Zoetje’s Labradors
First breeder to breed a Chocolate Labrador
I have been breeding Labradors for almost 21 years now .I started when my son was a baby, while visiting friends he was attacked by a strange dog. My son was severely traumatized by the experience; he underwent three surgical operations and retained a fear of dogs.
Our Vet advised us to get a Labrador to help my son get over his fear of animals. It wasn’t long before we saw an improvement. Labradors love children and as my son grew we could see a bond forming between boy and dog.
Our first Labrador was a chocolate female; Petra bridge Chicory. When she had her first puppies everyone who had seen how she helped my son wanted puppies. After her third litter I decided to start breeding Labradors.
I am now breeding Golden, Chocolate and Black Labs. I also give a vaccination certificate with each puppy.
I love my Labradors, their health, happiness and temperament is of the utmost importance to me. They are like my children and that is what I wish for them to be to every new owner.
Achievements
International recognized Labradors
As a breeder with high standards and the passion needed to successfully breed Labradors that are Internationally recognized, is already a big achievement. The fact that International buyers spend time and money to buy my puppies, is also one of the top achievements any breeder can dream of.
Most recently I had a visit from the marketing people of Sta-Soft England who was looking for Labrador puppies for their new TV advertising campaign. They had only choose 3 breeders from all over the world to supply the puppies for this campaign. Zoetje’s Labradors where one of these 3 chosen breeders, which makes it one of the biggest achievements yet.
To be the first Chocolate Labrador Breeder in South Africa is another big achievement. This make Zoetje Labradors one of the best and finest Labrador breeders in South Africa.
