Purposeful Pairings for heath & intelligence.
Raised in our house for easy transition to your home.
Capable companions & champs in the field
At CapeWest R&T, we breed British Labradors with strong instincts and calm temperaments. Each dog is selected for intelligence, health, and trainability—so their pups thrive at home and in-field.
Whether you want a mellow companion or steady hunting partner, our pups are easy to live with and eager to work. These “wife-approved gundogs” are just as content by the fire as in a duck blind.
We are now accepting deposit for our 2026 litters!
Breeding with Integrity
Breeding with Integrity
At CapeWest R&T, we breed with intention—not volume. Every pairing is carefully selected to produce puppies with strong health, steady and cooperative temperaments, and the kind of eager-to-please personality that allows the dog to thrive in both family life and the field.
Dogs in our program are certified at two years old and must demonstrate confidence, trainability, and a reliable "off" switch.
We breed dogs that have passed hip and elbow evaluations through OFA or BVA and are carefully paired with partners selected to improve the genetic quality of the breed.
We prioritize:
Health clearances and responsible genetics
Temperament suited for family and field
Desire to work, learn, and please
Steady, easy-to-train personalities
We have two females, Roxy and Natty, who meet our highest standards and are bred no more than once per year—always based on demand. We raise all litters in our home, where puppies are exposed to everyday sounds and routines, begin whistle training with solid food, and are introduced to potty training using Alpha pellet litter boxes that simulate grass.
From day one, we believe the environment matters just as much as genetics. That’s why we raise every puppy to be a calm, well-mannered companion—right from the start.

Rush Graves

Owner of Bones
“Bones is the smartest puppy I’ve ever seen. It’s amazing how well he responds to commands like ‘here,’ ‘sit,’ and ‘stay’—especially how he waits to eat until I say, ‘get it.’"

"He's doing really well! No accidents in the kennel and sleeping all night. He's learning to sit and come when called. And he's starting to learn 'leave it.' He's very smart."
