| Breeding
Philosophy
Our goal is
for a healthy, athletic dog with a good disposition. We want a great family
– hunting partner. Intelligence and marking abilities are extremely
important.
Breeding Program
We look at both dog’s personalities to make sure the breeding
will be an improvement for the breed. Then we look at their pedigree to
make sure they come from solid breeding with no in-breeding or line breeding.
Both dogs must have current eye and hip ratings of good or excellent.
Titles
Titles help us prove our breeding program. The titles show the
abilities of our dogs. As a buyer it says that the dogs can meet the standards
set by the association that awards the titles.
Guarantees
We guarantee both the eyes and hips of our dogs to be defect
free.
Hunt Our Dogs
We hunt all of our dogs, that’s why we are in the kennel
business. We feel if we hunt our dogs we are seeing what our clients are
getting, and it helps us in our breeding program. We want the best hunting
and family dogs.
Shipping
Yes, we ship our puppies – dogs. All dogs must have a health
certificate issued by a vet before they are put on a plane.
AKC Registration
All of our dogs are registered. This means the pedigree is on
file with AKC and can be verified as a pure-breed Labrador Retriever.
Does the color of the
dog make a difference?
The color of a lab doesn’t make a difference in its ability
in hunting. Color is mostly personal choice.
1st "Pick"
- how important is it?
It’s not really that important. Most puppies are chosen
between 7 and 9 weeks of age. This is way too young to predict how the
dog will turn out. Selection is done more by features of the pup, the
size and personality changes as the pup gows. The biggest impact in developing
a dog is its environment, training, socialization, along with good nutrition
and exercise.
We do not sell to pet shops
or Commercial dealers for resale. |
