Good morning!

Hey... if you're looking for a place to put your money to good use, Hero Labradors could really use an infusion of funds. In just a few weeks, (late August) we're looking at a $1k vet bill, then delivering (and donating!) these cuties to service dog training programs from NY to FL. The delivery trips average $3k.

In addition to the $2.5k in the costs of making them.So please, anything you can give would be greatly appreciated.

Your donation to the Mobility Dog Resource Group will enable us to continue to share the resources on our website with as many people as possible. We also plan to help fund mobility dog harnesses and specialty veterinary consults for questionable dog x-ray results to a limited number of mobility dog...

Today, June 14, 2025, is a special day for America! We are celebrating Flag Day and the 250th birthday of the U.S. Army.
Flag Day reminds us of what the Stars and Stripes represent: freedom, liberty, and justice.
Celebrating the Army's 250th birthday makes the day even more meaningful this year. We honor the soldiers and their families who have sacrificed so much.
As we raise the flag today, let us remember its meaning and the brave individuals who protect it.

Well... another breeding in the books. Anela x Mattis, and we'll know if puppy and future service dog #200 and more are coming in about a month!


We could also, really use some donations, if you're able.
