Nook on Lyne Labradors is located in 10 beautiful acres in a rural setting in North Cumbria close to the Scottish Borders and is owned by myself Vicky & my dedicated husband Mike.
With a small-scale, family-centered approach we focus on quality over quantity and have just two litters per year allowing us to devote our full attention and resources to each litter. This approach reflects our personal commitment to maintaining the highest possible standards in breeding and ensuring the welfare of our dogs who are a huge part of our family.
Our unwavering dedication to responsible and ethical breeding, high standards, comprehensive health testing and exceptional client engagement and support has earned us many acolades both in the UK and internationally. We have recently been awarded

Nook on Lyne Labradors were the first approved breeders in the UK to team up with VidiVet a Veterinary Medical Practice with a focus on improving health and welfare for pets. This partnership allows us to provide new owners with a funded 12 month subscription to first class veterinary expertise. The endorsement by VidiVet underscores our dedication to animal health and our efforts to promote best practices within the field.
We are members of Responsible Dog Breeders UK, Professional Dog Breeders UK and National Register of Home Breeders where we had to demonstrate we are a small scale responsible domestic Breeder with ethical principles in place of how we work which are in line with the Animal Care College.
With this level of recognition for our high standards and continued collaboration with professionals Nook on Lyne Labradors is set to continue making significant contributions to Labrador breeding. Our focus on quality over quantity, intensive socialisation protocols from 3 days old, puppy profiling and meticulous health testing with Embark in the United States highlights our dedication to producing healthy well adjusted puppies and underscores our commitment to excellence in every aspect of our work.
