Partner Spotlight: TruDave Gear 🥾

We’re proud to partner with , makers of boots that work as hard as we do. 💪

Their performance boots feel like your favorite pair of tennis shoes but are built for the field, with non-slip soles and top-tier durability.

Whether we’re training dogs, walking fields, or cleaning kennels, these boots hold up and stay comfortable all day.

We highly recommend their quality, and we’re excited to share gear we trust with our community! 🙌

🐾 Litter Announcement: Glen x Teagan 🐾

We’re excited to share that Glen and Teagan were bred on August 20th, and we’re expecting pups around October 23rd! 🎉

These pups will be ready to go home just in time for the holidays, with pick-up day around December 20th. 🎄🐶

This pairing brings together exceptional drive, trainability, and calm off-switch temperaments. These puppies will be ideal for families, hunters, and handlers alike.

Confident dogs aren’t born, they’re raised. 🐾

One of the most important things you can do for your puppy is expose them to new people, places, and experiences early and often (in a safe, positive way).

From different surfaces to new sounds and friendly faces, every exposure builds confidence and prevents fear-based behaviors down the road.

At Berry Creek, we start this process early, so our puppies head to their forever homes ready to explore the world with curiosity, not fear. 💚

Dam Spotlight: Ruby 💚

Don’t let her size fool you, Ruby is a powerhouse in the field. 💥

She’s the most athletic female in our lineup, with endless grit, high drive, and a never-take-a-break attitude that makes her a force to be reckoned with. Her happy-go-lucky nature off the field is just the cherry on top.

Ruby descends from a long line of estate pick-up dogs. The kind that retrieve thousands of birds each year across challenging terrain and weather. That legacy of endurance and determination lives on in her.

They say dynamite comes in small packages… and Ruby proves it every day. 🐾💚

What does a responsible breeder actually do? A lot more than you might think. 🐾

At Berry Creek Labs, our goal isn’t just to produce puppies, it’s to raise healthy, well-adjusted dogs that thrive in both the field and your family.

Here’s what we prioritize behind the scenes:
🧬 Thorough health testing (hips, elbows, eyes, genetics)
👶 Early socialization and hands-on care
📅 Limited, planned litters to ensure quality over quantity
🩺 Routine vet care and clean, safe environments

Being a responsible breeder means putting the dogs (and their future families) first.

📌 Save this if you’re researching breeders or preparing to bring home a puppy!

Health testing isn’t optional, it’s the foundation of everything we do. 🩺🐾

At Berry Creek Labs, every dog in our program is thoroughly screened for orthopedic and genetic conditions that could impact quality of life down the line. That includes:
✔️ OFA-certified hips and elbows
✔️ Eye exams
✔️ Genetic testing for PRA, EIC, CNM, and more

Why does it matter? Because healthy parents produce healthy puppies. And we believe every dog deserves the best possible start.

When you choose a breeder who prioritizes health, you’re not just buying a puppy, you’re investing in years of happy memories, field time, and family companionship. 💛
