We bought a male chocolate lab from this so called ""breeder"". After one night he started having bloody stool and was lethargic.
Of course we took him to the vet right away in order to head of anymore health issues and it turned out that he was infested with Coccidiosis, which is a parasite and among other things can be triggered through stress and very unsanitary kennel conditions, which is what I believe to be the case. Of course I can not confirm this suspicion since I was not allowed to view the kennel conditions or look at the sire and the dam.
If a breeder has nothing to hide and is willing to answer all you concerns and questions and even states that on their website then why did Leah refuse to let me look around? When I contacted her on the size of the puppy (looks extremely small when compared to other labs that age) and the blood in the stool she was unbelievably rude and yelled into the phone to bring the puppy back and stop being demanding and I would get my money back. Of course after a lengthy conversation with my family we decided against it because we felt so sorry for this puppy and did not want to subject him back in that horrible environment.
Please lab lovers of all ages, please beware of this breeder/kennel since this is nothing other then a disguised puppy mill.
If you are looking for a reputable breeder check the AKC website or some other site and find a breeder that costs less and gives you absolutely open access and answers on all your concerns or questions that you might have.
Last but not least I find it suspicious that this kennel has more then 60% BAD or 1 star reviews. That is more then any other breeder or kennel I found online. If it were a great breeder then the reviews should all be top notch statements. Unfortunately I can't give 0 stars because that is the rating this breeder deserves. STAY CLEAR OF THIS PUPPY MILL.
