Testimonials From Owners of Silver Star Kennel
AKC Silver Labrador Retrievers

We Love our little Luna so much!  She is the perfect addition to our family. We just cant believe how smart she is! I think she understand English!!!  She likes everything we like: road trips, camping, boating, fishing, and she's learning how to be Josh's hunting partner.  Luna is SO smart and obedient; she even won 'Best Retriever' in her puppy class (up against 3 other labs!).  Luna was definitely worth the wait. We are so thankful to have Luna!!


                                      


Our Charcoal Silver Lab Scarlett has been a wonderful addition to our family, she is just 10 months old now. She has a very special personality. I have never had a dog nuzzle up to my neck and show so much love as she does. People have commented how calm she was for a pup from the moment we brought her home at 8 weeks old. Scarlett minds well and is a quick learner. She has natural retrieving ability. Scarlett will dive down in the water to retrieve a ball that is sinking. She never gives up, staying under water for 10 seconds at times. Our kids love to entertain friends by showing off Scarlett's stellar performances. Scarlett possesses a natural mothering instinct. When we are in the pool Scarlett will pace around the edge making sure we are all safe. We appreciate all the time and care Silver Star Kennels put into their breeding program. Lance and Kellyn have taught us so much about dogs and we are so blessed to have one of their dogs as part of our family. Our lives have been enriched by Scarlett and know when we are ready for another dog we will be picking up another Silver Lab from Lance and Kellyn. We can't thank you enough “eh.”

Just wanted to give you an update on Roxy. She has grown into the  most beautiful girl. I can't describe how much we adore her. No one could ask for a more loving, obedient, protective animal than Roxy.
Her intelligence level is incredible.  She is a true retriever  in every sense.  We take her in the boat on the weekends to a  secluded dog beach. She swims for 4 hours or more, never going more  than 25 feet from us.  If I swim too far out, she comes to rescue  me.  I grab onto her collar and she swims me back to shore. WOW!  She performs all the standard tricks perfectly.  We are constantly teaching her new things as she learns after only 3 or 4  tries. The true sign on sheer intelligence. Thank you, Lance and Kellyn, for our best friend and protector,  Roxy.

Getting our puppy from Kellyn and Lance made us feel like we were joining their extended family. They have been so helpful in navigating the roads of puppy-hood and have given us terrific advice on multiple occasions. They are very informed about the breed and willing to share what they know long after a family goes home with one of their puppies

Kellyn and Lance are great people and it reflects in their dogs. I can't say enough about Newt...I actually really don't have to because everyone else takes care of that for me.  Newt is very friendly with other dogs, very aggressive when working, and very sweet to my 3 year-old son. Newt's first hunting experiences were very successful.  Newt is now almost a year old and is definitely the biggest kid in school! - Thanks Silver Labs!

                                       


Ava is the second puppy we have purchased from Lance and Kellyn.  Ava has been such a wonderful addition and the perfect companion for our adult silver, Lena.  Their temperament and intelligence has exceeded all my expectations.  Lance and Kellyn share a unique passion for the breed.  This is evident in the quality of dogs they produce and also the level of assistance they provide to individuals interested in silver labs.  Thank you Lance and Kellyn  for all your help,

I wish everyone could have seen how Bo picked Lance. Bo was the first pup Lance picked up to pick out his pup. When he set this 6 week old pup down, he sat by Lance’s wheelchair and would not let any other pups around him. Donna sends me a letter on all the happenings with Bo and Lance from time to time, and I love hearing every one of them. I will never forget the day Lance came to pick a pup out, and to his surprise the pup picked him. 
Lance 
Silver Star Kennel

Let me start by stating that the pup that my son purchased from you has been great for our family. I’ll never forget the day that my son, who’s name is also Lance informed me that he had purchased a dog via the internet and that I would need to take him to Houston to pick the dog up. You see, Lance had recently been injured while home on leave from U S Navy, he was a passenger in a one vehicle accident was ejected and fractured his neck in three places. He was still recovery from the spinal cord injury and due to his paralyzes could not drive. So, I had to drive him to Houston/Montgomery, Tx (3hr. drive, 6hrs. round trip) There Bo was friendly, not afraid of anything and very active. He actually found Lance and kept coming to his wheelchair. He was and still is so adorable. This was awesome to watch because immediately  Bo took to Lance and he is still that way. This was the best thing that our son could have done is to purchase a dog, especially a silver lab. He has been a joy; extremely smart and loves family, friends and all the health care nurses and attendants that come to visit Lance. He loves to play fetch and play in the water, whether it’s in the canal, bay, swimming pool or with the water hose. He knows when to stay out of the way when Lance is eating or doing other personal things. He knows come evening time that its time for him to hop in bed with Lance to chill out and relax. He goes outside to take care of his business and does not like to stay outside very long unless we are outside. He is definitely a housedog. Take care,
Donna

                                 

Jax has been a great addition to our family. He is now 15 months old has the greatest personality. He was so easy to potty train too. He is very intelligent. Kellyn and Lance weren’t kidding when they said that you get what you pay for! He has been great with our 3 year old son as well. He is so gentle with him. Jax is a natural at retrieving. He really loves it whether it is in the water or on land. He is quite the conversation piece as well. We have met so many people while walking him. They are fascinated at how striking and beautiful he is. He truly IS a member of our family. He goes just about everywhere with us. We couldn’t be happier with Jax and would recommend Kellyn and Lance and Silver Star Kennels to anyone and have already done so numerous times.
