OUR DREAM

"Dogs are our link to paradise.

They don’t know evil or jealousy or discontent.

To sit with a dog on a hillside on a glorious afternoon is to be back in Eden, where doing nothing was not boring - it was peace."

Milan Kundera    

OUR THOUGHTS ABOUT BREEDING

"When you look at a dog's pedigree, it tells you what he OUGHT to be...

When you look at a dog in the ring, it tells you what he SEEMS to be...

When you look at a dog's progeny, it tells you what he IS." 

Patricia Craige Trotter:   

Legendary Breeder, Author, and AKC Judge, "Born to Win, Breed to Succeed"

ABOUT SUNBROOK´S LABRADOR BREEDING

Under the affix Sunbrook, which has been established since 1991, 22 litters were born in the Labrador Club Deutschland e.V., until 2002.

Then as now we love the noble english type Labradors and feel confident about that it is possible to breed one typ of Labrador, that posse the absolute best characteristics as described by the written FCI Breed Standard for Labrador Retrievers Nr. 122, good health, typ, working and gamefinding abilities, temperament as called for by the standard. Temperament, health and type are given equal importance in our breeding programme.

All our dogs remain unforgotten, but DRC-/VDH-Ch. Dolwen Ocean Child, DRC-/DRC-Jgd.CH. BJS '96 CJS(DRC) '96 Starlight Fred of Dolwen, Alkhamhurst it's Smart, Sunbrook's Galahad (WT, Dummy-A Workingtest Dummy-F), Sunbrook's On The Move,  Eastmascalls Roi de Carpenny , both of them prooven studdogs, siring outstanding offspring and Crisbourne's Harvestmoon over Sunbrook, have a special place in my hearts. Even today I am especially proud of dogs like the It.Prd.Ch. Sunbrook's Knight of The Moon, a son of our male, DRC-/DRC-Jgd.CH. BJS '96 CJS(DRC) '96 Starlight Fred of Dolwen. For professional and family reasons the active breeding activity ended in 2002 with the V-litter.

2013 the english boy, Cobra Knight, from Ellesmere, Shropshire UK, came into our live and with him the old passion for the Labrador Retriever was rekindled. Sunbrook's Labrador Retrievers are bred with a high level of responsibility, a wealth of experience from previous years and a lot of passion and love for this wonderful breed. We have an exact idea of the type of Labrador we want to breed. Character, temperament, intelligence, gamefinding abilities and trainability are as important as the health of our dogs. 

It is our aim that Sunbrooks Labradors present themselves just as positively at shows, in every kind of dog sport, at hunting or at working tests as in normal everyday life.

In 2020 we have decided to continue our breeding in the Deutscher Retriever Club e.V. (DRC e.V. ) We are breeding according to the breeding rules of the DRC e.V., which is a member of the VDH (Verband für das Deutsche Hundewesen e.V.) and therefore affiliated to the FCI (Fédération Cynologique Internationale).

The Sunbrook's W-litter after Ch. Sun-Laurie Blowing in the Wind x Irin Angel Valencia had fallen the 23. March 2020 and we are very pleased with the puppies out of this combination. 

All puppies got loving homes, Sunbrook's Welcome All my Love to Gostwyck! now lives in beautiful Ireland. So far the W-litter has exceeded all our hopes and expectations, we now hope that the Ed/HD results will be as good.

On Whitsunday, 23. May 2021, our X-litter fell after Irin Angel Valencia and Cobra Knight. Our Vivi confidently gives birth to 5 males and 5 females. The last bitch, Sunbrook's X-trem Snow White, took too long to give birth. She was born still. Run free lovely girl! You stay 4 ever unforgotten. We expect the puppies from this mating to have a lovely kind temperament, very good working abilities, especially to have a highly sensitive nose! So they are able for any form of scentwork and should be exercised for exemple in search and rescue, scent- and nosework, mantrailing, hunting, medical detection dogs or dogsports like Obedience, Rally-Obedience, Canicross or Crossdogging.

Further we assume that the puppies out of Vivi and Alf will be eager to work, intelligent and easily trainable and a joy for their future family:  they will made lovely family pets!
