Bridge Creek Litters

Thank you for your interest in a Bridge Creek puppy...

If you are interested in adopting a Bridge Creek puppy, please read through this entire page before submitting an Application.

Our puppies are sold for $1100.00 (plus applicable taxes) and are ready to leave with their new families after eight weeks of age. New puppy families are encouraged to pick up their puppies from our home whenever possible in order to meet the puppy's mother in person and see the outstanding environment that their puppy has been raised in. Once a litter is planned, carefully selected homes will be invited to make a reservation for a puppy from the upcoming litter. Reservations are highly advised as our litters typically sell out a year or more in advance. A $300.00 deposit is required in order to make a reservation and is deducted from the final purchase price. Deposits are fully refundable up until the time that the dam has been bred, should the applicant change their mind for any reason.

Our involvement with the Labrador Retriever is a hobby - not a business, and as such we usually plan litters very infrequently. Bridge Creek puppies are not for sale to pet stores, commercial breeders, or resellers; they are sold as companions to loving families or as potential show dogs to serious and trusted show homes. We are breeding primarily for the purpose of producing our next show/breeding prospects and reserve the first pick of the litter for ourselves. Puppy selections will be carefully made for each family after we have gotten to know the puppies' individual personalities, completed formal temperament testing on the litter, assessed conformation, and selected our own puppies at 7-8 weeks of age. Any puppies that we do not keep for ourselves are placed into their new homes on a CKC Non-Breeding Agreement and a Spaying & Neutering Contract.

Each puppy is tattooed, temperament tested, dewormed three times, and vaccinated for Parvovirus, Distemper, Andenovirus, and Para-influenza before going to their new homes. Our puppies leave us with a sample of the food that they have been started on, a Lifetime Return Policy, a written Health Guarantee, and six weeks of complimentary pet insurance. We are pleased to provide each new puppy family with a very special Puppy Gift Bag; additionally, every puppy also leaves us with their own portfolio containing:

A Letter for your Veterinarian
Written Health, Hip, Elbow & Eye Guarantees
Spaying & Neutering Contract
CKC Registration
Food Guide & Feeding Schedule
Information on Housetraining, Vaccinations, Teething, Spaying & Neutering, Disease and Poisonous plants
