Labradors are friendly, happy-go-lucky dogs. This outgoing, boisterous breed makes a great adventure companion for enthusiastic, energetic owners, and they are often used as guide dogs. Here are some key facts regarding Labrador stud dogs.
Finding a Labrador stud dog: what should you look for?
- Choose a stud with a caring, friendly personality – if there are any signs of aggression, look for an alternative stud
- Ask about the stud’s medical history to ensure he does not carry any genetic disorders, such as cancer, progressive retinal atrophy or hip or elbow dysplasia
- Examine the legs to ensure they are not too short or long for the breed
- Avoid inbreeding by ensuring the mating pair are not closely related
- Consider the colour pairing of the bitch and stud – two yellow Labradors will only ever produce yellow puppies, however, chocolate and black dogs may have mixed colour litters
What are the average fees for a Labrador stud?
Average stud fees for Labradors are between £250-£650, depending on the breeder and the colour of the stud dog.
Three tips for finding a Labrador stud:
- You may prefer to choose a stud that has successfully sired at least one healthy litter previously
- A good example of the breed will have documents of Kennel Club registration
- You may wish to see a copy of the stud’s DNA background
What is the average litter size of Labrador?
A Labrador’s average litter size is six to eight pups, and their gestation period is in the region of 63 days.
