labrador puppies for sale NSW Australia

Author: admin  //  Category: homes for sale darwin

Our Labrador puppies are bred in a family environment, and are socialised with other

dogs, children, adults, etc. They also enjoy their rural 5 acre property, including the

dam.

Our quality Labrador puppies normally go to their new homes when they are at least eight

weeks of age. This is for a couple of reasons.

Firstly, they are Vet checked, vaccinated, microchipped, etc at six weeks of age. And

then they remain with us for the further two weeks to help their immunity to respond etc

to the vaccinations, before they leave us.

Secondly, it is our understanding that it is also a requirement of law for dog breeders

in NSW not to sell their Labrador puppies until they are at least eight weeks of age. And

we believe that this is sensible, so that the Labrador pups are of adequate maturity

before going to their new homes, and to also allow for vaccination’s response etc.

Please note that we are experienced and registered Labrador breeders, having been

breeding Labradors for many years now, and being registered with Dogs NSW.

Each Labrador pup that we breed is provided to their new family with a range of items,

which include:

six weeks of free insurance (conditions apply);

vaccination of each Labrador puppy at 6 weeks of age (and with Vet certificate);

worming (by breeder);

microchip (by Veterinarian);

examination of each puppy by a Veterinarian;

numerous dog related ebooks;

pedigree certificate; and

comprehensive care and welfare guide for your Labrador pup.

In relation to delivery, the Labrador pups can be collected directly from us, or they can

be transported to you. Many of our Labrador pups go to Sydney, and can be flown there or

can be collected from us at Taree. We also have Labrador pups flying to other

destinations, so please do not hesitate to contact us if you would like further details.

As a guide of the cost, following are details of the flight costs to the various

destinations for an eight week old Labrador puppy:

Sydney: $155 Canberra: $185 Melbourne: $205 Brisbane: $165 Perth: $360 Darwin:

$350 Adelaide: $220 Hobart: $220

Please note that these details do not remain valid, and should not be relied upon. They

are only provided as a guide.

We have Labrador puppies for sale in NSW Australia normally at various times throughout

the year.

More details, pictures, etc about our puppies are on our website.
