Sterling Silver Labs

Sterling Silver Labs of North Carolina was established in 2024. We've been lifelong lovers and owners of the Labrador breed. The decision to become breeders of this magnificent breed was a huge decision for our family and one that wasn't taken lightly. We knew to do right by our dogs and buyers there'd be a lot of work and requirements to meet to do things the right way.

We'd always been on the buyer side of all of our past and current Labradors. That being said we knew some things we would want to offers others from the breeder support side we wanted to strive for, as many breeders lack the support and "customer service" side of their breeding programs to their puppies families. We also wanted to strive for breeding healthy, good temperamented dogs who'd produce healthy puppies with great temperaments for an array of companionship roles, aiming to breed quality, not quantity and to follow ethical breeding practices to produce top of the line companions.

It's far to common nowadays to come across smoke and mirror type backyard breeders everywhere who've taken no care or time to breed healthy, good temperamented dogs. Taking little effort or time to produce healthy dogs and often times breeding dogs that aren't improving the breed or are breeding quality in the first place. Back yard breeders are a problem many families sadly face and pay the price for as well as their loved companions they've bought from them. We've seen our fair share of them over the years when searching for our very own family companions.

Our Labs (your puppy's parents) are all genetic tested and all genetic tests can be found here under our "Genetic Testing Results" tab. Puppies are registered through the AKC, each family is sent via email a "welcome to the family" pdf packet within  48 hours of their puppy's scheduled pickup which includes a copy of their puppy's parents genetic tests, puppy guide, microchip information, and a copy of your puppy's health record which lists your puppy's dewormings they received at 2,4,6, and 8 weeks, their 1st puppy vaccination they received between 6-8 weeks old, and what they're due for by your veterinarian and when. 

All puppies come with a folder that has their keepsake birth certificate with their newborn paw prints, time and date of birth on it. AKC registration application, original health record, microchip information and microchip number to transfer into your name, and litter certificate.
