Lab Puppy Quality

Lab Puppy Quality

Commitment to Health, Intelligence and Temperament.

Puppy Vaccination and Health Exam.
Our Veterinarian administers the first set of shots and conducts a health examination on each puppy. You will receive this certificate of health signed by our vet when you pick up your new Labrador Retriever. As well prior to leaving us we bath, trim the nails and clean the ears of your puppy.

Lab Puppy Deworming.
All of our lab puppies will have been de-wormed 3 times by the time they leave at week eight beginning at week 2. We only use the highest quality medicine which covers all worms and environmental parasites. Beginning at week 2 allows us to catch any worms before they can take hold resulting in puppies who thrive.

Lab Puppy Socialization
We spend a great deal of time socializing our lab puppies while they are with us. Puppies are exposed to Early Neurological Stimulation Pioneered by Dr. Carmen Battaglia, many different people, adult Labrador Retrievers, surfaces, sounds and situations. They are handled daily, talked to and yes even sung to! This begins slowly at 2 days old and the socialization time increases after their eyes and ears open.

The breed was first registered by the American Kennel Council (AKC) in 1935.

Due to depleted numbers as a result of service during the Second World War and subsequent research expeditions to Antarctica, AKC registration was reopened in the mid 1940s to bolster breed numbers.

In 1978 the first Alaskan Malamutes arrived in Australia via New Zealand and were officially registered soon after. The first litter of Australian pups where born in 1981. There are many hundreds of Alaskan Malamutes registered in Australia today, with approximately 300 in New South Wales alone. The breed is growing in popularity, especially as the sport of sled racing grows.
