The
Nursery...
Welcome
to the nursery. Calabria Kennel offers 2 - 3 litters a year. The
balance of our time is spent showing our Labradors all over the country. This is a hobby for me and
my family and not a business. I breed with the thought of keeping a pup
for show and every penny that is made is put back into my Labradors.
Our pups come with a two-year contract. They will be
current with all shots for their age and are given a medical health
certificate and administered any medical needs by my veterinarian. All pups are sold on a limited registration (not for
breeding) and are registered with the AKC (purebred).
The pups are raised in my home with tender loving care, not in a barn or housing outside. I
have designed and built them a nursery
that has all the comforts from my home. When they are old enough they start going potty
outside and have activities and exercise time throughout the day. The
puppies are very well socialized and have had many experiences of the daily household activities
in the home. All pups stay together in a junior box which has a place
to eliminate. They are always kept on dry bedding and clean linens. When visiting the pups you and I will ask lots of question
to each other to make sure the pup is right for you.
Contract should be signed, date of pick up for pup is listed, a crate
to go home in is a must, and you need to have a fenced in yard or a receipt
of some kind of hidden fence for puppy security and safety. You will be
given a list of books to read, things to buy,
and info on basic care of the pup. A 50% deposit is required to attain a pup (no
refund). After the purchase of the puppy if it is impossible for you to keep
him/her for some reason,
50% of the full amount is returned when puppy is brought back to me. The dog
you have bought from me will be returned to me for the rest of its life.
That is my promise I keep to the pups I brought into the world. It is my
responsibility as a breeder.
I am registered with the New Jersey dog federation and I
belonged to both New Jersey Specialty Labrador Retriever Clubs. I have
competed in Obedience, AKC Hunt Tests and Breed Shows. My main interest is breeding
Labradors for exhibit and for the love of the breed. Enjoy!
