Working Labrador Stud Dog Available, KC, Fully Health Tested

County / Town: Shropshire

Description

“Keale” born and bred here at Tricymoedd, out of Tricymoedd Red Blossom, “Bee” and sired by Bolebrokeold Wrens Warren, “Mauser” in June 2021. 

With his second season under his belt he has proved himself more than worthy of his place in the picking up team at Three Valleys. Bold, keen and fast he has a temperament to die for. He is a classy dog with substance and stylish movement, typical of Tricymoedd Labradors. 

We are very excited for his future and that of his offspring who are also proving to be trainable. He has four offspring in Guide Dog Training and several now working as successful Gun Dogs and three in assistance roles. 

He is a proven stud, KC registered, clear of 14 DNA’s, 0-0 Elbows and 5-4 Hips with a current clear eye certificate. 

Keale is available to health tested bitches.

🐶 Buyer’s Checklist for Gun Dogs

Whether you’re buying, selling, or studding a dog, it’s essential to take the right steps to protect yourself—and the animals involved.

  • Always meet the dog in person at the breeder’s home or kennel—never agree to buy without seeing them first.
  • Ask to see the puppies with their Dam (mother), and the Sire (father) if available.
  • Verify all paperwork:
    • Kennel Club (KC) registration number
    • Date of birth
    • Health screening results
  • Prepare questions to ask the breeder. Some helpful ones include:
    • Did you breed the dog(s) yourself?
    • Can I see where they were bred and raised?
    • How old is the Dam, and how many litters has she had?
    • Was the birth natural or via C-section?
    • Are there any known health issues?
    • Can I see documentation for both Dam and Sire?
    • Will the puppy be vaccinated and wormed before purchase?
  • If something feels off, walk away. Don’t ignore red flags.
  • Ask for advice from a trusted third party if you’re unsure.
  • Take your time. This is a big decision—don’t rush it.
  • Puppies should appear happy, healthy, clean, and curious.
  • You should be allowed to see and handle all puppies in the litter, not just the one you're considering.
  • Never buy a puppy younger than 8 weeks old.
  • Avoid any puppies that show signs of illness—e.g. runny eyes, weakness, or diarrhoea.
  • Is the whelping pen clean?
  • Do the dogs have access to fresh water, clean food, and adequate space?
  • The living conditions can say a lot about the breeder’s standards.
  • Ensure you receive the KC registration form and all relevant documents at the time of payment.
  • Write up a simple contract to protect both buyer and seller—especially important in case circumstances change.
  • Never agree to buy a puppy in a car park or public place. Always go to the breeder's premises.

🧠 Final Thought

Buying a gun dog is your responsibility. Do your homework on both the breed and the breeder. Make sure your decision is informed, confident, and in the best interest of the dog.
