Dear Mr. & Mrs. Frichtl,
I wanted to write to you regarding the puppy I purchased in
October 2008. My family got a yellow lab from you. We named her
Suzy. When we brought her home we were very impressed with the ease
of housebreaking her. I know that you start this process before the
puppies leave. Even knowing this, I was shocked at how well she did.
She had very few accidents and was able to make it through the night
after just a few days. I have had numerous puppies, but the one from
you was by far the easiest to housebreak. One of the reasons we
bought Suzy was for hunting. She loves to retrieve! When we are
training or hunting she never wants to stop. Suzy also spends a lot
of time at the nursing home where I work. The residents there love
her and look forward to her visits. She is always very calm and
patient during her visits. I just wanted to thank you for all of the
hard you put in with your puppies. I look forward to getting another
puppy from you someday! Thank you again for such a wonderful dog.
Sincerely, Carrie Schmidt

From Colby's Family:
Over the
years, Colby has been a healthy and wonderful companion for me and
my wife. We are happy that you continue to breed high-quality Labs
and we will refer other prospective Lab owners to you. In fact, we
learned of your business from the owners of one of your puppies in
late late 1999 or early 2000. Thank you again...

From The Tolson
Family:
When my wife and I
decided to buy a Labrador puppy, we
checked out several breeders. Of the breeders we spoke with,
Darrel and Karen Frichtl were definitely the most
knowledgeable and personable.
During my first
conversation with Darrel, we spent over half an hour talking
on the phone about their puppies. It was easy to tell that
this is a labor of love for the Frichtl’s and that their
sole purpose is raise smart adorable puppies, not to make a
lot of money. While some breeders charge $800 or even $1,000
for a puppy, their price was very reasonable.
We picked out a
fantastic little puppy, named “Copper” and he is a joy to
own. He’s very smart and is adjusting to his new home
quickly. My wife and I could not be happier with our
selection!
If I were to buy
another puppy in the future, my first call would be to
Darrel. I highly recommend a Kountry Kennel’s puppy to
anyone looking for a
Labrador.

From The Langford
Family:
When my family decided that it was time to get
a puppy, the search was on! We knew that we wanted a Yellow
Labrador because Labs are so gentle and patient with children. We
have two daughters who wanted a new “sister”. After we researched
many breeders on the internet and making endless calls, we decided
to visit Kountry Kennel Labs because we liked the friendly greetings
and abundance of information from Darrel and Karen. We were equally
satisfied when we visited to look at the new pups..
Upon our arrival, Darrel greeted us and led us
into the barn where the pups were with their mom. My girls fell in
love at first sight. The pups wore colored collars so we were able
to identify them easily. Darrel and Karen let us sit and watch the
pups move about. After careful thought, we made our choice. We
picked a spunky little pup and named her “Hannah”. Our kids adore
her!
Since we never had a dog before, this was a
very new experience for all of us. The Frichtl’s educated us on
diet, house training, and veterinary visits. We were impressed with
the kindness that they showed all of their dogs.
Today, two years later, “Hannah” is a hunting
enthusiast who loves to play and run around. All of the children
love her on our block and always come over to throw the ball for
her. Since my husband is a hunter, it was important to him that our
dog showed interest in the sport. Hannah loves to hunt and takes it
very seriously.
We made the right decision by doing our
homework and choosing Kountry Kennel Labs. They continue to be
supportive and raise healthy, well-bred pups!

Past customer correspondence:
October 2003: "To anyone interested in
Labrador Retrievers,...Three years ago we nearly gave up the idea of
having a dog in our family. We had been through a couple of
difficult situations with a Golden Retriever and a Black Lab and
even though we knew there were good dogs out there, we wondered if
we could find a kennel that could, with confidence, provide us with
a dog that matched what we were looking for in a dog. We
wanted a Lab that was very trainable, one that would be a great
companion indoors and out, one that was energetic but not
hyperactive, and a dog that was loving and loyal to the whole
family. Kountry Kennel Labs provided us with a Yellow Lab
puppy we named Ruger. Ruger is all that we hoped for and more. First of all, he is a very
focused dog. We began obedience training immediately.
Ruger has been trained for man trailing. He was recruited to
become a narcotics dog, but we could not give him up. He is
VERY obedient, loves to play Frisbee and ball, loves the water and
loves to take the big leaps off the dock. Though he rarely
gets the opportunity, he loves to duck hunt. But most of all,
Ruger loves to be with us whether we are traveling, sitting in the
sunroom, playing on the beach, or just taking a walk. He is
very much a people dog and loves to be involved in all the family
activities. I definitely recommend Kountry Kennel Labs because
I think they can provide the bundle of potentiality in a puppy.
What that puppy becomes in a dog is up to the owner/handler; but, I
think they can provide a dog that can be an achiever in all sorts of
dog life and disciplines." The
