Osa is a beautiful 5-year-old chocolate English Labrador with an exceptionally gentle and affectionate soul. She is the kind of dog who naturally seeks closeness with her people and forms deep emotional bonds with those around. Her loving nature and calm personality make her an incredibly comforting companion. While many Labradors are known for their love of water, Osa is happiest staying dry and enjoying the quieter side of life. She prefers peaceful moments, soft attention, and simply being near the people she loves most. Whether resting at your feet or following you from room to room, Osa’s greatest joy is companionship. She is calm, well-balanced, and wonderfully sweet-tempered, making her an ideal fit for a home that values affection, patience, and a relaxed environment. Osa truly has a heart full of love, and we hope to find a forever family who will cherish the gentle devotion she gives so naturally.

**********************************************
All of our Zarate Labradors, the delightful sound of tiny paws fills our home as we welcome adorable puppies into the world.

All of our Zarate Labradors puppies are born inside our home, in our cozy sun room located off of the living room. 

Our nursery, designed with climate control, offers a cozy and secure environment where these little gems can thrive. Once they reach the age of four weeks, they move into the nursery, ready to embark on a journey of exploration and development.

In our dedicated puppy pre-school, these little ones are not merely learning basic commands; they are also acquiring essential social skills that will play a crucial role in their future interactions. Through a variety of engaging activities, we help them become familiar with different sounds and experiences, ensuring they grow up confident and well-adjusted.

Being retired provides us with the wonderful opportunity to focus entirely on our furry companions. Our daily routines are filled with playful antics, cuddles, and countless chances to bond. We are also proud to have an exceptional Kennel Assistant on board—an experienced former Vet Tech whose knowledge and passion significantly elevate the care we provide to our puppies.

We feel incredibly blessed to engage in this enriching pursuit, watching how it transforms not only the lives of our beloved pets but also our own. By showering these puppies with love and attention, we are cultivating a future brimming with joy, loyalty, and wagging tails.



​We also offer reduced pricing for families who are already part of Zarate Labs.

Special Needs Dogs 

At Zarate Labrador's family, every pup is valued and deeply loved from time to time, occasionally we have a "special needs" dog from exceptional bloodlines who, due to congenital conditions or unique circumstances, may require extra care, understanding, or long-term commitment! These dogs are not defined by limitations — they are defined by their capacity to give love and companionship. We believe the right home makes all the difference! Our "special needs" are placed only with families or individuals who are prepared, informed, and committed to providing the care and affection these dogs deserve.
If you feel called to offer a compassionate, responsible home and understand that love sometimes asks for a little more! we invite you to chat and learn more.
