Before you call
A black Labrador is a Labrador Retriever with that coat color, not a separate breed. Ask the breeder about the colors of both parents and their health tests.
- Health results for both parents. Good Labrador Retriever breeders test for hips and elbows (OFA or PennHIP), an eye exam and a DNA test for exercise-induced collapse (EIC), and show you the paperwork.
- See the mother with the litter, in person or on a live video call, not only photos.
- A real breeder asks you questions about your home and schedule, and often has a waitlist.
- Never wire money or pay with gift cards or crypto before you have seen the puppy. That is how most puppy scams work.
