Frequently Asked Questions

STILL NOT SURE?

We are passionate about building long-term relationships with our clients on a foundation of trust and care!

When you join us, you become part of our Chara Labrador Retriever Family!

Question 1: Do you health test your breeding dogs?

Yes. Every breeding dog completes comprehensive health testing, including hips, elbows, cardiac evaluations, and breed-specific DNA testing before becoming part of my breeding program.

Question 2: What colors do you raise?

I specialize in beautiful black and yellow Labrador Retrievers.

Question 3: How much are your puppies?

Puppies are $3,500, with a $500 non-refundable reservation deposit required after application approval.

Question 4: Can I choose my puppy?

I carefully evaluate each puppy's temperament and personality before helping families select the puppy that best fits their lifestyle and goals.

Question 5: When do puppies go home?

Puppies leave for their new homes after receiving their veterinary examination, age-appropriate vaccinations, deworming, microchip, and when they are developmentally ready.

Question 6: Do you offer Full AKC Registration?

Most puppies are placed with AKC Limited Registration. Full AKC Registration may occasionally be offered to approved show or breeding homes that share my commitment to responsible breeding and preservation of the Labrador Retriever.

Question 7: Do you ship puppies?

I am happy to discuss transportation options with approved families. Please contact me to learn more about available delivery or pickup arrangements.

Question 8: Do you provide support after my puppy comes home?

Absolutely. I believe my responsibility extends well beyond pickup day, and I'm always available to answer questions and support my puppy families throughout their dog's life.
