Bred with care and commitment
What sets Riverina Labradors apart is a strong focus on doing things properly and thoughtfully. Our breeding is carefully planned, with health, temperament, and suitability for family life always coming first. Our dogs are raised in a rural, hands-on environment, where puppies are well socialised and exposed to everyday sights, sounds, and people from an early age.
We have a clear commitment to ethical breeding practices, including appropriate health testing, responsible litter planning, and ongoing support for puppy buyers. We take the time to match puppies with the right homes, rather than focusing on volume or trends.
Above all, Riverina Labradors is built on care, experience, and long-term responsibility—producing Labradors that are calm, loyal companions and a pleasure to live with, while maintaining respect for the breed and the families who welcome these dogs into their homes.

The ideal home for our dogs
Riverina Labradors suit homes that are looking for a well-balanced, family-orientated dog, rather than a high-maintenance or highly strung one.
They are especially well suited to:
- Families with children – their steady, tolerant nature and people-focused temperament means they generally cope well with the noise, movement, and routine of family life.
- Rural or semi-rural homes – having been raised in a country environment, they adapt easily to space, animals, and outdoor living, while still settling well indoors.
- Active but not extreme lifestyles – they enjoy walks, play, swimming, and being involved, but are also content to switch off and relax at home.
- First-time Labrador owners – their trainable, willing temperament makes them forgiving and easy to guide through basic training and routines.
- Companion and lifestyle homes – they thrive on human connection and suit owners wanting a loyal companion to be part of daily life, not just a backyard dog.
Overall, Riverina Labradors are best suited to people who want a calm, affectionate, adaptable dog that integrates smoothly into family life and values connection as much as activity 🐾
