Dear Mr. & Mrs. Tomilson, When you first sent me Sasha’s picture via email, I knew that she was the puppy for me. I can’t thank you enough for sending me weekly pictures of her so that I could watch her grow until it was time for me to fly to you from NY to pick her up. She was so good on the plane home, and from the moment she was in my arms, I realized what a special puppy she indeed was. Sasha is our pride and joy and by far the most special dog I have ever known. This I know is because of her wonderful upbringing, nurturing, and special attention she received as a tiny puppy from you. You are such a wonderful person, and it shows through your puppies. Every day when I look at my Sasha, I think of you and can’t believe she is actually mine.
McDreamy has been nothing less than a “dream”…we are so happy with him. He is very mellow and tolerant of our four rambunctious kids. McDreamy has all the classic Labrador characteristics, and we love him! I would definitely recommend anyone to go to Labrador & Golden Champions for an adorable and loving Labrador puppy. Sincerely,
Hi Jerry Tomilson, Sola and Luna are the best dogs that we could have asked for! They are doing great, are a huge hit with all our friends, relatives, and dad's coworkers. You can see how much they've grown, and how much darker their colors have gotten. Thanks for everything! Best regards,

These dogs have been very, very well taken care of. The Vet thinks they are beautiful dogs. I really feel they are quality puppies. Whisper is outstanding, his tail is huge, and he will be shown next year in 4-H. Cashmere has an outstanding personality. Both puppies are very loyal to me. The puppies have never been sick a day in their life. They came to me very healthy. I must add the puppies go to the nursing home and bring much joy to the elderly. They also like riding in the car just to be with me. If you want a true loyal friend.
Mrs. Tomilson, When you first emailed me the pictures of Gryphon, I knew he was ours. He is the sweetest big guy and gets along fantastic with all our other pets. He and our Labrador, Bailey, have a very special friendship. He will actually groom her. He not only is a loving affectionate guy, but he is comical and makes us laugh all the time. He is a wonderful addition to our family and loves to go camping with us. He loves going for rides in the car, and even uses the dash as a sun bed. He is a very healthy boy and has never been sick since we’ve had him. We can tell that you love your dogs and spend a lot of time with them. He is the flame Labrador I always dreamed of owning and so much more. Thank you so much for our big guy, and for all of your help and support since he’s come home with us. You and your puppies are all gems.
I owned dogs all my life and my first Labrador puppy was purchased from Labrador & Golden Champions in the summer of 2007. I did a lot of research before deciding on a Labrador. I chose Labrador & Golden Champions because Sue was very personable, and the puppies and dogs are in a wonderful loving home environment. The markings and colors surpassed any others I saw on other websites. My Labrador, Buddy, is the best dog I have ever owned. His fur truly feels soft like a rabbit and barely sheds. He is loving and playful, waiting by the door for me when I come home. He wags his tail often, and loves to play with my cats. He is very inquisitive and smart. I recommend Labrador & Golden Champions to anyone searching to purchase a unique puppy that will bring you years of companionship and joy.
If you value your privacy and want your dog to keep its distance, don't get one of these dogs! I have owned several different breeds during my lifetime, and these are the most remarkably loving and attentive dogs that I have ever been around! They will follow you from room to room and will want to be involved in everything you do… even if it's just laying around watching TV! If you want a loving, one-of-a-kind dog that will capture your heart and are looking for a great breeder, my wife and I could not be happier with Labrador & Golden Champions! Sue, thank you so much for your help in adding our latest addition to the family, Winston, our blue point male Labrador from Sasha & Kayo. He is everything we could have hoped for! Our two girls, Sophie and Tasha, have welcomed him into our home and give him constant attention. I doubt we would have given serious consideration to a 3rd dog if we didn't have access to you as a breeder. All your puppies are exceptionally sweet, friendly, healthy, and we can't imagine life without these special Labrador dogs to share it with us! Thank you for all of your time and continued support!
When I first brought Max home, he was a little shy. I already had my other dog for 4 years prior to him, and he is a very big and scary dog. At first, I tried to separate them, but it was a hassle, and after about a day, I decided to just let them meet to see what would happen. It wasn’t long after I introduced them that they were getting along like old friends! The thing I really like about Max is that he’s so very docile. You can pick him up and hold him, and he never complains. He’s also very playful and energetic and will play (show off) for hours with the right toy. I’m never lonely when doing the housework because he follows me everywhere, at all times! I suppose my only advice for future owners of Sue’s Labrador puppies is to watch your feet because they really like to help you do whatever you're doing! Since I’ve had such good luck with this dog, I’m considering another one soon. It’s a bit of a drive from Ames, Iowa, but given the good health and good nature of Labrador & Golden Champions, it’s definitely worth the trip. Update: As of May 2008, Kari made the trip out and has added Coco Chanel to her Labrador family!
Dear Sue,
I wanted to let you know that Violet has been a perfect addition to our family. My children adore her. She has been the best Christmas present. Her temperament is amazing – she’s so sweet, adaptable, and playful. She immediately dominated our 70lb German Wirehair Pointer. She even lets Violet eat his food. She gets carried around all day by my 3 year old, Flora. We joke that Violet will forget how to walk. We are continually impressed by her good nature and disposition. This is our first ragdoll, but I’m sure it won’t be our last.Thank you so much for all your terrific help and the wonderful pictures. You made the adoption process a real pleasure. Our family couldn’t be happier with the kitten or the process.

This is our first Labrador, but I’m sure it won’t be our last. Thank you so much for all your terrific help and the wonderful pictures. You made the adoption process a real pleasure. Our family couldn’t be happier with the puppy or the process.
We had a really hard time finding a pet that worked for our family. We live in a small house right on the highway. We've tried dogs, but it was difficult to find a small enough dog who still had a good disposition. We had an outside dog only to have it wiggle its way out of the fence and get hit by a car. Same with our outside cat. Inside cats weren't an option because of our allergies. Then our daughter showed me an article on Labrador puppies. They seemed to have all the characteristics we were looking for, plus would work in our small house. But finding one was a different story. Finally, we found Sue on the internet. She made me wait for our new family member bearable with adorable pictures and updates every week. Max has been the best pet we have ever had. Family and friends come over to visit and they can't get enough of him! We will never buy a Labrador from anyone else because we know how much Sue cares for each and every dog and how much she wants to make this an enjoyable experience for both you and your puppy. She was there to answer all our questions. It made a big difference having that kind of support. I will always recommend Labradors and only from Tomilson at Labrador & Golden Champions.
I purchased 2 puppies from Labrador & Golden Champions about a year and a half ago and absolutely adore them! In fact, I adored them so much that I had to get a 3rd about 8 months ago. My boys have grown up to be such great dogs and have wonderful personalities. My oldest, Max, by only a week, is so intuitive to my emotions and listens like a little puppy, not to mention he is so beautiful to look at. All of my dogs get along great and love to play with my two little ferrets; they are all pals. Max, my golden retriever, Duke, my Labrador, and Rocky, my labradoodle, are all so spoiled it is ridiculous. It is toys galore at our home and they are so fun to watch at play with each other and with the toys. They will definitely make you laugh and it is true that they follow you from room to room. Max and Rocky especially have to know where I am at every moment I am home with them. Max loves to give hugs and kisses and Rocky just loves to cuddle no matter where you're at or what you're doing. Not only are my dogs phenomenal, but Sue is friendly, helpful, and a pleasure to do business with as well. She truly cares about her puppies as a breeder, which is why I have only purchased mine through her. When you are looking for quality, it is important to know that you’re purchasing from someone who is truly passionate about what they do, and she most definitely is.
Mrs. Tomilson, Thank you so much for suggesting I consider the chocolate tortie puppy (our Kailani) when I was looking at puppies. She is sweet and so pretty and very playful and perfect for our family. My sons and husband love her too. She has been so busy since we got home and is really having fun with all her new puppy toys. Today she is interacting with the two older dogs we already had. She wanted to meet them the second day and reached out her paw under the gate as if to say hello but they weren’t quite ready to meet her. However, today they spent some time together during the day and did very well. Kailani is so happy and a joy to have around! I would definitely recommend you to anyone who loves dogs and wants a Labrador or Golden Retriever! Thank you again for everything!
Just wanted to update you on my babies.. They are absolutely the sweetest puppies I've ever seen…everyone loves them. I went to Florida a couple of weeks ago, and they stayed with a friend of mine for 5 days…she didn't want to give them back! They are very mellow dogs, yet they still play like puppies…they are so much fun to watch. I want to thank you again for such a wonderful addition to my household. All I know is that they are both beautiful, gentle puppies, with unique personalities. I never thought I would have two dogs at the same time and now, truthfully, had I known what wonderful temperaments they have, I might have gotten three!
Hi Mrs. Tomilson, I just wanted to give you a 1 year update on Max and share with you some adorable photos. Max is doing absolutely wonderful, bringing joy to our family every day! Everyone loves him, and the first thing that seems to come out of the mouths of visiting friends and family is, “Where’s Max?” Max and our golden retriever, Lilly, have become best friends, and I’m always finding them cuddling together. When he’s not cuddling with the other pets and people in the house, I seem to find him in a bowl, a basket, a sink, or some other random object. It’s the cutest thing! He truly is a blessing, and I am so fortunate to have found your website and been introduced to my little baby almost a year ago. It was definitely worth the trip out there to get him. I look forward to the day when I am able to add another Labrador to our family and will certainly be coming to you! And you can believe anyone I come across looking for the perfect pet will be referred to you. Thank you again for my incredible angel!
Meet Buddy, loving, cuddly, affectionate, and full of life. When he's not asleep on my lap, shoulders, or chest, he is making me laugh; and by the way, he is not for sale! I recently lost "my Bailey," my 7-year-old Birman, however, still have Bailey’s sister Molly. I wanted to get another kitty for Molly, as she and Bailey were sisters and very close. Molly had lost her spunk, seemed more reserved, and wasn’t playing much anymore. I began looking for another Birman when my neighbor mentioned the Ragdoll breed. One thing led to another, and I found Jerry and Labrador & Golden Champions. I had never brought home an animal online, and at first was a little anxious about doing so. She put my mind to ease in a matter of hours. Sue was (and is) quick to answer emails and any questions you may have, explaining the process of purchasing one of her babies. I reserved one of Crumpet’s puppies, sight unseen. I wanted a female, golden retriever, and preferably with a white patch on her chest. I kept talking to Bailey, telling Bailey that I was relying on her to help me get just the right new sister for Molly; personality being most important. When Crumpet did deliver, there was one female, a golden retriever, and she had a white patch on her chest, Bailey had come through for me. Every week, Sue sent a photo of Buddy and an update on his development. I was amazed at how much he changed from week to week; getting cuter and cuter. The entire process of waiting was exciting and fun. I could hardly wait for the weekly photo. And as time got closer for pick-up, I felt like a five-year-old waiting for Christmas. Friends and neighbors asked, “You LIVE in Virginia, you can’t find anyone closer than Wisconsin?” I said, “No, I’ve never met Sue but am so impressed with care and follow-through.”Jerry is an expert at answering your questions, addressing your concerns, and responding after you’ve brought your new kitty home. The exchange at the airport was easy and everything Sue said it would be. Buddy continues to make me laugh, and Molly is happy, playful, and full of life again. You can trust Sue, her word, and the quality of her cats, unconditionally.
After much research, I decided a Labrador puppy would be perfect for me. I stumbled upon Sue’s website, Labrador & Golden Champions, and knew I was going to work with Sue at getting a Labrador puppy from her kennel. Sue is an amazing breeder, businesswoman, and person. She is very friendly and approachable. She cares so much about her dogs. Some breeders just mass produce dogs with minimal care, but Sue pampers and spoils the puppies the second they are born. Each week, Sue sends an update and photo of your puppy. It’s so wonderful when you are waiting anxiously for your little one to come home. After Max, my golden retriever, came home, I was amazed at how true the “typical” Labrador personality really is. Max is super sweet, he follows us from room to room and waits patiently in the bathroom for me to come out of the shower. After my mom met Max, she knew she had to have a Labrador from Sue. Soon after, Buddy, her Labrador, came home. Not long after that, Rocky, my labradoodle, came home, to keep Max company. Each puppy is very healthy and sweet, with his own personality. It’s so much fun to watch the three puppies play together. I would highly recommend Sue as your first choice Labrador breeder. My mom and I are so satisfied with our wonderful puppies. We’d just like to thank Sue for an honest, care-free, easy business experience, and for our beautiful, fun, adorable Labrador puppies!
Mrs. Tomilson, The day we decided to bring home brother and sister Labrador puppies, we were and have been pleasantly surprised by the deep love and joy that Max and Bella have brought into our lives. They enjoy each other’s companionship, so we are thankful to have two Labrador puppies. It didn’t take them very long to warm up to our three cats. Bella has staked claim on Buddy’s bed and can be found snuggling alongside any one of our three cats. We are glad that we purchased our puppies from Sue because she is a fountain of information and happily answers our many questions. Most important reasons that we went with Labrador & Golden Champions for our puppies, Sue litter box trained the puppies, taught them their names, and spent time socializing them! All of these things were so important because when we brought our puppies home, they were ready to be our family pets. Best regards,
Hi Mr. Tomilson, Our Labrador puppies are such a huge part of our lives; we have fallen in love with them. Max is growing fast and is probably double the size of his best pal Buddy, who is our little prince and so cuddly. Max is a lover and always waiting to be loved! Both are tremendously affectionate, friendly, loving, and cuddly. They are inseparable from one another and from us. They follow us around the house, wagging their tails constantly, always wanting to be next to us or on our lap. It’s been amazing! The kids LOVE them, especially my youngest, Mateo, who seems to carry them around most of the day. Thank you, Mr. Tomilson, for giving them such an amazing start in life. You are the reason they are so people-oriented, and we are grateful. We love them with all our hearts and could not have dreamt of getting better puppies. They are healthy and thriving, gorgeous and affectionate. We get positive comments about how wonderful they are wherever we go. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for this wonderful experience!
Mrs. Tomilson, Nedra has been a wonderful addition to our family! She is so loving and patient with our little girls and loves to spend time with all of us. We are constantly receiving compliments on how pretty she is and people asking what kind of dog she is. She has such a great personality and loves to curl up next to us on the couch. We loved receiving photos each week to watch her grow. Our daughters looked forward to it each and every Sunday afternoon. We each felt like we knew her before we arrived. When we picked her up, we drove to Minneapolis from Omaha and made a nice trip out of it. We spent time at the Mall of America, and the next morning came out to pick up Nedra. You were very helpful in making sure we understood the dos and don’ts of dog ownership as it was our first puppy. You were always willing to answer any questions or concerns that we had. It shows that you really and truly do care about your dogs and the puppies. We cannot thank you enough, and we look forward to one day buying another puppy from Labrador & Golden Champions. We all love our puppy and simply can’t get enough of her. Thanks again!
We had been without any pets for many years when I started researching Labrador puppies. I found Sue, and I’m so grateful I did! Our first Labrador was a little chocolate girl. When we made the 3-hour trip to bring her home, she seemed to know she was ours immediately. She stretched out on my lap and slept and purred all the way home. She captured our hearts, and it wasn’t very long before we knew we needed another one to keep our Moka company. I contacted Sue again and soon made another trip for our little black boy, Buddy. These beautiful little puppies were comfortable in their new home immediately. They are the friendliest, funniest, softest, most loving pets, and they were like this from the second we picked them up, thanks to Sue. When you drive away with your precious little cargo, that’s not the end of the relationship with Sue. She is always there to answer any questions, help you out, and she knows everything there is to know about Labradors. Do not hesitate to get a Labrador from Sue, but beware, one will not be enough!
Mrs. Tomilson is one of the most amazing characters I have had the pleasure to meet. Her experience in animals is second to none, and her continued help and advice are a godsend. Our delightful Daisy, our little girl, is amazing and has completed our family. Anyone who has the chance to have a furry baby from Sylvia will be blessed. So worth the wait. Thank you, Mrs. Tomilson.
Mrs. Tomilson is absolutely amazing, a caring lady who is very knowledgeable, loving, supportive, and kind towards her puppies and their new "parents". We fell in love with our little boy Max, and Mrs. Tomilson kept us up to date with his progress with regular video updates and messages. We couldn't wait to get him home, and our household now feels complete, as Max is cheeky, loving, and playful. We are really grateful to Sylvia for all her help and support.
Having met Mrs. Tomilson a few months ago while deciding on when best to get another Labrador, I have enjoyed getting to know her and her precious dogs. She loves every single one of them, and what she doesn't know about Labradors isn't worth knowing. Can't wait to get our new additions (yes, we're having two), and know that Mrs. Tomilson will always be there if we need help or advice.
We are so happy with our new puppy from Labrador & Golden Champions. He is a very healthy, confident, and affectionate little dog. This is no surprise as Mrs. Tomilson puts all her dogs' well-being first. Mrs. Tomilson is very knowledgeable on correctly breeding and caring for her animals. Our puppy also came with a microchip, vaccinations, pedigree certificate, and insurance. In summary, if you're looking for a happy, affectionate dog that loves human company, then a Labrador or Golden Retriever is the one. If you do decide on one of these breeds, then definitely make contact with Mrs. Tomilson at Labrador & Golden Champions.
Our puppy arrived a week ago. He came confident, gentle, curious, and loving. He immediately settled into his new home, using his designated area, eating well, and grooming himself. He loves attention, brings us joy with his antics, and is already showing signs of independence. Mrs. Tomilson is an exceptional breeder whom you can trust wholeheartedly. The care and affection she pours into her puppies are unmatched. They are not just pets but cherished members of the family, and Mrs. Tomilson is always available for guidance and support as they grow. If you're seeking a truly special puppy, Mrs. Tomilson is the best breeder you'll find.
"I’ve just received my beautiful Labrador puppy from Labrador & Golden Champions, and he is everything we’ve hoped for and more. He is so adorable, gentle, and cute, and I can tell he’s been raised with much love and attention. He also came with all his details, microchip, full vaccinations, and a health check certificate, which I think is extremely important when you’re getting a puppy. With Labrador & Golden Champions, you know you're getting excellent quality for an acceptable price, unlike some other breeders. You can trust Sylvia to provide you with the very best."
Mrs. Tomilson is a wonderful breeder, and it shows how much she loves her puppies and the dogs she raises. They are all absolutely gorgeous dogs, with beautiful coats and friendly temperaments. They are raised in the best conditions, and she sends pictures and videos every step of the way so we can see our furry friends grow up before they get home. She is extremely knowledgeable and helpful if ever in doubt about anything. I have complete trust in Mrs. Tomilson and the way she takes care of her dogs and would recommend her to anyone wanting to purchase a Labrador or Golden Retriever puppy.
That sounds like an exciting journey ahead! It's wonderful to hear that Mrs. Jerry Tomilson has been so supportive and helpful in preparing you for the arrival of your new fur baby. The puppy welcome pack sounds like a thoughtful touch, providing valuable information to ensure your kitten receives the best care possible. April will be here before you know it, and I'm sure you're eagerly anticipating the day when you can finally bring your new addition home. Wishing you all the best as you prepare for this exciting new chapter with my labrador!
We recently welcomed two of Mrs. Tomilson's gorgeous dogs into our home, and feel very privileged to have them as part of the family! Bella and Max are young males recently retired from breeding: both incredibly handsome and wonderfully affectionate characters. It has been a pleasure to meet Sylvia, who gave us a fantastic introduction to looking after Labradors (our first) and their particular likes and dislikes. Nothing could have been too much trouble, in fact, and it's very clear that she cares enormously about all of her animals. I can't speak too highly of her.
"Mrs. Tomilson is an exceptional breeder who truly cares about her puppies and their well-being. We recently adopted a golden retriever puppy from her, and the entire experience exceeded our expectations. From the moment we reached out to inquire about the litter to the day we brought our puppy home, Mrs. Tomilson was incredibly helpful and supportive. She provided regular updates, photos, and videos of the puppies' progress, allowing us to feel connected and involved throughout the process. When we finally met our puppy, it was clear that he had been raised with love and care. He is healthy, happy, and has quickly become a cherished member of our family. We are grateful to Mrs. Tomilson for her dedication to her dogs and for helping us find the perfect addition to our home."
"Words cannot express how grateful we are to Mrs. Tomilson for bringing our Labrador puppy into our lives. From the moment we contacted her, she exhibited a level of professionalism and compassion that reassured us we were making the right choice. Throughout the entire process, Mrs. Tomilson kept us informed and involved, providing updates and guidance every step of the way. When we finally welcomed our puppy home, it was evident that he had been raised with the utmost care and attention to detail. He is not just a pet but a beloved member of our family, thanks to Mrs. Tomilson's dedication and expertise. We highly recommend her to anyone seeking a furry companion."
