About Us
We began breeding and training Labradors in 1984 with the purchase of a lovely yellow female from the kennel of Don and Virginia Campbell of Campbellcroft Labradors. We fell in love with the dual purpose Labrador that had the true look and temperament of the English Labrador with the natural desire and drive to hunt.
Ted is the great grandson of William Kent who founded the town of Kentfield, California in the late 1800’s. This name seemed the natural choice of a kennel name for us. Ted's family are avid conservationists, philanthropists, and hunters. The Labrador has always been a solid part of the Kent family for generations.
Jake & Maile are the new managers of our new kennel in Crescent, Oklahoma.
Our son & his wife are working on our newest addition to our Kentfield Kennels Labrador Family. They are managing a 40 acre property we purchased and have expanded our kennel looking at the next generation of Kentfield Kennels breeders & trainers.
They also raise and breed cattle & working horses. A love of roping and riding horses brought a special invitation to Maile in 2023 to be part of the first Women of Rodeo at the San Francisco Cow Palace competing against the best of the United States in bronco riding. Maile holds the title of the number one rider in Oklahoma!
