MONTANA ENGLISH LABRADORS

THE SHIRAH'S
My love for dogs began when I was very young. My parents bred Cocker Spaniels, and some of my happiest childhood memories come from growing up in a home filled with wagging tails and tiny paws. By twelve years old I was working in a kennel, eager to learn everything I could. Through my teenage years I trained and showed dogs, building a foundation that would shape the next two decades of my life.
​
As I got older, I discovered a passion for bird hunting, and that path led me to my first English Labrador Retriever. I was immediately struck by their intelligence, their calm confidence, and the sheer joy they bring to every task. It did not take long for me to realize that this was the breed I wanted to devote my heart and experience to.
For the last twenty years, dogs have been an integral part of my life and my adventures. Today, my son and I are proud to be a family-based, small private breeder dedicated to raising healthy, even-tempered English Labrador Retrievers. We hunt, hike, ski, swim, and explore the outdoors together, and our dogs are truly part of our family.

We are grateful to share this journey and hope you come to love these remarkable dogs as much as we do!
