Brigburn Labradors have been established since 1980 and are based in Northumberland, North East England.
After 34 years of breeding Labradors our philosophy remains the same; temperament, health and type are given equal importance in our breeding programme. What use is a Labrador without a Labrador temperament or a Labrador that can’t enjoy an active life through joint or eye problems, or for that matter a Labrador that doesn’t look like a Labrador? We work and show our Labradors. We have bred Champions in the ring and Field Trial award winners at home and abroad; and are always happy to talk to anyone looking for a Labrador as a companion, for show or to work. Elbow Dysplasia is a major problem in the breed and therefore we have used the scheme ever since it became available almost 20 years ago. |
The Labradors we breed from at Brigburn have the basic hip, elbow and eye tests; and we breed only from low scoring dogs with up to date eye certificates. Additionally, our breeding stock are elbow x-rayed for signs of elbow dysplasia and DNA tested for PRCD1. We also use further DNA tests as appropriate -see individual dogs for further information.
