About Us

At Kern Flyway Retrievers, we believe in sharing the rich tradition of waterfowl hunting and the unparalleled companionship of a well-trained Labrador Retriever. Based in Bakersfield, California, we are committed to breeding and raising healthy and affectionate purebred Labradors with a powerful drive to retrieve. Our dogs are specifically bred to be highly trainable, making the perfect family companion and focused and determined in the field.We are thrilled to announce an upcoming litter of chocolate Labs, expected to be born in early June 2025 and ready for their forever homes in August. Sired by Gun Dog Retrievers, known for their impressive bloodlines and hunting pedigrees, our pups trace their lineage to Starlight Kennels - also highly regarded for producing top-tier hunting companions. A $500 deposit secures your place to bring one of these exceptional pups into your home, with deposits fully refundable if we don’t have the perfect fit for you. Let us help you find a loyal, hardworking companion that will be with you for years of hunting adventures.We provide a nurturing environment for our puppies, fully equipped to raise large litters with the highest standards of care. We feed our puppies Purina Pro Plan, supplement with essential vitamins, and ensure they receive the necessary vaccines and handling to start life healthy and strong. All our puppies receive lots of daily interaction to become familiar and comfortable around other animals and people, especially children. This interaction includes early neurological stimulation (ENS), early scent introduction (ESI) and as they age, positive reinforced retrieving and basic obedience commands.Our dogs are registered purebred with the AKC. Complete genetic and health testing is performed on dams and studs prior to breeding to ensure healthy puppies and promote the wellbeing of the Labrador breed. Health screening is OFA certified and includes advanced cardiac, eyes, hips, and elbows. DNA testing includes centronuclear myopathy, degenerative myelopathy, cystinuria, exercise induced collapse, nasal parakeratosis, PRA-PRCD, copper toxicosis, and coat color.
