Tanwarragold Labradors is a family friendly, experienced and professional breeder of sound quality Labrador Retrievers. Registered with DOGSNSW we are bound by a strict Code of Ethics, covering responsible dog ownership and breeder responsibilities relating to the keeping, welfare, breeding and selling of dogs. This ensures you a healthy, happy and well-adjusted puppy.
In black and white…. here at Tanwarragold Labradors we offer stunning puppies true to breed standard along with harbouring exceptional temperaments ready to undertake the different roles life has to offer. From family pets, companions for the elderly, emotional support roles, school support roles and therapy dog positions we can proudly say we have homed many happy and important puppies over the past 30 years. We truly believe every dog that enters this world has a purpose, big or small.
TANWARRAGOLD focusses on providing an idyllic lifestyle and an environment that enhances the quality of life for each and every dog. Life on the farm provides the Labradors with wide open spaces to exercise and play, along with familiarising them with other pets and animals. Our Labradors are part of our family, which ensures they have beautiful temperaments, are sociable and most importantly, good with children.
We strongly believe in ethical breeding which guarantees our furry friends get the best out of life. We work closely with our veterinarians to ensure everyone is happy and healthy and that we have medical support when we need it most! Our dogs are temperament tested, health tested, DNA tested to ensure puppies are not affected by any genetic diseases and Hip and Elbow Scored to improve the breed overall and minimise the risk of Hip Dysplasia.
Our puppies are whelped (born) in our family home to closely supervise and monitor their neonatal development. During this time we track every individual puppy which includes weighing and documenting observations. We also begin their early socialisation regime.
Socialisation is the process of exposing your puppy to different people, animals, places, and situations, so they can learn how to behave appropriately and confidently in various scenarios. Creating safe and enjoyable new experiences for your pup will help them become a confident and resilient adult
Firstly we begin through ENS training, which boosts brain development, improves circulation and immune system development, and stimulates the neurological system, improving stress responses in later life. As they grow and develop we begin to introduce and expose them to other neurological stimulations: For example:, adults (both men and women), toddlers, hats, car sounds, throwing of sticks, loud bangs, dropping of loud objects etc. As they grow older and move into their forever homes we encourage further exposure as they grow. E.g. Parking at a train station and hearing the trains rattle by, hanging by the window as the garbage truck grumbles past, visiting a park, shopping …the list goes on.
TANWARRAGOLD Labradors is based in Central West NSW, just a short drive from the city of Bathurst, however, transport can be arranged through discussion. All puppies will be registered (papered) with DOGSNSW, vet checked, wormed, vaccinated and microchipped before venturing into their new homes. You also receive a complimentary puppy starter pack and 6 weeks Pet Insurance to ensure a smooth transition for you and your newest family member.
We like to remember Josh Billings’ quote
“A dog is the only thing on earth that loves you more than he loves himself”
