We breed field-bred Labrador Retriever puppies for the home and hunt. Our dogs live for the adventure and will work just as hard as you in the swamp, on a hike, or just playing in the backyard.

William is a true professional in every sense and the only trainer I trust with my English Cocker Spaniel. He tailors his approach to each gundog, considering the individual dog's temperament and the owner's functional goals. This dynamic approach enables him to achieve success across multiple breeds and functions, from hardcore waterfowl retrieves to elegant upland flushing. Excellent service, I can't wait for the brand-new facility!

William at Slater kennels helped me look through dozens of dogs and their bloodlines to help me (a novice) to find the right dog to fit how we hunt and what we do! He’s been extremely through in training and sends regular updates about Brix’s progress. Cant recommend them enough!!

My husband and I have a one year old German Shorthaired Pointer (named Toby) who William has boarded several times! Each time William has sent several pictures and videos of Toby having the BEST time. William truly understands the GSP breed and the need for these dogs to get their energy out. William takes Toby to his land and lets him go running with the ATV and swimming in the pond. Toby has always come home with great manners as well. We highly recommend Slater Kennels!

Top Notch operation! this is my fifth lab puppy and by far the best experience I’ve had working with a breeder. Quick to respond. Paperwork was a breeze. My yellow lab male is an absolute stud. Healthy, strong, smart….. came with a health grantee and detailed pedigree. Plus the icing on the cake is this operation is Aggie owned and operated. Buy with absolute confidence!!

Organized, responsive, honest… and highly recommended. My dog Dale just returned from five months of started gundog training, and he’s actually running seasoned dog marks. 👍🏼
