About Our Breeding Program

  • Health & Genetic Testing:
    All breeding stock is cleared for known hereditary conditions in Labrador Retrievers.

  • Breeding Philosophy:
    • Breeding to the Labrador Standard—there is no “American” or “English” Labrador, only a true, purebred Labrador that should look and move like a Labrador!
    • We breed black, yellow, and occasionally chocolate Labradors—these are the only three recognized purebred colors.
    • Beware of non-standard colors; any other “color” is often a mixed breed—choose reputable breeders who prioritize breed integrity.
  • Puppy Prices:
    • Well-bred, reputable Labrador puppies typically cost $3,500 to $4,500.
  • Puppy Rearing and Socialization:
    • Puppies are born and raised in my home environment.
    • Starting at 4 weeks, puppies spend the day on the back patio and nights inside the house.
    • Raised following the Puppy Culture Program for socialization and early training.
    • Incorporate the Rule of 7 — Early Neurological Stimulation to promote healthy development.
  • Breeding Philosophy & Schedule:
    • I am a hobby breeder, breeding only when I want a puppy or two for my own program—usually once a year at most.
    • I do not start a waiting list until pregnancy is confirmed.
    • Puppies are selected for their prospective families based on compatibility, not on a first-come basis.
  • Puppy Placement:
    • I personally meet and speak with all prospective owners to ensure a good match.
    • Puppies are placed with limited registration and spay/neuter agreements; they are not sold for breeding or show.
    • No puppies are sold over email or online—personal interaction is required.
  • Puppy Care & Vaccination:
    • Puppies receive their first vaccines at 6-7 weeks and are dewormed at least 3 times.
    • All puppies are microchipped before going home.
    • They are veterinarian-checked and cleared before placement, and new owners must have a health check within 48 hours.
  • Puppy Pick & Return Policy:
    • No refunds.
    • I ask for first right of refusal if the owner can no longer keep the puppy; I take back any dog I breed and will find a suitable home.
  • Additional Information:
    • Many of my puppies go on to serve as working service or support dogs.
