Fully Health Tested Fox Red Labrador at Stud

County / Town: Norfolk

Description

Ronnie is KC registered, fully health tested, proven, athletic and a good stamp of a dog who picks up on multiple high profile shoots in Norfolk. He has FTCH in his lines and is producing some really lovely pups with brilliant temperaments. He is gentle with maiden bitches and available for natural or AI. 

I have kept back a pup from one of his previous litters and she can be seen with Ronnie, she has the same great personality and a lovely nature. Ronnie’s pups have proven to be great working dogs but also great pets who are calm and biddable and would be suitable for working or pet homes. 

Ronnie has a lovely temperament and is great with other dogs, children and people. He is brilliant with all game and has excelled out in the field. Ronnie has been a pleasure to train, he is very steady, very biddable and a brilliant working gundog. He is confident at retrieving game in and out of water and a good hunter, covering a large or small area and will happily hunt in thick cover. This year I plan to do  working tests with him.

His Eyes are unaffected, Hips 3/3 and Elbows 0/0.

Bitches are entitled to 2 matings 48-72hours apart, in the unlikely event that the bitch does not conceive, I will need proof from your vet or ultrasound technician and a free covering at the next season will be honoured. A copy of Ronnie’s pedigree and health tests can be seen and photo’s and videos can be sent on request.

Please don’t hesitate to contact me for more information. 
Thanks

🐶 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.
