MooseHeart's "Furever" Pets
This page will highlight some of MooseHeart's very special family members who were sold to me as pets and stole my hearts long before I knew I wanted to breed! .
These dogs will not be bred but are VERY spoiled and loved beyond measure.

"Phoebe" - RidgeView's Shining Star DN, WC
DOB: February 28, 2015
Breeder: Kristie Battin & Donna Reece / RidgeView Labradors
Phoebe Anne taught me what a true Labrador should be. She is calm as can be in the house but has an unstoppable drive when it comes to swimming and retrieving. Her zest for life is inspiring and her warm, compassionate heart is so incredibly endearing. Here are a few fun facts about my sweet girl:
Favorite sport? DOCK DIVING! Phoebe introduced me to so many wonderful dog sports but this is definitely her favorite. She earned her DN title in the summer of 2017 and I look forward to many more fun times at the pool!
Favorite toy? TENNIS BALLS! Phoebe absolutely LOVES tennis balls - especially when they SQUEAK! I often say that she would (and likely could) retrieve until my arms fell off... I haven't quite tested that theory but I have gotten pretty darn close!
Favorite habit? Any time I sit down for dinner with my extended family, Phoebe likes to join us by making herself nice and comfy on our dining bench. She never whines or begs but if you forget to give her a bite or two, she will likely paw at your arm and demand some lovin! (or some food!)
Favorite resting spot? THE COUCH! Phoebe has claimed the best spot on the sofa. She likes to curl up in the corner and rest her head on the nice, cozy pillows!
Favorite food? Phoebe has never met an ingredient that she doesn't like. She is currently fed whole-prey raw but LOVES to indulge in an occasional hot dog or two...

"Truman" - SHR Neverest Hello My Name Is JH, CGC, WC
DOB: September 14, 2015
Oh, Truman. Where do I even begin?!
Truman is our first male Labrador and he has lived up to EVERY ounce of his name. (My "true man") He is the happiest little guy that I have ever seen and the amount of love that he has in his heart is simply endless. He is the epitome of a "people pleaser" and his sole mission in life is to make us happy. And he certainly does that... Here are a few fun facts about our favorite yellow man!
Favorite Sport? DUCK HUNTING! In the summer of 2017, Truman earned his WC, JH and SHR after only 6 weeks of training. (A HUGE thank you to our dear friend and trainer, Earl Thomas for all that he has done for us and for Truman!) He absolutely LOVES the game and we are so incredibly proud of him. That summer was perhaps my favorite summer of all time... And I think he would say the same!
Favorite Toy? BUMPERS! Truman sees orange bumpers and he says, "GAME ON!" He LOVES retrieving. Especially in the field...
Favorite Habit? Believe it or not, Truman is our first chirping Labrador. You have to see it to believe it... But let me tell you, it NEVER gets old! He loves to grab a toy and "sing" to us whenever he is really excited.
Favorite Resting Spot? Truman loves sleeping RIGHT next to us in bed. He also loves to curl up like a little fox while he's snoozing on the couch. Every once in a while he will rest in his dog bed but he'd much rather be next to us! (And usually I wind up in the dog bed...)
Favorite Food? Hmm... This little guy can actually be kind of picky! He LOVES his whole-prey raw diet but REALLY loves Andy's Frozen Custard. He also goes crazy for "No-Hide Chews" and pig ears!
