Twilight Retrievers is a professionally operated kennel that specializes in well-bred Labrador Retrievers from domestic and international bloodlines. Our retrievers blend nicely in family settings; they perform to perfection in the show ring and make loyal companions in the field.
Twilight Retrievers is owned and operated by Wm. Hunter Bryant. Hunter has been involved with retrievers in one form or another practically his entire life. Hunter has a strong knowledge of the breed in general, but more importantly, he is adept at matching just the right retriever with the appropriate situation.
Twilight Retrievers is in constant contact with breeders around the world, and has spared no expense in obtaining the best bloodlines possible. Most of our bloodlines come from retrievers that have either been imported into the United States directly, or are bred in other countries and whelped (born) in the US. Our lines originate from countries such as Spain, the Netherlands, Portugal, Sweden, Finland, Holland, Australia and England.
“Bench” or “English” type retrievers (dogs that are bred to compete in conformation shows sanctioned by AKC) have strong champion lines. As a rule, retrievers bred in this category should still maintain an incredible stamina, a strong desire to hunt and natural retrieving instincts. Sportsmen seeking a hunting partner might wish to consider a Twilight Retriever.
Irrespective of the breed you favor, each Twilight Retriever is bred for: Health, Conformation, Soundness, Retrieving Instinct, and Compatibility and is judged accordingly by us. So that the puppy you select will live up to your high expectations, Twilight Retrievers is insistent upon communicating with each perspective family via phone or in person when possible. This will ensure you get a puppy that is best suited for your needs.
For Labrador Retrievers, our health clearances includes: Hips, Elbows, Eyes, and Heart, dependent upon lineage. . Regardless, you will receive a 26 month guarantee against major genetic defects associated with these areas. This extensive guarantee addresses potential health issues that cannot be detected until the animal reaches two years of age.
In addition to offering puppies that are 7-8 weeks of age, Twilight Retrievers also offers “started” puppies / dogs that range in age from 16 weeks to 3 years. Started puppies/dogs will be proficient at walking on a leash, and will understand and obey commands such as Sit, Come, Stay, Heel, Down, and Leave it. Started retrievers will also be crate trained and schooled not to jump on people. Housebreaking will also be well on its way.
