First a little bit of history about our town, Natchez, MS. Historically, Natchez is one of the most unique towns in the United States. Natchez is the oldest city on the Mississippi river, predating New Orleans by about fifteen years. Prior to the Civil War, or as we call it the "War of Northern Aggression" , Natchez had the greatest number of millionaires per capita of any city in the US. Today we have a wonderful  restored downtown and the largest group of Antebellum mansions in the South.  Come visit us and see the South as it was one hundred fifty years ago. 

We established Oak Alley Kennels in 1982, originally starting out in town, but soon moving to our present location about five miles South of Natchez We have open areas as well as a nice lake for water work.. We are situated in the hills, surrounded by woods, and few neighbors. Our Kennel is very small, with just a few good dogs. We average one to two litters per year and don't plan to expand.

Our Labrador Retrievers have all been either imported from the UK, or born here in the USA from 100% UK  field trial and field bred Labradors. My son and I both Duck hunt and while I cannot make as many hunts as I would like, he hunts at least 3 days per week. Our Duck hunting is primarily in flooded Rice and bean fields from pit blinds. The dogs get plenty of work and pick up quite a lot of ducks as well as the occasional goose.

Puppies, when we have them, are whelped on our screened back porch or in our basement in the winter. Puppies get lots of human contact and are well socialized. My wife Myla devotes lots and lots of time to playing with, loving and fussing over the puppies. Our Granddaughter who lives across the lake from us is a great puppy socializer as well!
