About Us
Founded in 2013 Lords and Labradors initially launched in the UK. We now have loyal customers in 17 countries including Denmark, Italy, Germany, Japan, USA and Australia.
Having worked closely with ethical dog breeders it became obvious that there was a demand for high quality puppy products and kits, and importantly somewhere to get support and advise at the same time.
Our core products are designed, developed and made in our specialist workshop in the UK to exacting quality standards. This includes our beautiful crate covers, bumper sets and iconic Chesterfields. Our toys, grooming products and coats are hand-picked from the very best suppliers worldwide.
We differentiate ourselves in 3 key ways by:
1. Having a team of very knowledgeable experts on hand to answer queries on sizing and the suitability of our products for your particular breed.
2. Trialling all products before we list them: We have a network of puppy and dog owners that put each product through its paces!
3. Having a no quibble returns policy and going over and above with our customer service.
We hope you enjoy your Lords & Labradors experience and if there is anything we can help you with just get in touch!
With Love
The Lords and Labradors Team
