Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, I am registered breeder of Labrador Retrievers with Dogs Australia (formally known as ANKC) 

Dogs Australia is the only Purebred Pedigree Registry in Australia that is Internationally recognised. 

No, we do not allow puppy visits.

Puppies, especially those under 12 weeks are incredibly vulnerable. Their immune systems are still developing, making even the most common pathogens dangerous. An innocent visit can expose a litter to:

• Parvovirus, which can linger in environments and be brought in unknowingly,
• Respiratory infections(kennel cough), intestinal parasites, or other contagious illnesses that could severely harm or even be fatal to a puppy that has a underdeveloped immune system.

By not allowing in person visits, we maintain a sterile, controlled environment, ensuring our puppies receive the healthiest start possible in life—with every precaution taken. 

Yes, we encourage potential buyers to meet the parents of the puppies to get a better idea of their temperament and physical characteristics.  Please understand that while we welcome potential puppy buyers, once puppies are born we do not allow in person parent/puppy visitation. 

 The Pet Exchange Register uses ‘Source Numbers’ to register  anyone who is involved in supplying dogs and cats to families  or individuals – this includes shelters and pounds, foster carers,  commercial breeding establishments, pet shops or small scale/ hobby breeders. 

 It is now a legal requirement that all advertisements in Victoria  for dogs and cats, puppies and kittens, include a valid Source  Number as well as the microchip number of the animal being  sold or given away
