LITTERS
All puppies at Paregan Labradors are raised in the home. Puppies are raised on ENS and PUPPY CULTURE. Puppies are taught crate training, basic leash skills, markers, how to follow a lure, manding, handling and toilet training, to name a few things. Puppies are exposed to different types of people, sounds, surfaces, cats and other dogs. We are proud Dogs Queensland breeders. Our Prefix number is available on request.

What is ENS?
Early Neurological stimulation (ENS) and Early scent Introduction (ESI) ENS are simple exercises to which you expose puppies from days 3-16 to help aid their development, resilience and coping mechanisms. These early puppy stimulation exercises don't take long to perform but can pay off huge dividends in the long run.

What is PUPPY CULTURE?
On the top level, Puppy Culture is a socialization and training program specifically developed for puppies, from birth through the end of their critical socialization period.

How are puppies picked?
Puppies will be suitable for a wide array of roles and will be assessed according to match them with their potential families.
Some puppies may be available for show homes or assistance dog homes. Puppies are picked by us to ensure the best possible matching with new families. Puppies will be chosen based on results from the VOLHARD PUPPY APTITUDE TEST.

Price
We like to be transparent about our prices. Our puppies are $3500 on limited registration. The price is a reflection of the money and work that goes into raising a litter.
What is a guardian home?
Sometimes there are puppies that stand out to us and that we want to use back into our program. We want our puppies to grow up with a family, not kennels. These puppies are placed in families and come back to us for breeding only. Guardian home puppies come at a lower price but a contract will be in place to ensure smooth sailing. Contact us to learn more.
