Thank you for your interest in Canaanland Labradors. 

     God has blessed us with some beautiful, multitalented, all purpose Labrador retrievers. 

     We breed for show, companion, hunting, and obedience, as well as assist dogs, from outstanding show champion, and AKC hunting titled pedigrees from the finest of English bloodlines, not to mention some of the most influential dogs of all ages.  

     Our primary objective is the IMPROVEMENT OF THE BREED through selective breeding; correct conformation; and by producing  healthy Labradors that excel in type, temperament, and  trainability. 

            All Breeding stock must posses the "true" Labrador temperament, which is a hallmark of the Labrador Retriever; as well as a representative of "breed type" in relation to the AKC standard, or the English Standard.  We screen for hereditary diseases; hips & elbows certified with OFA or Windmorgan; England, New Zealand, Sweden Hip Scheme; Eyes certified with AVCO, CERF, Optigen.  Our dogs are current on  vaccinations, up-to-date on worm meds, and given Heartworm preventative monthly throughout the year.

      We do Not breed, sell, or consign puppies or adults to pet shops, brokers, back yard breeders, or any other commercial dealers. ( nor offer them at auction. 

            We have 0-4 Litters a year; Puppies may be reserved in advance.  Our puppies are available to exceptional loving homes, where they can become a member of the family first, and foremost.   Prospective puppy buyers are interviewed, as we want our puppies to go to the best possible homes where they are responsibly cared for and loved. 

     It is very important that we know the intentions, (hopes, plans, and dreams) of the prospective puppy buyer.  Puppies are selected according to the life style in which they will live. Every effort is made to provide the client with a Labrador Retriever that will best fit with their life style. We want our puppies to go to homes in which they will be a blessing to the family, and visa versa.   

     To further assist us in evaluating the litter, a temperament test is performed at about the puppy's seventh week of age. This test includes evaluating responses to: Sound Sensitivity, Restraint, Retrieving, Following, Correction, Recovery Coming When Called. 

    Our puppies are born & raised inside our house where they receive lots of tender loving care insuring they will be well socialized.  They also receive exercise outdoors to properly develope their motor skills.

     Before going to their new home, Canaanland Labrador puppies, receive their first puppy  vaccinations  (Progard Puppy DPv), and are de-wormed with Panacur.  

     All  puppies are sent home with complete feeding and care instructions as well as educational  materials to make the transition of the puppy from our home to your home as smoothly as possible. 

     We have 10 years shipping experience with 100% success rate. We use American Airlines -Priority Parcel (Counter to Counter) or Northwest Airlines, and will ship out of St. Louis International or Memphis, Tennessee International airport, depending on who has the best flight arrangements for the puppy or dog.
