What are the Annual Breeder Awards—and why do they matter?

In this special solo episode, Sara introduces the ABAs, a new initiative created to recognise breeders who are quietly raising the bar. First in the spotlight is Adam Mayle, winner of the Rising Star Award, whose thoughtful, health-focused approach to breeding Labradors has earned him a growing reputation for doing things the right way.

Adam shares how he moved from German Shepherds to Labradors, the role of mentorship in shaping his journey, and how he balances work, family and breeding without compromising on ethics. From ovulation testing to puppy aftercare, this episode offers grounded, real-life insight into what it truly takes to build a responsible breeding programme.

For breeders seeking tailored support that reflects their breed, background and mindset, join the Brew Crew and be part of a community that celebrates progress and purpose.
