Waterspook is a full time Dog Training Center.
We also offer beautiful Hunting bred Labrador Pups. Although we
don't have puppies all of the time, when we do- they are pretty
special. We start with selecting parents who meet very demanding
specifications in trainability, natural hunting instincts, proper
appearance, and most importantly- PHYSICAL AND MENTAL SOUNDNESS.
That is why all Waterspook breeding stock is OFA hip OFA elbow and
ACVO or CERF eye cleared. Also, now that the DNA
test for EIC (Exercise Induced Collapse) is available to all breeders,
all of our breeding stock, and outside breeding stock, is also tested
for EIC.
Also, now that the DNA test for EIC (Exercise
Induced Collapse) and
CNM (CentroNeuroMyopathy)
Although nobody can guarantee
a living animal's future- these criteria allow for peace of mind
for us and you! All of our puppies are born and raised indoors,
I sleep near the dam and pups for several days to weeks- then at
5 weeks, they're moved out to the puppy pen where they have full
access to many toys and challenges. Our puppies are NEVER raised
on concrete surfaces- unlike so many other's. I feel this is a benefit
in keeping them cleaner, and also is better for their growing joints.
They're acclimated to loud noises from the beginning ,and are started
'retrieving' birds at 5 weeks. This of course, continues until they
leave for their new homes. At 4 weeks, I begin observing closely
their developing personalities, so that I can offer input to each
potential family, about the puppies' behavior.
Waterspook Puppies are current
on vaccinations and wormed several times.
Sorry, we do not ship puppies,
Also- as an incentive to return to Waterspook for later training-
a $100.00 discount is offered to Waterspook Puppy buyers on the
"Gundog Program" (or any program lasting 8 weeks or longer.).
