends who are interested in the perfect English lab. Our dog, Vail, who now lives in Denver CO, gets compliments on her physique, color and temperament everywhere we go. Donna and the Rustic Ridge crew are incredible and we will without a doubt get another rustic ridge lab in the future!

On February 14, we received a chocolate lab from Rustic Ridge Labs and he is awesome! Donna made sure that we had all the info that we needed about raising a pup, showed us where his microchip is located and how it can shift, which is normal. Donna also went over the best foods and chew toys for our pup, and reasons why (etc. how some shew toys can cause choking hazards or even how pieces can get lodged in a dog's digestive track.) There is nothing better than being able to purchase a pup from someone who cares as much as they do at Rustic Ridge Labs and I would gladly recommend them to anyone searching for a chocolate lab pup! You will leave there knowing more than you thought possible about labs and loving your new family member! The last picture is Steel this past winter. He is now 5 and still a huge part of our family, along with our other 3 labs from Rustic Ridge.

Donna’s love of the breed and dedication to her breeding is outstanding. She maintained great communication throughout the adoption. I am truly grateful to her for the continued support since we brought our pup home. She answers my many questions and is always quick to respond. My family and I enjoyed visiting with Donna and Joe the day we met the pups. They also did a great job picking out a pup for us. I truly enjoyed that!

Rustic Ridge Labradors is beyond incredible in their overall intake and execution of placing their pure love and joy furry babies!!! Donna’s ability to interview and determine the best chocolatelove for my family was spot on. My Chocolate Lab Boy is perfect character for me and my family. I was so impressed by Donna, that I have referred her to many friends and clients. I am fortunate to have two clients that have off spring of Rustic Ridge Labs, I receive so much love and affection from the pack. Both of my clients couldn’t be happier with their Boys. Thank you Donna for all your support and love throughout the adoption process. Your wonderful!!!

I would give the 20 stars if I could. Simply the best!! We have two Rustic Ridge chocolate labs and they are not only BEAUTIFUL (people stop us when we are out with them and comment on how beautiful they are ALL the time) but they are smart and have the best temperament. Donna and Joe are perfect examples of what dog breeders should be. They are very careful with breeding, with adoption, with follow up, and they love each dog as their own, and the environment that they provide for their dogs is like doggie heaven. Couldn’t find a better breeder in my opinion. We love our dogs, and we love Rustic Ridge!! ❤️
