Please thoroughly read the information below before contacting us about our puppies. It should answer most if not all of your questions regarding our puppies/breeding practices.

First and foremost we only breed a litter with the intention of keeping a puppy.

We breed Labrador Retrievers for genetic soundness, temperament, Labrador conformation, and retrieving ability. We pay careful attention to temperament in selecting dogs for our breeding program. We strive to produce quality dogs with excellent temperament, soundness, intelligence/trainability and type.

We do not breed often. We are a HOBBY, not a business. We are extremely particular about who adopts our Kelrobin babies and therefore rarely sell out of the Michigan area so we can assure our puppies of the proper home.

All breeding stock is cleared of genetic eye anomalies annually using a ACVO eye exam.

Puppies are sold only to pre-qualified (screened) purchasers by referral or application only (we normally have a waiting list). Under absolutely NO circumstances will a puppy or adult be sold or consigned to pet shops, other commercial dealers or offered at auction.

We reserve the right to refuse to sell a puppy to any individual(s) for any reason we see fit.

All puppy buyers are required to fill out a questionnaire. Serious inquiries only.

General health is guaranteed. Other guarantees & stipulations are stated in our Puppy Contract.

Kelrobin puppies are born and raised inside our home. They are provided a safe and clean environment where they are watched carefully and receive lots of human as well as other dog contact.

Puppies are wormed several times as needed and are vaccinated at 6 weeks. We do not remove dewclaws.

Puppy's temperaments are evaluated and matched with purchasers whose lifestyles and desires are compatible with the evaulation results. We will pick the best puppy for you.

Since we normally do not choose our own puppy before 6-7 weeks, we will not know which puppy is yours until after that.

Pet puppies are sold on Limited Registration (which means the puppy cannot be bred or shown in conformation but may be shown in obedience, agility, hunt tests or any type of performance events) and spay/neuter contracts -- without exception.

We require that all puppies/dogs sold by us will be indoor dogs, part of their new family.

Deposits are taken only after the puppies are born. For this reason, deposits are non-refundable unless we don't have the color/gender you desire or the puppy is not available for delivery at 7-8 weeks of age.

All puppies are sent home with microchips inserted, plus a breeder-written puppy book which includes articles on training, health & safety.

We will always stand by our policy that any dog of our breeding will always be welcome here. If, for any reason, you decide not to keep a Kelrobin dog, please contact us and we will keep the dog until it can be placed in a new home, however long that may be. We NEVER want to see a dog of our breeding end up in a shelter.
