Top-Tier Trained Labrador Retrievers
Located South of Albany, Oregon on a 5,000-acre farm in the heart of the Willamette Valley, our goal is to breed top-quality Labrador Retrievers that are loving family pets and top-notch hunting companions.
Expert Breeding & Training
As a small hobby breeder, our goal is to breed top-quality Labrador Retrievers that are loving family pets as well as top-notch hunting companions. Training our Labradors is a great joy and pleasure. There are multiple ponds and great locations to train throughout the farm. All of our dogs are worked with daily on basic commands, hunting skills, and absolutely loved by our family. Labrador Retrievers are our passion and we hope you enjoy them as much as we do.

“Just wanted to send a quick thank you! Jozy slept the whole way home except when I stopped at the rest areas. I have dog beds in all the main rooms of our house and she has already used them all….she slept on the dog bed next to my bed and other than a 4:30 potty break she was a perfect dog…..my backyard is about 1/2 acre and she is enjoying running up and down the fence with the neighbor’s lab.
She is a perfect addition to our house and appears to be enjoying her new lifestyle of pampered pup….as a hunting dog all I could imagine her doing is stopping to smell daisies if she ran across one….I’ll let her chase the cats in the neighborhood instead!”
“Thanks to both of you for making a young couple very happy. His name is Hank which is perfect. He looks like a Hank. He has them both completely wrapped around his “paw”. And of course, he is the entire center of attention and loving living on a lake and playing in the water. Both Aubrey and Julie walk around like the new proud parents! Doesn’t take long with such an adorable guy like him! Keep breeding and making people happy! I will watch the website and encourage anyone I know to buy from you!”
“We can’t thank Saddle Butter Retrievers enough for the wonderful dog Slim. We met with John and Slim about 3 weeks ago and it was love at first sight with Slim. He is just a beautiful dog we can’t say thank you enough to John for all the hard work in training he has done. Slim can do it all, the first weekend we brought him home we took him to LaPine and he did great on the car ride. He sits right by our side and is very spoiled! He gets to come in the house nightly and just stays with us at all times. He has been swimming just about every weekend and gets nightly walks to the park so we can play fetch. He is so gentle with our daughter it’s like he knows she’s smaller than he is. I am deeply grateful that we were able to meet up with such a wonderful trainer and was able to get such a great dog. He is part of our family and we will always be grateful to John for letting us rehome Slim.”
