Our goal as a breeder is to bring endless joy into homes with healthy, quality family companions. Our Labradors are not just pets; they are cherished members of the family, bred to be excellent companions who bring warmth and happiness to every household. We understand that welcoming a new puppy into your life is a significant commitment, which is why we offer our customers a lifetime support system. No matter the question or concern, we are here to provide guidance and reassurance as you embark on this beautiful journey with your pup. Our passion for the Labrador breed runs deep, and our hearts overflow with joy at the difference our Labradors make in our lives and the lives of those around us. We are grateful for the opportunity to share this journey with our Heaven Bound Labrador family, friends, and communities. Together, we celebrate the love and happiness that these remarkable dogs bring into our world.
**Waiting List Process**
Before welcoming our adorable puppies, we establish a waiting list for the dam and sire's litter. Individuals whose applications have been approved can reserve a puppy by placing a non-refundable deposit of $500. Please note that this deposit secures your position on the waiting list but does not guarantee a specific "pick of the litter."
**Choosing Your Puppy!**
Following the puppies' birth, we will send you a detailed puppy match questionnaire. This tool will assist us in identifying the ideal match for you, taking into account your family dynamics, lifestyle, training preferences, and future goals. As the puppies grow under our careful supervision, we closely monitor their social interactions, confidence, drive, temperament, and personalities. If we cannot provide you with a puppy of your desired gender, we will make every effort to accommodate you. We aim to ensure that the puppy you receive is the best match for your family.
**Litter Updates**
We're excited to share weekly pictures and video updates with you! You'll also receive updates on the litter's growth, health, and temperament. We can't wait for you to see how they're all doing!
**Where Are Heaven Bound Puppies Raised?**
As a small family-owned breeder, we are committed to providing each puppy and its future family with the personal attention they deserve. Our puppies are born and raised in our home, ensuring they are well-socialized.
**What Program Does HBL Use to Raise Puppies?**
We utilize the Puppy Culture program and Early Neurological Stimulation (ENS), a method developed by the U.S. Military as part of their "bio-sensor" or "super puppy" initiative and further studied by Dr. Carmen Battaglia. ENS is conducted during the puppies' early developmental stage, followed by their socialization period—the next critical phase ensuring optimal growth and adaptability. This program prepares them for socialization, teaching them how to interact with and trust humans, other dogs, and other species. ENS guarantees that your puppies receive the emotional development necessary to handle socialization challenges effectively.
