Sam is the first official stud dog at Marsagan Labradors. He comes from the world-class Copperbirch line and has a truly outstanding pedigree. He is without doubt one of the best bred stud dogs from Scotland. He is a great dog, very calm and one of few Labradors with a normal relationship to food. He is gundog trained and loves being out and in the water. He is also a great parent and the most tolerant dog in the house with puppies!
He is available at stud if you would like to breed him. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you would like to know more or come and see him. We can arrange a session at Marsagan Labradors or possibly at another place of your convenience.
