Health Checks & Our Breeding Policy
We only breed from dogs that are fit and healthy and have been health screened for the current KC requirements of their breed.
All our dogs are up to date with their innoculations.
Our dogs are hip scored:
- Cocoa (Charlie's Mum) 2-2
- Charlie 3-3
- Sasha Awaiting results
- Button (Charlie's daughter) Will be tested in July - when she is one.
All our dogs also have eye checks and we would not consider breeding from any dog if they were not clear. We supply a copy of all health certificates for the relevant dog at the time of mating or on the sale of the puppies.
Charlie has been Optigen tested in the USA and his results have come back as clear/normal for prcd-PRA, so we can be assured he will never pass on this form of progressive retinal atrophy which will eventually cause blindness, to any of his puppies.
Charlie is 3 years old soon and a perfect example of a fit, active working Labrador. He is very dark chocolate coated, really handsome, has a great athletic build and is a proven stud.
We have two great new additions to the family, to breed from over the next few year. We have now retired Cocoa and will use Sasha and Button from this year on. Sasha. is two later this year and is not related to any of our other dogs and Button who is now 6 months old and came from one of Charlie's litters. She is really gorgeous and a bundle of fun and is now 6 months old. We will be breeding from Sasha this year and are planning to breed from Button and Sasha in 2011, so with the two girls. I will hopefully be able to keep up with the demand for our wonderful pups.
We believe that a dog should have a great temperament before they are bred from. This way you get great puppies who will make the best family pets. Both Cocoa and Charlie have loving temperaments, you are more likely to be licked to death than ever snapped at!
Visiting bitches must be fit and healthy, KC Registered, Hip Scored, Eye checked and be up to date with their inoculations.
