					<description><![CDATA[If you&#8217;ve ever had a dog run away or even worse, stolen, then you know the heartache that comes with that feels beyond repair&#8230; I&#8217;m sure any pet owner would agree that it is certainly as hard as losing your own child. There are more and more reports of stolen dogs, especially purebreds, and also commonly in urban areas. Unfortunately, due to the economic downturn and many people strapped for money, dog thefts, and more so, purebred dog thefts, are on the rise, especially the ones that are most popular at the top of the AKC highest registration list, such [&#8230;]]]></description>

I couldn&#8217;t do it, I&#8217;d want to keep them all!&#8221;, or something along those lines. And my initial response is &#8220;It was hard for me at first!&#8221;. I&#8217;ve been working here with the Stanleys for over 7 years now, and I still remember my first summer sending home puppies. I&#8217;d hold the little sweet babes I just watched grow their first 8 weeks, and say to Donna, &#8220;Can we just keep them???&#8221;.

					<description><![CDATA[This is a hard blog to post, but it is one that has been on my heart for years.  In the world of professional dog breeding there are some rules of thumb to remember when evaluating the motivation of the breeder. First of all, someone who is trying to better the breed MUST have an alternate income. If someone breeds dogs &#8220;for a living&#8221;, then the motivation is profit.  If the breeder has a well-established business or well- paying job, then labradors can be a hobby that they put their well-earned money into. Many people ask us what we do [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s a fact that some breeders are far more honest and ethical in their practices than others. Even breeders that people think are reputable, are often not. Sadly, genuinely ethical and reputable breeders are in the minority of breeders as a whole. Read on to see what to expect from a breeder who is genuinely reputable. WHAT YOU SHOULD EXPECT FROM A &#8216;GOOD&#8217; BREEDER The checklist below is to assist you in locating a reputable breeder: A reputable breeder will always find homes for their pups far in advance&#8230; they are typically reserved before even being born.

					<description><![CDATA[Spay or Neutering your puppy &#8211; When Should You do it? Most people hear that you should spay or neuter your puppy as soon as possible (as young as 6 months old), so as to diminish the unwanted puppy population.  While we agree that there is unfortunately a growing population of unplanned puppies, there are also valid arguments for waiting to spay or neuter a dog, that affect its lifetime health.  The article below covers the scientific evidence behind those arguments. -Endless Mt.
