Simba

Steptoe's Black Simba at Three Bears

Simba is a handsome, well-built black male with the kind of presence that catches your eye from across the yard. As part of our partnership with Three Bears Labradors, he brings deep English Labrador lines and the blocky, correct build we love most into our program. He carries himself with the calm confidence and gentle disposition that makes a great English Lab — steady, sweet, and solid through and through.

His sire, MBISS GCHB CH Lakeside Memoir of Gallivant CGC TKN — known simply as "Memo" — is one of the most decorated Labrador Retrievers in the country. A two-time Westminster Kennel Club Best of Breed winner, Memo also earned Best of Breed at the prestigious Potomac in 2019, Best of Breed at the LRC National Specialty, Best of Breed at the AKC National Dog Show, and even earned a CC at Crufts — the world's most prestigious dog show. His health clearances are equally exceptional: OFA Good hips, OFA Normal elbows, Normal cardiac, and clear across every genetic panel. That winning combination of correct English build, rock-solid health, and extraordinary temperament flows directly through Simba — and into every litter he sires.
