Belhaven Labradors and all breeding dogs are certified through the OFA (Orthopedic Foundation Association) for the following;
HIPS, PATELLA, SHOULDER, ELBOWS, HEARTS, even the HOCKS are evaluated through the OFA.
This is very important to us and should be very important to you when searching for Labrador Puppies for sale...
We DNA test them for genetic markers so they don't carry illnesses you don't want your puppy to have. THEY ARE CLEARED FOR EIC, PRA, DILUTE GENE, NARCOLEPSY. LONG COAT and more.
All dogs are examined by a licensed Ophthalmologist and cleared of eye problems and CERF'd yearly. This way I can ensure the healthiest puppy I can provide for the new owners. All pups are health certified by a licensed veterinarian, given their first set of vaccinations and have been chipped for identification. Crate training has begun along with the beginning of the housebreaking process. Pups are socialized and exposed to varied life experiences prior to 8 weeks of age. Temperament Testing occurs at 7 weeks of age. All pups are sold with a contract. IF FOR ANY REASON owners can no longer care for their dog, IS TO BE RETURNED TO ME and is never to be placed in a shelter or a rescue. Most dogs are sold on a limited registration, keeping the breeding to the breeders, unless other arrangements have been made...
Example; a CO-Own contract
