About Us

Country Style Living

Bringing 16 years experience as responsible Labrador Retriever breeders, we provide families in and out of Arizona with healthy and well tempered Labrador puppies. Located in Clear Water Farms Community, our American & English Labradors Retrievers live on 2 acres providing ample room to run, play, and swim!

Our kennel offers American & English Labrador Retriever puppies in Chocolate, Yellow & Black. Each of our lab puppies are released with limited AKC registration. We are excited to invite you and your family to our home. With meeting our Labradors, it offers the chance to gain a sense of temperament and personality in order to connect with the perfect puppy.

Reliable and Trustworthy

From start to finish we work closely with our veterinarian office, Animal Medical Center of Surprise (AMCS). This ensures each puppy receives proper care from start to finish. Our veterinarian staff performs dewclaw removal including a physical examination from head to tail. https://amcofsurprise.com/ (623)-295-1811.

Between the age of 3-5 days old, our veterinarian performs dew claw removal along with a full body examination. At 6 weeks of age, each puppy will undergo a secondary physical examination through AMCS. At that time each puppy will receive their individualized dosage of Pyrantel oral de-worming and 1st round parvovirus shot. This comprehensive examination will also check for any indication of heart murmur's, hernia's, or cleft pallet bite.

While in our care, puppies will begin early stages of desensitization, by introducing sounds and environmental elements to stimulate and promote situational awareness. During the first two weeks, each litter will complete early neurological stimulation exercises.

Genetic Health & Disease Screening

Working to maintain the integrity and lineage of the Labrador Retriever breed, AZ Lab Lovers has committed resources to ensure a safe and healthy breeding program. Each breeding Sire and Damsel has undergone DNA genetic testing to meet OFA C.H.I.C. requirements as well as AKC BRED with H.E.A.R.T.

These programs recognize breeders for meeting the parent club standard health requirements, The Labrador Club.

Early Neurological Stimulation

ENS requires handling the puppies one at a time while performing a series of five exercises. Listed in order of preference, the handler starts with one pup and stimulates it using each of the five exercises. The handler completes the series from beginning to end before starting with the next pup. The handling of each pup once per day involves the following exercises:1. Tactile stimulation – Holding the pup in one hand, the handler gently stimulates (tickles) the pup between the toes on any one foot using a Q-tip. It is not necessary to see that the pup is feeling the tickle. Time of stimulation 3 – 5 seconds. http://tinyurl.com/ms7ray9w

What Does ENS Do?

When performed correctly, ENS is believed to impact the neurological system by kicking it into action earlier than would be normally expected, the result being an increased capacity that later will help to make the difference in its performance, according to Breeding Better Dogs. ENS is time sensitive and must be performed from the 3rd-16th day of a puppy’s life.
