NORTH SHORE LABRADORS

                 EST. 1999 

Our puppies are sold on a first come , first serve basis.  We are only going to start a puppy waiting list when we know that we either have a pregnant female or actually have puppies.  Both sire and dams parents  of our pups have their health clearances and usually these health clearances go deep into the pedigree with grand parents, great grand parents, etc also having their health clearances as well.  However this still is NOT a guarantee as many health issues are not created by a simple recessive gene and the fact that the parents are not affected does not prohibit them from still producing the occasional problem.

Your pup will be current on vaccinations & worming when he/she goes to his/her new home but there will still be more needed in the future.  We give all vaccination information to you when you pick up your pup so you can take it to your vet.  DO NOT LET YOUR VETERINARIAN VACCINATE YOUR PUPPY BEFORE IT IS DUE FOR ITS NEXT VACCINATION.  THIS CAN RESULT IN ILLNESS, FOR WHICH YOU ALONE WILL BE RESPONSIBLE.

We sell all of our pet puppies on an AKC LIMITED REGISTRATION (NO IF, ANDS, OR BUTS), which means they are AKC registered dogs which CANNOT be used for breeding and cannot be shown in conformation shows or field trials.  They can however be shown in obedience, agility, rally, tracking, retriever hunting trials, service dogs and other performance events and can earn titles.  If they are bred, AKC will NOT give a registration to the resulting puppies.

We will take back one of our dogs at any time in its life for any reason,  and in fact we want to be your first phone call if for any reason you can no longer keep your dog.  We will take the dog back,  and if we can resell it , will do so and then return your purchase price.  Sometimes the dog might be middle aged or older and cannot be resold and in that case you would not get your purchase price returned, and we would probably keep the dog for the rest of its life as one of our house dogs.  Our main goal is to know where our dogs are and that they are in good, happy homes where they are part of the family.

We are happy to guide you throughout the dogs life with answers to your questions and help you in anyway we can.
