Settlers Westwind Kennel

Settlers Westwind Kennel was established over 15 years ago with the purchase of our first Lab - Laura's Chocolate Moose.  "Moose" as she was called, started our love affair with the Labrador Retriever breed. Since that first introduction, our love and admiration for this breed has continued to grow as we have learned so much from each and every Lab that has ever entered our lives.  We are forever grateful and much better people for it.

Puppies are born and raised in our home where they are well socialized. A puppy temperament test is conducted on all litters prior to going home in order to better match owners with their pups. We do not sell to pet stores and all pups have a limited registration unless previously approved for hunt, test, obedience, or agility homes. Handled often, pups leave SWWK knowing basic commands. An introduction to birds and water is done when appropriate.

Adult dogs are allowed to spend as much time as possible with us in the home environment where socialization and house manners are the order of the day.  We believe that first of all our dogs are our family and they are treated just that way.

We are members of the Penobscot Hunting Retriever Club and The Guns Up Hunting Retriever Club.
