Q: Do you have any puppies available?
A: To see our available puppies click on either a "Puppy" page, or the name of a mother.
Q: How old do the puppies have to be to go to their new homes?
A: Puppies have to be seven (7) weeks old to be picked up and eight (8) weeks to be shipped by air.
Q: What areas do you ship to?
A: We are able to ship to all 48 Continental United States and Alaska. We are also able to ship to areas such as Puerto Rico and Canada just as easily.
On a case by case basis we may consider shipment of a puppy Internationally, depending on the country.
Of course the shipping of a puppy Internationally costs substantially more than Nationally. Puerto Rico and Canada are generally
about the same price as the United States.
Q: What is the cost to have a puppy shipped?
A: Normally it is $350.00 to have a puppy shipped to almost everywhere. Occasionally a certain airport may be higher, beyond our control.
Shipping a second puppy in the same crate is only an additional $50.00! The shipping cost includes the cost of the travel crate,
the required Vet Health Certificate and the airfare to an airport near you. We also throw in a free collar and leash so you may let him
go potty on your way home.
Q: Do you allow people to come and visit your facility and/or our reserved puppy?
A: Certainly! We welcome visitors and enjoy getting to know some of the people that will be adopting our puppies.
We do however prefer if you wait until the puppies you'd like to see are at least 3-4 weeks old, so they are strong enough to be handled by
several people. Another very important thing that we REQUIRE is that you have not been to any other kennel/breeding facility,
as young puppies are very susceptible to illness and we do not want to expose our babies to any viruses that could be brought from another facility.
I'm sure you understand that we need to protect the puppies at all cost. Most of the puppies we raise are for other people, and protecting
"your baby" is top priority for us. Those with puppies reserved with us are very thankful for this policy.
Q: How long have you been raising Labrador Retriever puppies?
A: We started raising Labs in 1994, so have quite a few years experience with the breed and in raising puppies.
Q: What color Labradors do you breed?
A: We breed Labs in all three colors recognized by the AKC, black, yellow and chocolate. Yellow Labs come in a variety of shades from snow
white to a dark fox red. These different shades although are certainly not actually "yellow" are still registered as yellow with the AKC.
Q: What is included with a puppy when adopted?
A: All of our puppies will have their first vaccinations and be dewormed every two weeks until adopted. We also send a your puppy home with
a "deluxe" puppy packet which includes
his vaccination records, his pedigree, info on Labrador Retrievers breed standard, spay/neuter info as well as acclimating and training information.
We also provide you with a starter bag of the food your puppy is currently eating so you may mix it with your new food.
Switching gradually is best so that there is less chance of stomach upset for your puppy. We also recommend that you use bottled water at
first and gradually switch to your own tap water after he is fully on your new food.
One change at a time is best to avoid causing too much stress on a young puppy.
Q: Do you guarantee your puppies? What do we do if the puppy we adopt develops a problem?
A: We do guarantee our puppies and will replace a puppy that is found to have a defect. When dealing with live animals, you can never be certain that
everything will always be 100% perfect, or a guarantee would not be necessary. We guarantee that your puppy will pass an OFA at 24 months of age and
a CERF exam at 12 months of age or you may apply the price that you paid for your puppy to another puppy.
If the second puppy is higher in price, you must pay the difference.
