As part of our way of doing things here at Loblolly, we always ask adopting families to agree to contact us should life circumstances bring about a change that means their Labrador needs a different placement, and they do not have a support network that can provide such. Thus, we have now with us an eight year old female named Sara who is in need of a new family home. Sara's former caregiver has passed on, and while we were glad to welcome her here for as long as need be, it would be nice for Sara to have a new family where she's the center of attention again. Sara is spry; she is accustomed to the run of six acres adjacent to 200, chasing after the Gator and foraying in the creek. At the same time, she is a mature soul, so a day of meandering around means nice easy evenings laying on the floor. Sara gets along fine with dogs her size who carry themselves with some dignity and she seems to appreciate all humans, although we do not think that she's been around very small children. Sara is crate, leash, and house trained. She is not destructive but she does prefer couches for slumbering as versus hard floors. She is on heartworm and flea prevention. Sara's placement fee is $500. We ask that anyone inquiring about her provide details of their circumstances regarding children, other dogs, and access to dog exercise space: LoblollyLabradors@gmail.com Thanks so much for visiting us, and take care.

Everyone... Tobin has gone to her new family now. Thanks so much for your inquiries. Please continue to check back with us for updates on availability. Best regards! Eve
Hello, and thank you for your interest in Loblolly Labradors. We are currently offering for adoption a 22 month old, light red female by the name of Tobin (all the pups in her litter were named to celebrate the winning 2019 USA Women's World Cup team :) She honors Forward Tobin Heath. Fittingly, Tobin is a very athletic and intelligent dog, a loving and big-hearted soul, and an inveterate retriever. We are seeking a family that can invite her into their home as a lifelong companion and promise to throw the ball for her faithfully. This last point is non-negotiable according to Tobin. A few details about Tobin:
Thanks again for your time and consideration. The best of health to you and your family, Eve and Christopher Farrell Middle TN! Everyone, thank you for your inquiries. Sturgil has joined his new family. Please contact us directly if you are looking for a more mature Lab, as occasionally we do have one for adoption. Eve Hello, thank you for visiting and allow us to introduce Loblolly's Blackslider's Wine, or our boy "Sturgil," as we affectionately call him (we do live near Nashville after all ;) We are proud yet heart heavy to offer him for he is a beautiful and loved member of our family, and although only one year old, well on his way to becoming a well appointed adult. Finding the balance of offering each Lab at our home quality care and attention, however, versus making the necessary logistical maneuvers for the continuation of the Loblolly line sometimes means that we have to make hard decisions we would rather not... given all the time and money and space in the world-- Sturgil would stay right here at Loblolly. But, we do not have any of those, and Sturgil deserves more individual attention than we can give him right now. As a one year old he is still very much an adolescent and highly adaptable to rhythms of a new forever home. Think of him as essentially still a child. Things you should know about Sturgil:
We are glad to answer any questions that you might have about Sturgil. Please contact us at LoblollyLabradors@gmail.com Thanks for visiting us, and take care out there. Eve & Christopher Farrell Hello, and thank you for visiting Loblolly.
We are excited to announce a litter of light yellow puppies our of Neko and Donaghy due late February. This litter represents the third and final iteration of this pairing which has given us two fine sets of Labradors, one son of which is pictured above at 8 weeks old from 3 years ago. For details regarding adoption of a Loblolly pup from this or future litters, please email us at LoblollyLabradors@gmail.com We ask that before you email us you spend some time on our website to become familiar with our dogs, our heritage, and our stewardship of these lovely beings. Thank you again for your interest in our Labradors! Best wishes to you and your family, Eve and Christopher Farrell Middle Tennessee! Hello, thank you for visiting our website. We appreciate that you've gotten this far in your browsing and hope that you've taken a moment to visit some of the other pages on our site which detail our legacy, population, standards, and intentions. We are glad to answer any questions that you have and appreciate queries that include a bit of information regarding your own hopes, wishes, and needs for your new Labrador pup. We are proud to offer a black male for adoption out of a three week old litter of Bellamy x Tonto (pictures of dam and sire in slide show, as well as more of Tonto here). Both parents are beautiful and intelligent English Labradors with generations of the same populating their respective pedigrees; both are cleared through OFA for hip and elbow health and have been genetically screened and cleared for EIC and PRA. We offer this pup with a two year written guarantee on hip, elbow, and eye health. For more details regarding this litter and our adoption process, please email us at LoblollyLabradors@gmail.com Thank you again for your interest in our Labradors and all the very best of this holiday season to you and your loved ones. Eve & Chris Farrell Middle Tennessee! Everyone, we hope that you and your family are well. Thanks so much for taking the time to explore our website.
We are currently waiting on signs of pregnancy from a lovely young chocolate girl named Maggie bred to Tonto. With luck, we'll have black pups available late February 2021. If a classic black Lab is what you had in mind, please contact us at LoblollyLabradors@gmail.com for details about our adoption process and updates on this and potential future litters. Take care, America, and Happy Thanksgiving. Eve & Christopher Farrell Tennessee! Hello, everyone. We send you our very best wishes from TN.
If mother nature is generous, we will have puppies available for adoption mid-autumn. At the moment, we can not give specific details on availability, but black and yellow puppies are planned. To be added to our contact list for updates, please use the form on the "Contact" page or email LoblollyLabradors@gmail.com. World, we are hopeful for pups in August. Thanks so much to everyone who has contacted us. Please check back late July for an update on availability. Enjoy your summer and take care, everyone.
Eve & Christopher Farrell Tennessee! Hello, everyone.
We hope that you are doing okay out there, and that despite the anxiety and hardship of the current crisis, your family is safe and well and feeling optimistic. We are lucky enough to be holed up out in the countryside of TN with a bunch of affable Labs, so we're doing okay, too, and thanks so much to the many of you who have contacted us with well wishes and kind thoughts. (We put up a lot of dog food, but did stop short of hoarding... although figuring out that line took some circumspection.) We are hopeful for a litter in May out of Neko and Donaghy: the pups will be all yellows, most likely on the lighter end of the spectrum. While we do have some reservations already, we believe we will have availability, so please contact us for more details at LoblollyLabradors@gmail.com if adopting a puppy in July sounds like a good plan for your family. Please do peruse our website to understand our history, practices, and intentions. We are committed to the welfare of our individual dogs and the breed as a whole, so our first priority is finding family placements for our Labs that are equally committed to lifelong, conscientious care. We appreciate when people share their history and intentions with us in their inquiries, as adopting a puppy is a matter of mutual trust. Take care, America. Best regards, Eve & Christopher Farrell Middle TN! Hello, thanks so much for your interest in Loblolly Labradors.
We are very excited to share that Jubal is expecting a yellow litter to Donaghy in mid-February. This litter will be the third repetition of the cross as each prior litter yielded lovely English Labs with all the hallmarks of the breed that Labrador aficionados expect: beautiful blocky heads, thick/double coats, thick bone, wide breadth and depth of body, wagging otter tails, and, most importantly, that affectionate and intelligent demeanor that says "you're the most important person in the world to me, but just let me go grab this stick for you to prove it." The pups will be born mid February and ready for adoption in 8 weeks time-- mid April. While with us, they are raised in a clean, indoor, climate controlled environment; administered all requisite de-wormings and initial vaccinations; and, socialized daily in increasing increments of handling, noise desensitization, and novelty introduction. While our Labs perform with great aplomb in the retrieving, obedience, and therapy domains, first and foremost, they are bred to be family companions, and that is exactly what we are looking for in terms of adoption for our dogs: conscientious, warm, and reasonable people who can offer a secure home with loving discipline and lifelong commitment. As our Labs represent generations of dogs screened (our family line is now in it's 28th year of nurture) for health and soundness, we offer a two year written guarantee against debilitating issues of hip, elbow, and eye health (dysplasia and premature retinal atrophy, respectively) with every pup. At pickup your puppy will go home with a care kit and portfolio, including a week's supply of Victor Hi-Pro Plus kibble, non-rawhide chews, quality treats, toy, comfort rag, and training pads and AKC pre-paid registration, pedigrees, health record, general care information, and written sales contract. We are located approximately 45 minutes southeast of Nashville, TN. Again, thanks so much for visiting our site. We welcome questions and inquires, and do our best to respond within 48 hours. LoblollyLabradors@gmail.com Happy 2020, America! Christopher & Eve Farrell Tennessee :) |

Loblolly Labradors is a labor of love and ongoing, conscientious pursuit of the beauty and satisfaction of a well-bred Labrador retriever. Creating a complex and fulfilling relationship with another species, in our case-- DOGS-- we think, reflects years well-spent. The families who adopt our Labs share that belief and are committed to integrating one into their household as a cherished, lifetime member. Archives
