Puppies!

This page is dedicated to all things puppy... the milk breath, the fat tummies, the downy fur.
Beautiful, loving adults are the goal, but the babies are a ephemeral spot of joy.

Here is some general information on adopting one of our Labrador pups: 

• Our genetic lines represent 40 years of our family's efforts to produce sound, intelligent, companionable, and conformationally correct English Labradors. Through the years we have been active in show and field arenas, but our preference and our focus now is on raising high quality Labradors for the family setting. 
• Our Labs are homed with limited AKC registration (no transfer of breeding rights) and the understanding that the pup is to be integrated into the family household as a 24/7 companion for its lifetime. All of our pups are placed under these auspices. All pups go directly into family households without exception. 
• Our pups come with a 24 month guarantee on hip and eye health. 
• We raise our puppies in a clean, climate-controlled environment their entire time with us from birth to adoption.
• By the time puppies are eight weeks we have administered a minimum of three de-wormings, initial vaccinations, and daily socialization (e.g., daily handling, graduated introduction of novelty, noise desensitization, controlled outside visits), so that they come to your family healthy, happy, and confident.
• As the pups grow, we send out weekly Puppy Reports with pictures and details to families with reservations so that you can enjoy their maturation until adoption at ages 9-12 weeks.
• At adoption, we offer information and insight on disposition, energy level, and attention-valence to families to assist in the selection process of individual pups.
• We send puppies home with a portfolio that includes lifetime care guidelines/pedigrees/breed info, microchip, written health contract, health records, pre-paid AKC registration, a care kit of sundries, and a week's supply of quality kibble.

Please contact us at [email protected] for additional information on specific litters. We welcome inquiries and are glad to answer any questions that you have. When you do contact us, we ask that you share general information regarding your history with the breed and/or dogs and hopes and intentions for your puppy.

If you are looking for a puppy...

Please contact us at [email protected] and/or visit our Current News tab. We are happy to discuss with you present or upcoming litters. We breed all three colors of Labradors, so if you have a color preference, we may be able to accommodate your desires. Ultimately though, excellent temperament, health, intelligence, and conformation are the most important attributes of any Labrador, and these are what we strive for in our breeding program.
