Mercedes is a kind, smart and lovable dog who aims to please! She has been our son Logan’s first 4H dog project the last two years. The first year, when she was only 1 and Logan was 12, they earned a blue ribbon together in Pre-Novice Obedience. The next year, they earned another blue ribbon, the Pre-Novice Obedience Championship, AND the Grand Championship ribbon! She is an excellent family pet, travels really well, and is on the smaller side for Labs (about 55 pounds) which makes her an ideal indoor or outdoor dog.
Mercedes was bred to “Thunders Take Me To Your Leader” (Guide) from Thunder Labradors in Edgerton, WI. We chose Guide for his excellent health certificates and DNA testing that ensures he is clear of the following genetically transmitted problems: EIC, CNM, CY, DM, PRA, HUU, HNPK (see explanations on our FAQ page), and also for his great personality and success as an AKC Junior Hunter – a title he earned at only 9 months old.
