Welcome
to Barefoot Labradors of Killingworth
Barefoot Labradors, located Killingworth, CT, specializes in AKC black, yellow and
chocolate Labrador Retrievers for the family.
Our English style labs are AKC,
OFA,
OFEL,
CERF registered. They enjoy 12
wooded acres surrounded by Connecticut State Park and Killingworth Land Trust, and swim
in lab-friendly Pond Meadow Brook.
We breed for sound health and good temperament. We raise our puppies in a home environment and socialize them through frequent handling and play.
From their third to 16th day, we give them a series of gentle neurological stimulation
(The Bio Sensor Program) to improve cardio vascular performance, tolerance to stress and
resistance to disease. Also, during the 8-weeks they are with us, they listen to National Public Radio (NPR).
All of our pups have Dew Claws removed. They are examined by a Vet at 2-4 days and again at 6-weeks (1st immunization).
Our puppies go to their new families with immunization records, AKC Litter Pedigree Certificate, copies of their parents' OFA & CERF certificates, and general information about care and training.
They are sold with a limited AKC registration to help protect the breed from genetic faults. They come with a 30-month Hip, Eye and Health Guarantee.
Pups from our litters have become service dogs for
the deaf and physically disabled through the National Education of Assistance Dog Services (NEADS)
West Boylston, MA and Forget-me-not Farm, Scotland, CT. "Able" as a pup. "Able" in training as a service dog. Luna and her pups How to care for your new puppy
