BWCA Lab pups are in 'hundreds of happy
homes' most of which are in Minnesota. We also have Puppy Placements in
Canada, California, Florida, Colorado, Indiana, Missouri, Illinois
(Chicago), Wisconsin, No & So Dakota, Michigan, Iowa, and Nebraska, with
most all of those new owners driving up to Ely, Minnesota to pick up their new Labrador Retriever puppies. BWCA Lab puppies are worth the trip and so is their hometown. Ely is a tourist town located on
the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness (BWCAW). It is a beautiful place to visit any time of the year.
