Welcome to Shadow Run Labradors
Shadow Run is a Labrador Retriever breeder located in Northeastern Ohio. We are a hobby breeder full of unconditional love for our Labradors which roots from our family ran program. You will find that our in-home, warm and loving family style approach to breeding is nothing short of our love, what we pride ourselves in and our upmost joy. Our Labradors are first and foremost a part of our growing family and they all share our home, enjoy lounging on the furniture with us and are snuggled up with us in our bed nightly. We enjoy our Labradors at home, on family trips, outings and in their element from the show ring to our family farm where they have endless land to run, swim and play. Life with the Labradors is truly our heaven on earth. |
ABOUT SHADOW RUN LABRADORSAt Shadow Run we breed for the hallmark Labrador temperament, correct structure, health, type and to improve our existing lineage. Our goal for each litter is to produce and keep an extension of our lines as a possible show prospect, and sure hope for the future of Shadow Run; with selecting puppies that have qualities we sought out to improve with each breeding.
Here at Shadow Run we breed for quality and a few times a year we have available puppies for companion homes. We do hold a short waitlist and our puppies are normally spoken for before they are born. Shadow Run puppies have gone to be impeccable family companions, certified therapy/service dogs and AKC standard, quality show dogs earning their championships. We are proud to be building a strong foundation with our current Labradors and will continue to strive for the breed with every breeding, new generations and Labradors we add to Shadow Run. |
PRIDE IN BREEDINGShadow Run's Labradors meet certain criteria to be a part of the program. Each and every one of our Labradors are DNA health tested and have their OFA Hip, Elbow, Eye and Cardiac clearances to ensure we produce the most genetically sound puppies possible.
All of our Labradors and produced puppies are dilute free. Being a dilute-free breeder and being an advocate for the purebred Labrador Retriever is something we pride ourselves on.
True purebred Labrador Retrievers only come in 3 colors: Black, Chocolate and Yellow (light Cream to dark Fox Red).
At Shadow Run Labradors we primarily focus on Black and Yellow, with a love, passion and main focus to improve the Fox Red shade of Yellow. |
HOW IT ALL BEGAN
On a farm in Doylestown, Ohio is where it all began for us. I had the honor and privilege of growing up with two of the best friends a girl could have had, two black Labrador Retrievers, Jake and Shadow. All of my childhood memories involve them, and I cherish every single one. Jake and Shadow never missed a beat by my side, they were my protectors, my family companions and I will love and cherish them for my lifetime for that and more. Even though they've been gone for quite some time my heart still beats for them, and since the beginning of Shadow Run they have been the forefront of my "Why"
With Jake and Shadow's example of unconditional love and their endless companionship I have been able to give families the gift of something so precious as a loving and healthy family companion, a Shadow Run Labrador Retriever.

Shadow was a toy driven Labrador Retriever and constantly wanted you to throw her ball. It was nonstop! No matter where you were she had a tennis ball, a baseball, any kind of ball she could get her paws on, and she would patiently wait for you to throw it over and over.
When I would throw Shadow's ball I would yell "Run Shadow, run!" ..and that is how "Shadow Run!" inspired Shadow Run Labradors.
