About Our Labrador Retriever Breeding Program
Labradors are renowned for their eagerness to please, trainability, and loyalty, quickly becoming indispensable family members. They are exceptionally loving and gentle with children while also being full of personality and energy. It's no surprise that Labradors are the number one breed in the nation for family pets.
At WizeDogs Labradors, we are preservation breeders dedicated to ensuring the soundness, temperament, and uncompromising quality of the Labrador Retriever. Our foundation is built on strong ethical values and integrity that align with the AKC breed standard. We are proud to
be Breeders of Merit with the AKC, boasting
over 25 years of experience. We are located in the West Valley, just outside of Surprise, Arizona.
Our Labradors truly have it all! They possess kind, energetic dispositions and the highest quality conformation you'll find in Arizona. Our breeding program features Champion Bloodlines and Field Hunting Champions. We only select the best quality dogs for breeding, ensuring they come from generations of happy, healthy pups. This endeavor is a joint collaboration with our good friend and experienced breeder, Duke Donahue of Quail Chase Labrador Retrievers, whose champion dogs sire our impressive dams.
We stand by our guarantee! As Breeders of Merit through
the American Kennel Club (AKC), we ensure that all of
our Labrador Retrievers are free from hereditary conditions
such as joint disease, hip dysplasia, and hereditary heart
disease before they are considered for our breeding program.
A Board-Certified Veterinarian thoroughly examines
every dog in our breeding program, and the results are
approved and graded by the OFA (Orthopedic Foundation
for Animals). Once cleared, these results are documented
on the dog's pedigree with the AKC. Additionally, we conduct
26 different DNA tests through Paw Print Genetics and
DDC Veterinary to ensure we produce the healthiest
Labrador Retrievers possible.
This due diligence allows us to offer a
2-year health guarantee for our puppies!
