Hello, we are Ari and Gregory.

We are living at the foot of Teutoburg Forest close to the beautiful Hesseltal, a picturesque valley. Many hours roaming this beautiful area with our dogs, have inspired us to call our kennel Hesseldale.

We are both passionate about dogs, who have been at our side since childhood and have become an essential part of our lives. Our hearts beat for labradors in particular. That is why we took the decision to mate our bitch Int. FT CH Masters of Water Emie dite Ellie with FT CH Waterford Ganton in 2016. Our two bitches Gundog’s Choice Flame called Lemmy and Gundog’s Choice Flinte called Purdey result from this perfect match.

These two are the foundation of the Hesseldale kennel.

This is why we dedicate our homepage entirely to these two bitches. We aim to breed healthy labradors with a good temperament and the typical will to please. Even though we deeply enjoy taking part in working tests and picking up with our dogs, they really are family members accompanying us through our everyday lives. It is our goal to pass on the wonderful character of Ellie and her offspring to future generations of dogs.
