Meet the Parents of Dirty Verde Ranch Labradors

At Dirty Verde Ranch, the heart of our breeding program lies with our exceptional parent dogs, Charlie Brown and Peppermint Patty. These two bring together the best traits of the Labrador breed, and they’re not just incredible parents—they’re also beloved family members with unique personalities and a strong bond.

Charlie Brown

Our English Lab Stud

Charlie Brown, our handsome English chocolate lab, is the ultimate gentle giant. With a relaxed, easygoing temperament, he’s our “surfer dude” who’s happiest by his family’s side. Charlie’s calm demeanor and willingness to please make him a joy to train, and he’s always eager for cuddles. Smart and mellow, Charlie brings a steady, loving nature to his puppies, giving them that ideal family-friendly Labrador personality.

Peppermint Patty (Peps)

Our American Lab Dam

Peppermint Patty, or “Peps” as we call her, is our energetic and intelligent American lab. Coming from strong hunting lines, Peps has a keen sense for adventure and a quick mind. She’s highly trainable, always ready to learn, and absolutely adores kids. With a heart full of loyalty and a love for the outdoors, Peps balances her spirited side with a deep affection for her family. Her puppies inherit her sharp mind and love for work, making them excellent companions and loyal family members.

Why Charlie & Peps Make the Perfect Pair

Together, Charlie and Peps blend the best of both the English and American lab lines. Their puppies are quick learners, eager to bond with their families, and are well-suited for homes looking for a dog that can be both a loving companion and a willing partner in adventures.

Charlie and Peps are more than parents—they’re the foundation of our program and the embodiment of the Labrador spirit we’re proud to share with you.
