Hi,
We’ve been to view a litter of labs ( spent months researching and turned down a huge amount and had our hearts set on this litter due to excellent breeding history etc ) extremely happy with breeder, dogs and puppies are beautiful and well looked after, quizzed us a lot which I appreciated, the only thing thing we’re unsure on is how excitable the dam and sire were ( and the rest of the dogs there ) They’re beautiful and very friendly but very very jumpy. I know labs are and we’ve had them in the past and we will be training etc as we have young children so will want to limit that as much as possible. We were there over an hour and the whole time they climbing all over us etc. Is this a red flag ? Or normal behaviour ? Or is it just that the training hasn’t been done ? Does it mean our potential pup will be the same, or is it dependant on the work we’ve put in?
I just want to be 100% certain that this is the right litter for us. Like I said, everything else I couldn’t fault - they’re champion show dogs so I assume
They’ve had a lot of training - or is this just labs for you? ( I’ve had other labs and they were not as jumpy as this )
Sorry loads of questions - opinions would be great thank you
