Woods And Waters
White Labs
What you need to know!
Here at Woods and Waters our goal has always been to produce the most intelligent and aesthetic White Labradors. We have spent years researching and traveling across the country to find the most beautiful, boxy-headed, White Labradors. We take great pride in our dogs abilities, that is why we do special ENS and ESI training. Assuring you are not only going home with one of the most beautiful Labradors, but also one of the smartest.
GENETIC TESTING
Some Labradors are prone to certain genetic diseases that can cause many issues. That is why we genetic test our dogs to make sure that they are cleared for these common problems. Whether they are directly cleared or cleared by lineage , we guarantee our dogs will not have any genetic diseases.
POTTY TRAINING
We begin the house training process for your puppy while they are still with us. By pick-up day all the pups will be trained to a potty tray, which makes the transition to house training much easier than normal. Most of our pups are house trained within one to two weeks of going home with their new families!
WEEKLY PUP-DATES
Every week we send out what we call our weekly pup-dates to everyone with a deposit on a current litter. These updates are about a page long consist of all the information regarding the puppies' development. We also cover the curriculum they are learning that week, how mama is doing, and any kind of puppy pick-up information you might need to know.
ENS/ ESI TRAINING
Woods and Waters Labradors is committed to providing you a puppy that is going to excel in life. Which is why we incorporate Early Neurological Stimulation and Early Scent Introduction into our program! This will equip your future fur baby to be capable of much more than just fetch and sit! It's the reason we get so many compliments on how well mannered and brave our puppies are when they go to their forever home! It also makes them some of the easiest puppies to house train.
PUPPY EVALUATIONS
When the puppies are 7 weeks old we preform an evaluation on each puppy. This helps everyone get to know each puppy's individual personality before pick-up day. Knowing more about a puppy helps families choose the right puppy for their family and understand how to better care for them in the future.
Our evaluation consists of the following categories.
Motivation Level
Sensitivities
Confidence
Assertiveness
Nerve Strength
​
Energy Level
Human Focus
Tenderheartedness
Friendliness
Prey Drive
Badass breeder curriculum
ALWAYS AKC
Our Labradors are always AKC certified. That means they are recognized by the American Kennel Club as purebred Labrador Retrievers.
We follow a curriculum call the Ultimate Badass Breeder Guide. This program is made to help puppies become the best version of themselves and create confident, socialized puppies who are ready to take on the world!
ENGLISH VS. AMERICAN
English labs and American labs are both AKC-certified and both make for wonderful pets. English labs tend to be more calm with boxier heads, shorter snouts and legs, with a thick softer coat. While American Labs also known as field labs, tend to be higher energy with a slimmer build, a pointer head and snout. Typically English labs make great show dogs and American Labs make great hunting dogs. Although, there isn't a true boundary as to what an English or American Lab can do. And our labs are proof of that, having a mix of English and American genealogy, to give every family the best of both worlds. We breed with the intent to have the beautiful boxy heads of an English lab with a more athletic lean body type of an American lab.
LIMITED REGISTRATION
All of Woods and Waters Labradors come with Limited AKC Registration.
DEWCLAWS REMOVED
With Labradors being an active breed, their dewclaws can get snagged on things and rip off. This causes a lot of trauma and pain. All our puppies have their dewclaws removed at a very young age so you will never have to worry about your dog going through an experience like that.
WHITE COAT
White Labradors are some of the most beautiful dogs in the world. That is why we are striving to produce the most paper white Labradors you can find. Although we have some of the whitest Labradors around, we cannot guarantee a completely white coat. As with all white Labradors, there can be some cream elements to them such as ears, tails, etc.
MICROCHIPPED
We have all of our puppies microchipped. We do this to ensure that if your dog goes missing they can easily be identified and brought back to their home. We use AKC Reunite Microchips.
TEMPERAMENT
Although Labradors are known for being great family pets, we go above and beyond most breeders with our training program. We strive to produce calm tempered, but also active, white Labradors that will fit into any family! Which is why we put all our puppies through a daily training program which makes their temperament and confidence even better than your average Labrador retriever!
LOVE AND ATTENTION
We have always preferred to keep our program on the smaller end so all of our dogs get the necessary attention, love, and freedom that every dog deserves.
