AKC GCH CH French Kiss Black and Chocolate at EverOak
“Victor”
BbEEDD – Black Carrying Chocolate, Dilute Free
AKC DNA Profile: V927251
We were truly honored to import Victor as a promising young prospect at just four months of age from Lily Zierova of Black & Chocolate Kennel in Ukraine. From the moment he arrived, Victor exemplified the qualities we value and protect at EverOak Labradors & Sussex Spaniels — beautiful substance, correct English type, balanced structure, strong pigment, and a pedigree grounded in proven excellence.
As he matured, Victor developed into an impressive and unmistakable representative of the Labrador Retriever. His presence in the ring, combined with his steady temperament and sound movement, led him to earn his AKC Grand Championship. More importantly, he reflects the thoughtful planning and long-term vision that define our preservation program.
Victor is a proven stud and is available on a limited, select basis to approved programs that share our commitment to breed integrity, health testing, and adherence to the Labrador Retriever standard.
Victor resides full-time with Amy Penuel at Stonebay Farms in Eastern North Carolina.

The EverOak Preservation Commitment
At EverOak, breeding decisions are never casual. We prioritize health, structure, temperament, working ability, and strict adherence to the official Labrador Retriever standard. Titles are meaningful — but legacy, soundness, and genetic stewardship matter more.
Dilute Gene Testing & Coat Color Integrity
The EverOak Commitment
Due to the ongoing controversy surrounding silver and other diluted coat colors, we believe in complete transparency and responsible genetic stewardship.
At EverOak Labradors & Sussex Spaniels, all of our breeding Labradors are DNA tested not only for coat color but specifically for the “D” locus (dilution gene). We are proud to state that every Labrador in our program is 100% dilute free (DD).
As preservation breeders, protecting the integrity of the Labrador Retriever is paramount. Careful genetic testing ensures that we uphold the official breed standard while safeguarding health, pigment, and long-term breed consistency.
We do not simply speak about preservation — we document it.
