Patton Premier Labradors breeds AKC-registered English Labradors from OFA health-tested parents, champion bloodlines, home-raised, and ready for your Cabarrus County family. Located in Charlotte, just a short drive away.
Concord and the surrounding Cabarrus County area is one of the fastest-growing communities in North Carolina, and it's home to exactly the kind of families that English Labradors were made for. Households with kids, suburban yards, active weekends, and a desire for a dog that is as beautiful as it is well-behaved.
Patton Premier Labradors is an English Labrador specialist based in Charlotte. We produce a small number of carefully planned litters each year from OFA health-tested parents with documented champion bloodlines. Our dogs are home-raised from birth, whelped in the house, handled daily, and socialized with children and household activity before they ever leave for their new families.
We're located in Charlotte, roughly 20–25 minutes from Concord via I-85, and we welcome families who want to visit, ask questions, and get to know us before placing a reservation.
The Labrador Retriever has been America's most popular dog breed for over 30 years, and for good reason. The English type in particular is prized for its calm, even temperament and classic conformation. Here's what makes them special.
English Labs are famously patient and gentle with kids of all ages. Their lower energy level (compared to field-type Labs) means they're less likely to knock over a toddler and more likely to settle calmly at the end of the day.
Labradors consistently rank in the top tier for trainability. They are food-motivated, eager to please, and quick to learn house manners, basic commands, and crate training, even for first-time dog owners.
At Patton Premier Labradors, every breeding dog is OFA tested for hips, elbows, eyes, and heart before they are bred. We don't cut corners. The health of your puppy starts with the health of its parents.
When you reserve a puppy from us, here's what you can count on.
Hips, elbows, eyes, and heart, all tested by certified specialists on every breeding dog before any litter is planned.
All puppies come with AKC Limited Registration and documented pedigrees. Full breeding rights require written authorization.
Sires and dams are selected from champion lines emphasizing correct English conformation and stable temperament.
Every puppy comes with a written genetic health guarantee covering life-threatening congenital defects diagnosed within the first year.
Our process is straightforward. We keep things personal because we want every puppy to go to the right home.
