Our waiting list is now open for Honey’s planned Autumn 2023 litter.

Sire : Polnessan Prometheus - Diesel

Dam : Pure Sweet Delight at NookonLyne - Honey

We are over the moon to announce that we have a planned mating with our stunning girl Honey and Diesel who is a lovely Dark Fox Red shade of yellow. This particular mating was deliberately chosen to produce puppies with fabulous Health Testing by parentage.

The unprecedented demand for puppies over the last couple of years has had serious implications on the health and welfare of many puppies with a sharp rise in avoidable Health Conditions due to unethical breeding and little or no Health Testing.

We are therefore very proud that due to this incredibly hard to find impeccable equally matched CLEAR Health Testing of BOTH Diesel and Honey ALL puppies in this litter are Guaranteed to be 100% Hereditary Clear of the 225 Genetic Health Conditions as opposed to Hereditary Unaffected which is an unknown quantity until a puppy is DNA tested. Currently this makes this litter one of the best tested litters by parentage in the UK.

Nook on Lyne Labradors are a Fully Qualified 5 Star Licensed Kennel Club Breeders of Extensively Health Tested Pure Bred Labradors. We are incredibly proud to be one of a handful of Qualified Breeders in the UK having successfully completed the nationally recognised Ofqual Regulated Level 3 Certificate in Dog Breeding, Litter Socialisation and Welfare.  We have recently been ranked No 3 Greatest Labrador Breeders in the UK by PupVine an achievement that we are absolutely thrilled and overjoyed with.

We are also currently studying towards a Diploma in Canine Care, Behaviour & Welfare and also undertake annual Continuing Professional Development (CPD) in order to develop new skills and enhance our current abilities in order to be the very best we can.

Having been awarded a 5 Star Licence means that we meet the higher welfare standards which in turn helps potential puppy buyers know that we are doing more to make sure your puppies and their parents are happy and healthy.

At Nook on Lyne Labradors we are passionate breeders who embrace that we have a moral & ethical responsibility to ensure the welfare of our beloved dogs and their puppies is at the forefront of our breeding programme.

The ethos of any of our breeding involves dedicating an incredible amount of time & expense with the aim of breeding ethically & responsibly to pass on most importantly superb health to all of our puppies together with the desirable qualities & traits of looks, temperament & confirmation.

As a small breeder our passion is the Labrador Retriever and by only having a maximum of 2 litters a year this allows us to dedicate all our our time and resources into raising our litters to the best of our ability and the fabulous reviews we have received on our Nook on Lyne Website shows our level of commitment.

Subject to availability we use Highly Respected Orthopaedic Specialists at PupScan who provide a Ultrasound Service. By using this Diagnostic Technique Specialists are able to confirm normal hip development of puppies at approximately 6 weeks of age before they leave for their new homes.

The first 16 weeks of a puppies life are crucial for learning & development. With this in mind we have designed a puppy development room that allows for this window of opportunity for puppies to learn both human and canine socialisation and stimulation skills, play and learning about boundaries of behaviour.

We have Litter Socialisation Protocols in place from birth with Early Neurological Stimulation (ENS) and Early Scent Introduction (ESI) starting at day 3 for 14 days.

Socialisation continues up until the puppies leave us to ensure our puppies are exposed to as many different and relevant physical and audio stimuli as possible including different textures, surfaces, levels, recall, audio exposure of fireworks, gunshots, sirens, children playing, dogs barking and loud bangs as well as the usual household noises. .

We undertake comprehensive puppy profiling in order to help new owners and ensure puppies are placed in the correct homes.

By observing individual puppies from the day they are born and noting the reactions they show to various stimuli over several weeks allows us to gain a better idea of each individual puppies temperament and traits as they develop.

These careful observations are then used to create a personalised profile for each Puppy and allow us to provide new owners with an individual specific tailored plan for their new puppy to take home.

We want to ensure our puppies and new owners are fully supported when your puppy is transitioned into their new home. We do this by funding your place on a remote puppy training course - The Puppy Pod together with a funded 12 month subscription with VidiVet.

The online Puppy Pod training course is designed to bridge the gap between your puppy leaving us and starting puppy classes with you. You will also have access to a Qualified Dog Trainer and Behaviourist

VidiVet delivers Veterinary Expertise 24/7 365 days a year without having to book a consultation.

Puppies are born and reared in our home, they are started on a worming programme at 2 weeks old and are also wormed at 4,6 & 8 weeks with Drontol & Milbermax, they are weighed daily for the the first 2 weeks to ensure adequate daily weight gain, then weekly until 8 weeks. They are microchipped at 6 weeks and vet checked between 7 and 8 weeks at which time they will be given their first vaccinations.

They will be familiar with a crate and have excellent whistle recall before they leave at 8/9 weeks old.
