Raising Quality Chocolate and Black Labradors Since 1985

Our Puppies

 

Handsome, healthy, sound working dogs you can live with

NOTE: We have all of our dogs cleared for hip displasia, elbow displasia, have annual eye exams (CERF) and have tested our dogs for the Centronuclear Myopathy gene (CNM) and the Exercise Induced Collapse gene (EIC). EIC and CNM can be potentially fatal in dogs that are affected. Identifying the carriers so informed breeding decisions can be made means we will NEVER produce an affected dog.

A carrier bred to a clear dog will produce NORMAL (non-affected) pups. Some of the pups may be carriers, but this does not affect their health or working ability. The pups that will be used in future breeding programs should be tested and breeding decisions made accordingly.

 

All of our pups are well socialized from birth. Dew claws are removed at three days old. Between five weeks and eight weeks old, pups receive parvo virus and other booster shots as recommended by our veterinarian. Around six to seven weeks, our pups are microchipped, each with a unique letter/number combination.

Between six and eight weeks old, the pups will be examined by a certified canine ophthalmologist. Eye exam papers will be included in the health records received by new puppy owners.

Puppies will be introduced to feathers from five weeks on and will be worked with individually as well as within the litter. Based on the personalities and traits of the puppies, I match each puppy with the requirements of the prospective owners.

Our pups are usually priced between $800 and $1200, depending on the pedigrees and titles of sire and dam.

Shipping can be arranged, with the added costs of air freight, shipping crate, health certificate and transportation to the airport.
