Upcoming Litters

 

2010

SCL's Lady Hot Tub Aella was bred to CPR/HRCH Lord Baltimore V MH in a repeat breeding of one of our best breedings ever. Aella is a litter mate of GMPR HR Swift Creeks Wanna Dip SH and she is OFA Good(hips) elbows Normal, and EIC Clear. Aella is a beautiful yellow female with a great nose and marking ability. Her dam and sire are from two of the best pointing Labrador bloodlines, GMPR Wannamaker's Hot Tub SH and Swift Creek's Lady Guinevere NBDCA CH who is a Trieven dog. Aella has been very easy to train and was ready to go to South Dakota pheasant hunting at 10 months of age. She has a great disposition and handles very well in the field or in the house. She truly represents what we are trying to produce at SCL and puts it in her puppies. Lordy is a great looking black Lab who's hips are OFA Good-elbows normal, and is EIC Clear. We competed dogs against Lordy for several years. He is the best bird finding pointing Lab we have ever seen in 11 years of judging and competing Labs. Lordy has sired several litters and passes his great traits on to his offspring. Lordy was sired by the great pointing Lab GMPR Sir's Mighty Eli SH who sired many GMPR's as well as other titled dogs. More information on Lordy can be found at MC Labradors. We are excited about this litter and kept a female pup from the first breeding and will likely keep a male from this litter for our breeding/bloodline program. Aella is black factored(BBee) and Lordy carries all three colors(BbEe). This litter produced some of the best puppies we have ever had/seen. These pups learned every thing they were exposed to the first time. They crate trained instantly and house training was the same. They swam the first time they were exposed to water and were fearless. The puppies have a lot of point and drive in them and are very biddable. A pro trainer who bought one from the first breeding has deposits on two from the upcoming litter. Two other pro trainers have said that these are some of the best they have seen. One pup(Sadie) from that litter earned it's AKC Junior Hunter title before it was one year old and will run Derby and SH tests this fall. Our pup Lucy,Sadie's littermate, has earned her AKC JH title as well and will run APLA and AKC SH tests this fall. These two pups were among the youngest to run JH in the events they ran in and more than one judge said they were the best of all that ran in that test. These pups mark falls to perfection on land and water. A big thank you to Mike Carosello of MC Labradors for training and handling Lucy to her AKC JH title. Several references are available from the 2009 litter. Aella whelped her litter August 8th. There are no pups available from this litter.

Lucy, from Aella/Lordy's 2009 litter finishes her AKC Junior Hunter Title June 20, 2010 at just over 1 year old.
The Maggie/Willie litter is sold out  
SCL's Sugar Magnolia was bred March 12 to MPR RattlinRidge's Bronco Bill MH. Maggie whelped her litter May 11th. She had six females and 4 males. The pups will be 7 weeks old June 29th. Maggie is a litter mate of Upon the Wings of an Answered Prayer(Ammo). Ammo was the high point Derby dog in 2009 and shattered the all time record for points earned. Maggie is a beautiful dark chocolate, well muscled Lab with great drive, nose,marking ability,and disposition. She weighs just under 60 pounds. Maggie has been a natural to train and has the most agressive water entry we have seen. She pointed the first bird she saw. Maggie is OFA hips Good /elbows normal, CERF is current, and CNM Clear. Due to family employment issues Maggie will start to run AKC hunt tests in the fall of 2010. She is the complete package and we expect her to attain a Master Hunter title and go on to field trials after that. Willie is a handsome dark chocolate muscular Lab weighing about 75 pounds. He is very intelligent,has great drive, exceptional marking ability, and has been very easy to train. Willie is OFA hips good, elbows normal,CERF is current, PRA/CNM/EIC Clear, heart normal, and DNA profiled. Willie jammed a Derby trial in 2007 along with earning an AKC Senior Hunter title and two Master Hunter passes by the age of 26 months. In 2009 he earned his MPR and entered his first two AKC Field Trial Qualifying Stakes Jamming and Reserve Jamming them. Every dog in Willie's pedigree has AKC titles or APLA titles. Willie was sired by FC HRCH Watermark's Texas Welcome who was the #2 Derby dog in 2001. His two grandsires are 2XNAFC/2XCNFC Ebonstar Lean Mac and CAFC/CFC/AFC Chugach Hill's Jazz's Rascal. For more info and photos of Willie and his owner Joan St. Hilaire click on the link below his picture. Maggie is an EIC carrier. The litter will be micro chipped around 6 weeks of age and then EIC tested. None of the pups in the litter will actually have EIC(Exercise Induced Collapse) but some of the pups may carry one copy of the gene that causes it. It is only an issue for those who are going to breed their dog. For more information on EIC click on the following link: EIC Info. Clear pups will sell for $1400 and carriers for $1100. Deposits are $100 and are refundable. The pups should be ready to go home around July 3rd. There is a link below the pedigrees for litter photos. New photos of the litter will be added each week.

Puppies can be picked up at 7 weeks or shipped after 8 weeks. A $100 deposit is required to reserve your pup. The order in which deposits are received will determine the order in which pups are chosen. We reserve the right to screen clients to assure that our breeding efforts are utilized and that our dogs go to good homes. Please see our puppies page for more about our policies.

While we prefer that you pick up your puppy we do ship pups. Shipping(current airfare, health certificate, crate and $50 airport delivery fee) usually runs about $335 depending on airfare. Puppies will not be shipped until we receive full payment.

If we don't have a litter that suits your needs we would be happy to assist you in finding a pup. We are not a puppy mill and may not have a litter at the time you need to buy a puppy. We know several reputable breeders of exceptional Labradors and provide a free referral service. We want you to own a great pup even if it is not one of ours.
