Welcoming a puppy home sometimes requires some questions.
|
Here are the answers to some of the most Frequently Asked Questions that we get from new puppy owners. We ask that you peruse this page for general information about Loblolly's breeding and ownership program. If you still have questions or think you're ready to welcome home a Lab puppy, please contact us at loblollylabradors@gmail.com, and we're happy to talk with you directly. |
What are the steps in the process of buying a Loblolly puppy?Please check our Current News page for information about planned or available litters, or contact us directly at loblollylabradors@gmail.com. Most of our puppies go to companion homes with limited registration (i.e, non-transfer of breeding rights). When you contact us, please detail your desires so that we can match you with the best planned litter and puppy that will fulfill your intentions and hopes.
Our puppies sell at fair market price for a well-bred Lab that reflects the 35 years of resources, diligence, and sacrifice that have gone into developing the quality of our lines, as well as the ongoing costs of maintaining a responsible and reputable breeding program. We prefer not to take deposits until we have actual puppies, but we do keep a waiting list. Once a litter is born, we collect nonrefundable deposits to guarantee ownership. Puppies begin going to their new homes at 8 weeks old, equipped with a Take Home Care Kit, which includes a week's supply of food, sundries, health records, pre-paid AKC registration papers, information packet, and pedigrees. If you are unable to make the drive to our home for pickup of your puppy, we are willing to assist in delivery for a reasonable fee based on mileage. |
How often do you have puppies available?Windancing lines were very active in the previous decade through a stud dog program maintained in Pennsylvania. Our males produced hundreds of beautiful and healthy Labrador puppies in the northeastern United States. Here at Loblolly in Tennessee, we have five potential litters planned for the 2020 year. We anticipate all three colors but do not breed expressly for color. Please visit the Current News tab for information relating to available puppies.

How will my puppy be cared for and socialized before it comes home to me?Loblolly puppies receive all requisite worming and vaccinations and are raised in a clean, climate controlled, indoor environment. We handle our pups daily from the very beginning of their lives and take great pains to ensure that every puppy is well-adjusted to dog and human alike.
By the time you welcome your puppy home, it will have played in the grass and fell asleep in someone's arms.
