Norse Retrievers - labrador breeding & dog training

Mark does not stand by his dogs for life. He would not take back an adult dog of his and could care less where they end up later in life. He only cares about the money and selling the puppies. An ETHICAL breeder will always take a dog back if a family’s circumstances change, no matter what stage of life, and a responsible breeder would not want them to wind up in a shelter.

You brought these dogs into the world, so you should be responsible if one of your buyers needs help. We told Brian we needed to return a dog-a great dog, no fault of her own-and he said it was ‘not his problem and he wasn’t a rescue,’ and refused to help. This was your dog you bred. For a profit, and once money was in hand, he couldn’t care less where these puppies end up.

Go to an ethical breeder who genuinely cares about all of their dogs no matter what. Sadly, your dog that you brought into this world, ended up in a rescue and god knows where now. More...

What a great experience. Mark notified us of an upcoming litter. We waited and he invited us out when the litter came. A very clean kennel and good temperament with all his dogs. 8 weeks later we brought home "Aspen". She is a really smart pup. Already bringing back a ball and dummy. Even had a water retrieve! She also gets along with our older lab as you can see in the pic. We recommend Mark for anyone looking for a great family pet or a hunting companion!! We will be brining her back for training in the fall with Mark. More...

We picked up our puppy from Mark and could not be happier. She will be a family dog but also a hunting companion for my husband. Smart dog and gets along well with our other dog. Mark will be helping us with training too! Strongly recommend if you are looking for a great lab. More...

I recently purchased a pup from Mark Staloch of Norse Retrievers and couldn't be happier with her. At 4 months of age. She is retrieving on land and water. Izzy has plenty of drive and the same time settled right into my home. She is very easy to work with. Thanks, Mark for the great pup. More...
